A History of the Women's Buzzcut

"I don't want to be seen as this very stereotypical idea of a girl, a sexy girl."
More and more women are choosing to shave their hair off. Once seen as unfeminine, the buzzcut is now seen as a way to reclaim independence ... Here's why.

    Right? As a guy I went full bald for a while bc I was self conscious about my hairline... and I found it reduced my stress. It's one less thing to worry about, and if you find out you actually look good bald, then that's a big plus.

    I think every one should shave their head at least once in their life. Guy or girl, hair will grow back but at least you got to have a one-of-a-kind experience. I used to have hair down to my calves and always found myself cutting it a little shorter over the years to layers, shoulder length, Bobs, undercuts and pixies before growing it back to my knees or calves. Finally I just said F it and buzzed it all off. It was a little startling and naked feeling at first I'm not going to lie and say it wasn't making me self-conscious but after a week I actually started to feel really really good about it and free and realized how much I've been edging towards this for years. This is the longest I've ever gone without growing my hair out. Some will say that it doesn't suit everybody but I'm of the persuasion that you wear the hairstyle and it doesn't wear you. Own it and it's yours

Yeah sure it's liberating but the regrowth phase feels like forever and i really cry sometimes missing my long hair. Keep in mind all these things before buzzing it all off.

Like I doubt anyone would do this in my country where You are so judged based on your appearance and where if You go out like this, everyone Will either stare or belittle you. I often do so out of self-harm. But I never cut it so short, but too short as per standard, and because I am not pretty it must be more noticeable... Like Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz used too, by the way. Is it all related? Well I cut it very short today.
