What made you want to do that then?

Cut all my hair off. Fucking love it! I feel so free, funky and it really suits me. I've had varying reactions to it, and that's fine. I know it's a shock but my hair was only chin length anyway so not that bigger deal.

Reaction 1: Oh my god! You look so different!
Reaction 2: I love it! It really suits you!
Reaction 3: what made you want to do that then?

Reaction 1&2 - Absolutely fine. Not everyone will love it.

Reaction 3 - Bloody annoying. If reaction 3 is accompanied by reaction 1 or 2 then fine. But it feels abrupt and rude by itself.

Am I the only one?

And before the vipers stir - no I'm not crying into my pillow about it and yes, I just chuckle and say "I fancied a change".

I'm curious because I remember reading a thread about people who say "you look so well" and half the thread took it to be a compliment and half the thread thought it meant you look fat.

YANBU, I had a couple of years where I ranged from a Grade 5 to a Grade 1 & loved it.
