Normally, I cut my hair when big changes are happening. I did right before I went to college my freshman year. A while later I regretted it because I love my long hair. so I grew it out. Right before I went home for the summer I cut about 5 inches off, and I had just gotten back together with my boyfriend. I think then it was more because the relationship was different than before. A few days later of course I regretted it, I always do. I love my hair long. I don't know why I cut it when I do, cause I always hate it later. Now my hair is back to where it was before summer and I am trying to grow it out longer. Plus my boyfriend loves my hair long! It is just something we both agree on.
