Personally I think you're rocking that short cut! It's all in attitude. I used to cut my hair short (think rhianna pixie) when I was relaxed and what I loved about it most was the fact that everyone could see my face I had nothing to hide behind anymore. Yes, at first you DO feel naked but it forces you to be comfortable with you, if you get what I'm saying. Dress it up with earrings, make up, and keep it very near in this stage. It will pass sooner than you realize. Some people wind up cutting a lot of their natural hair because they miss the simplicity of of the twa so enjoy love!

I concur! And the lashes look really cute with the short fade... My big chop was much scarier! Lol you look like a doll.

+1 I had similar feelings when I shaved my head. I realized I had to own it because now I was giving the world "face". Lol That was the first thing they saw now and I felt so naked. Even now people continuously compliment my cheekbones and bone structure. Asian women always stop me. I'm still not used to so much attention on my face because I've "hid" behind my hair for so many years. A brush cut definitely pushes you out there so to speak.

To the OP, I think you look pretty with the short hair. Rock it!

Mine is super short & I shingle it with fingers. I wash it, put in a leave in, cocoshea spray & a LITTLE defining custard & my hair coils up very nicely. Last night, I chopped off what had grown in the past month because it was scab hair & ugly. It looks really good with a new cut.

Nope no transition. I just went to the salon and decided on a whim that I wanted to cut it all off!
