YES!
Oh that is SO the reason why i cut my hair for the first time. My hair was clear to my waist and i came to my roomate one night about midnight with a pair of scisors. She cut off 16 inches that night. Went around the dorm showing off the change.
It was declaring independence from a man. I also was declaring my independence from my family. Just a healthy thing to do.
Second time i cut my hair short was just because it got in the way running a spotlight one night at work. I had an hour for dinner and during that time I went to a salon and had them cut it all off. All sorts of attention for that one. It helped that they styled it excellently.
So yes, independence. That's what short hair is all about. I was a new person when i cut my hair. Free from the strife and confusion of the days before.
