The minute I sat on the salon chair to cut my hair, my inner voice kept telling me that I was doing the absolute wrong thing.

Everything was happening so fast and I felt sick at the pit of my stomach – and yes I’m being dramatic – but it’s true though.

I mean what if it doesn’t grow back fast enough, and you all know how hard growing hair can be. Or what if it looks like a botched Rihanna pixie cut? The pressure.

Anyway, I ended up going through with it and honestly it was the best decision I have ever made for my hair and these are the some of the reasons why you shouldn’t hesitate to have the big chop either.

1.It’s going to grow back

Yes, your hair will grow back. Don’t worry about it too much.

2.Healthier hair

Your hair definitely looks and feels healthier after you chop it. I had really thin hair before and I had the hardest time figuring out how to sort it out.

3.You feel like a whole new person

Ever heard of a woman that cuts her hair is about to make some serious changes in her life? Well that is definitely how I felt – it is not an exaggeration.

You feel like you are ready to conquer the world and no one can stop you; besides it’s not a bad feeling to have.

4.The new hairstyle feels weird at first but it will start to grow on you

Yes, you will feel strange, the first time you get your haircut but just give it some time and you’ll start to really enjoy it.

Note: Please get a great stylist that won’t botch your desired look so make sure you research extensively on what you really want and which cut suits your face.
