had to cut 13.5 inches of my hair off tonight

i’ve been struggling so much with basic care, showers, etc that my hair has become a matted mess. i’ve been trying to get through a few giant mats for 3 weeks now, and just gave up.

i started growing my hair out after an undercut in 2021. 5 years of growth gone. it’s way shorter than i’d like even for a short hair cut.

i know it will make things easier, but im still sad.
