Finally Revealing my Short Gray Haircut

For the last couple years, I have been a silver hair influencer on Instagram and I grew my hair pretty long and worked with a few hair care brands. It was fun and I love the Silver Sister community, and I think I helped to encourage a few women through their gray hair transition as well as help women realize the gifts that come with middle age, which are profound if you can open your eyes to them. There is a lot of joy to be had when you become less defined by certain roles and defined by others and begin to rediscover yourself. It's like a 2nd childhood. And there is so much freedom and power in it.
Anyway, pro-age, pro-woman, and silver hair influencing was beginning to turn me off as it began to take a Kardashian turn. The last straw was when Roe V. Wade was overturned and I noticed that so many of my colleagues who used the hashtag #womensupportwomen had nothing to say about it.
I also don't really want to pressure women to buy things they don't really need because money is time and time is power and my goal here is to help you obtain all the power you can possibly gain by being the truest you.
I have a website at silverilocks.com where I write a ton of articles intended to help women socially recondition themselves in an empowering way where we trust ourselves and other women and want to be big and take up space in the narrative.

    Haha I’m glad I’m not the only impulsive haircutter. And then it’s thick on top so I become obsessive with thinning and getting it perfect haha.

    I love your haircut! I tried cutting my hair once (using regular scissors which was a big mistake) and haven’t been brave enough to do it again. 😂 Your haircut turned out so lovely! ❤️ I loved the paw print on your shirt! I thought it was purposely stamped on until you saw it and wiped it off 😂 I also love your Doggos so much-such sweeties!!!

    It is kind of a perfect paw print isn't it?? yeah, using kitchen scissors resulted in my hair being 2-3 inches shorter than intended. But oh well! who doesn't love a good hair journey, right?

    I think everybody has the face for most haircuts if they are customized to your face/body shape and personality. But if it feels wrong it will look wrong. Go visit a wig shop and see what you like.

    KZread just suggested your channel to me. My two cents about your DIY hair cuts, I think the shorter one came out better than the "mullet". I cut my own hair one time and messed it up badly so I don't cut it myself anymore. I go to a salon only 2X's a year for a 'long blunt cut' which is enough to keep it healthy & looking neat, it's still easy on the budget at about $140 total for the year including the tips {$60 for a women's hair cut}.I'm letting my long hair turn grey I don't dye it at all which also saves me money. You might want to check out a KZreadr 'Brad Mondo' he's a professional hair stylist & has some great DIY hair cut tutorials, if I were ever to try to cut my own hair again I would follow one of his tutorials.

    I love Brad Mondo! I mean he just makes me feel good and he's so good with hair. The long mullet really didn't feel good to my fingers and honestly, I care more about how it feels than how it looks.Thanks for your comment.

    Hair can be fun, but it can possess me as well. I am actually truly hair obsessed. I am always watching haircutting videos here on KZread and learning about hair science....In another life, I had to have been a hairstylist or dermatologist or something. So, there will likely be a lot of hair related videos here...My next video is about hair product scams especially when it relates to hair loss and I provide other solutions that won't strain your wallet and are most likely to work.

    I liked it long looks good short as well. Sometimes you got to have a change. I have brown and grey hair natural it took me 2 1/2 years to grow out. I just let mine grow lol. I get that feeling of chopping it. I chopped a bit off today not much just ends. I know if l go to the salon they want to make it really short cuz it's fine it really annoys me lol.
