We usually talk about taking care of your hair and growing your hair long, but for today’s article, we’ll talk about something else that may or may not be contradictory to our usual cause.
Did you guess the topic right? Yes, here are 5 reasons why you should cut your hair!
1. Your hair is damaged
The most practical reason why you should cut your hair is that it’s already damaged. Holding on to your length despite all the damage can lead to further damages, which isn’t good.
Unfortunately, damaged hair can never be fully recovered. The only thing you can do is to make sure that it’s always nourished and moisturized in order to prevent it from breaking. That’s because when hair breaks, there’s no other way to remove the damage than to cut it all off.
2. It’s part of your haircare routine
But in all honesty, you shouldn’t cut your hair just because it’s damaged. The truth it, trimming your hair should be part of your regular haircare routine, especially if you want to maintain your long and gorgeous crowning glory.
According to hair experts, you should be trimming off at least half an inch every month. Why, you may ask? This is to avoid any possible breakages, like split-ends, that could be brewing from the bottom. It’s basically the haircare equivalent of nipping things in the bud.
3. It’s a symbol of moving on
Have you experienced getting asked by friends, “Did you just go through a break up?” after a recent haircut? Actually, there’s a reason why such jokes exist.
In many cultures, cutting one’s hair is a symbol of moving on and moving forward with life. The more drastic the difference in lengths is, the more people see it as a sign that you’re moving on from something in your life.
4. You want to be trendy
Trending hairstyles come and go all the time. One day it’s this hairstyle, the next, it’s this other one. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to keep up with the trends.
If you’re interested in always staying within the ‘in’ crowd, it’s a must to cut your hair. After all, while you can always use hair extensions to add length, it’s much harder, and less effective, to make your hair look shorter via other means. Just how can you pull off a bob if you’ve got waist length hair, right? Cutting your locks is definitely the way to go in this case.
5. No reason at all
Who says you need a reason for why you should cut your hair? Life is short, and you only live once. If you really want to cut your hair, then go ahead and don’t let anyone stop you.
Look, hair grows back. It’s not like cutting it off will curse you to a life of misery – unless you’re Rapunzel from Tangled with that horribly crude haircut, that is.
