Tell me I'm being stupid

I had my hair cut today, pretty drastically. I tend to not wear it down, ever. Mainly because of a long history of bullying and snide comments over my hair. I like the new cut BUT it was meant to be able to be tied up, and it's too short
Now I'm panicking Blush
Ridiculous I know

Omg your hair is absolutely beautiful. You should wear it down all the time and swish it about with your head held high!

Mrsfrumble · 17/11/2014 18:24

Gosh OP, you're stunning!

JeanetteDanielsBenziger · 17/11/2014 18:29

If I was staring at you it would be because your hair is gorgeous, also you have great eyebrows!

RockMummy · 17/11/2014 18:53

Your hair is gorgeous! I'm a curly girl too and have experienced some negativity over my hair. Stand proud and remember that you have a life that does not revolve around straighteners!

Your hair is gorgeous. It's the hair I should have had, but for some unfortunate mix-up by those idiots in the Department of Genetic Inheritance.

AwkwardSquad · 17/11/2014 19:18

Oh and as PP have said, if they are looking it's to admire. I'd look at you with that hair, and it'd be admiration and envy.

Hard to know from people's faces, though, isn't it? So I do sympathise.

beautyfades · 17/11/2014 19:22

It's lovely. Obviously people will comment if it's changed but honestly it looks nice.

I have a friend who has a 12 year old daughter with beautiful long red hair. A few months ago she was attacked at school. An older girl told a younger one to ' get the ginger' and my friend's daughter was attacked and kicked. Fortunately the attacker was expelled ( partly because she had also attacked a teacher in the past ). I'm just telling you this because children are often picked on for being a bit different. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with them. It's now time for you as an adult to hold your head up high and appreciate yourself as the beautiful young woman you are. Don't let the bullies win!

Gorgeous .

TessTackle · 17/11/2014 19:36

It's so gorgeous good

I've been trying to get my curls back and I'm so envious!

OneLittleLady · 17/11/2014 19:38

it's gorgeous, YOU are gorgeous. I would kill for hair like yours, I've wanted hair like that my whole life, since being really tiny Envy

buttercrumble · 17/11/2014 19:40

I would love your hair, you look beautiful Smile

PumpkinsMummy · 17/11/2014 19:42

I would be staring at you because you are naturally very pretty, and your hair is amazing. I love the colour and the curls are lovely.

500smiles · 17/11/2014 19:44

If people are looking at you, it is because you are head turningly attractive.

You look lovely OP.

SugarPlumpFairy3 · 17/11/2014 22:00

Your hair has serious WOW factor!

I would probably stare at you if I saw you...because I'd be thinking how amazing you look!

It's hard to believe when you've suffered from bullying but look at all these random internet people telling you otherwise :).

dottytablecloth · 17/11/2014 22:16

Love your hair!

Cluffyflump · 17/11/2014 22:26

Love it.
I would stare at you.. Because you look great and I love your hair!

Cocolepew · 17/11/2014 22:28

Love your hair and you have great eyebrows!

r2d2ismyidealman · 17/11/2014 22:36

I know everyone is saying it but I just needed to add to the numbers. Really, please do take the contents here to heart. You have beautiful hair. (And for the record, I didn't see spotty skin either).

goodasitgets · 17/11/2014 22:43

You're also lovely Blush
100% not attention seeking, on week 19 of counselling, I just see a fat and ugly blob. Slow progress

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 17/11/2014 22:52

Anyone can look in the mirror and see a blob. You look gorgeous to me. Smile

ProjectGainsborough · 17/11/2014 23:06

God, people are weird. I have curly hair which people were snide about at school. It's just hair for god's sake. Why on earth would you pick on someone because their hair is different to yours? Totally their problem and not yours.

Your hair looks beautiful, by the way.

FeckTheMagicDragon · 17/11/2014 23:16

SO, let me get this right, you are 5'10" curvy, pretty, with auburn, naturally curly hair. And people look at you?

My guess is its because you are tall, really pretty, with beautiful hair :)

I have straight fair hair (like a million other women). I would kill for your hair

DillydollyRIP · 17/11/2014 23:21

You look lovely, your hair is beautiful, don't hide it my putting it up!
