Heaven knows I was deeply attached to my old haircut, more than was strictly necessary... It's been my constant companion for the past five years after all.
But this makes me happy as well! The MAC-people loved it too. I feel all empowered and post-feministic! I was so bored with seeing more and more girls sporting the same haircut, my old fear of looking just like everybody else in a crowd made me go all jittery. And then I was sick of being thought of as "cute" or even "pretty" - I got a text the other day saying that I was "the prettiest mod-girl" and it honestly made me want to throw up. Being cute is a soft option in my book! Recently I've been really paranoid when it comes to female stereotypes - absolutely no idea where that came from. Obviously hair is not a political statement - more like a fascination with short-haired girls that turned into saving a gazillion pictures - but it still feels like something different. I also feel like I should thank Andrei & Kevin for being supportive/neutral in a good way. And that rich guy from my Greek course who told me I definitely shouldn't do it because then I couldn't go to balls anymore (?!?): As an anti-endorsement it was supremely helpful, cheers. And now I'll shut up. It's vaguely shocking that there's so much to say about strings of protein filament...
COOOL!
