Growing out my pixie cut!
Hello. I'm 18 years old and I graduated just last year (2012). I had long-ish hair, down to my arm pits (when wet or straightened), and I decided to cut it all off! I live in a very warm and humid climate and having curly hair was just a pain in the butt. Also, being busy with school I never really knew how to do my hair other than straightening and pulling it into a bun. So after years of frustration, I decided to do a pixie cut. I'm 3a so my hair doest curl to the roots and I figured "Oh well then it'll be easy to style if its not so curly anymore." And I was right! I had it cut so that it was shorter on the sides and back and longer on top. It was super cute for awhile because it was new and I was experimenting but now I guess I miss pulling it into a ponytail if Im having a bad hair day. With a pixie cut, its hard to do that. I had to straighten my hair every time I showered and it got old real fast. So, now Im growing it out! Its been 2 months since I got it cut (back in December). I got it trimmed just a few days ago to "shape" it so it wont be so painful when it grows out. I was also slowly getting a mullet, a Kansas City Waterfall, so I had that trimmed. If you're growing out a pixie cut like me, GOOD LUCK! Its going to be awkward and painful but we can do it!
