I didn’t like the short haircut I gave myself a few months ago when I first did it, weirdly enough it gave me dysphoria. I felt like it emphasized my femininity somehow. But now that it’s been a while, I’m actually quite enjoying how it’s growing out. It’s getting to that weird length where parts of it will randomly stick up and it looks different every day. And it feels more masc than it did when it was shorter, for some reason. It’s enjoyable looking in the mirror and seeing hair that belongs to me rather than a stranger.
After like a year of trying and cutting it off over and over, I finally got my hair out of The Weird Zone and transitioned into a "long" hair style
Getting nervous because I've been cutting my own hair for years because I don't trust hair dressers. Not sure I'll be able to handle cutting my own hair while it's long
I don't know if I can give great haircut advice (when I had long hair I always tried very hard not to think about it because dysphoria) but I've cut my own hair a few times and I've found cutting long hair easier than short, just because it's easier to reach and also to section off into layers. But also I personally never cared too much about ensuring my haircuts were super even so maybe that's a part of it.
