I chopped my hair off!

I also got the vibe of "sultry"! :icon_redf:icon_redf:icon_redf

You know you can put a picture of yourself on your profile, and control who sees it (just members, just friends, no one, etc.)

 

Just a small purple star. Nothing earth shattering. Just something to mark my journey to myself. I may get a pink/blue/purple star but right now I'm thinking just purple because "total mixture" is how I feel!

 

Love it!!

 

As soon as I have the freedom, I'm gonna go and get all my hair cut off. Although I don't mind it being so long now that I've reinforced the fact that my hair does not define me with myself XD I think I'm gonna get in in like a mid-length pixie cut when I can though. I saw a person in Keydells (a Christmas shop in the UK) today who had really short hair and they were really pretty... they were female but I don't know about their gender so I'm going neutral. But I was jealous of their hair... they had hella fine hair.

You all look fabulous, btw. *skips out of thread*

 

Love the hair (and you look nice too ), btw I was just photoshoping my hair into different shades of crazy colours, to see which one should I go with But I don't know...Me and decisions...so many options...About haircut, I've already got a more or less short hair, though I'm a bit annoyed with it, because the girl who cut it told me that when it will grow it will look choppy (which I was looking forward too), but instead it's rearranging itself into this good-girl shape lately. And it's neither straight neither choppy neither curly...well it's like me now I guess Difficult to find a label for.

 

Hey right on baristajedi. I went short too....about 34 years ago. But hey, I still love it! Much easier to manage. Personally I think it is very attractive when women have short hair.

 

Barista Jedi yay a ! ✨

Hair is a big spiritual / emotional holder
I know someone who does spiritual haircuts ...
I've also found it a big emotional release too
When i look back all my shorter cuts have been after coming out of relationship -
This time however it is that and more

That should read Ariel hoop class

 

Funny, me too! And every hairdresser I've ever been to says that this is a very common occurrence. For me short hair means independence I think.

I do wonder about most men and their feelings about our hair. I've met more than one woman who said "My husband won't let me cut it off." Heck, I've said that too.

I think I have to stop there, because this is going to devolve into a tirade on patriarchy and this is NOT the place for that!

 

Good for you! It looks cute. It's fun to switch things up isn't it? I'm looking to update my style but I'm not sure how to do it. I won't cut my hair, so I'll have to figure something else out.

I don't like rainbows either! It used to bother me that that was our symbol. I have mixed feelings about plaid, trying to figure out if I can fit that into my wardrobe...not sure yet. Ever since I heard that plaid is a lesbian thing I've been noticing women in plaid and I immediately think they're gay. They can't all be though...

 

Hell, yes, they are! Or lumberjacks. One or t'other.

 

Seriously lol you guys have me actively looking for flannel shirts when I opshop now

 

Hmm...there must be more lumberjacks in my community than I realized...interesting.

I've thought about wearing more jewelry, maybe getting some new rings. Hey, does anyone know if a thumb ring has any significance in the LGBT community? I know someone who sometimes wears one...just curious...

 

i think I might be an outlier here but I don't feel any particular desire to give visual expression to my gayness. I can feel it inside me and that's enough for me. Now maybe when I enter the mating world I'll feel different but I expect my actions to speak for me. Now, this isn't saying I'm trying not to look gay. I suspect it might be a toss-up as to whether I do or don't. Clothes/decoration have never been a means to an end for me and I can't see them becoming now.

I would like to cut my hair but that's only because I'm tired of it. I'm not interested in a tattoo so that's out. The only accessories I wear are two heavy silver rings and a watch. If they look "gay", I don't know but they certainly aren't "girly". I have experimented wearing a thumb ring but so far it doesn't feel natural, like it wouldn't on my index finger either because I'm not used to it.

I guess what I'm saying is, what's inside me says I'm gay and anything you see on the outside is just whatever "style" I've developed over the years. It's just that these days I'm more interested in making myself look a bit more sharp-ish.
