| "Important Haircut" alexsguide.net |
This past weekend, I got my hair cut. Now this was no little hair cut. In the longest places, I lost nearly 10 inches of hair! I walked in to Becky, my hairdresser for nearly 16 years, knowing that I wanted it cut pretty short.
This is the shortest I have ever gone, and it was a bit of a shock at first. When I went to wash it, I was amazed at how little was left in the back, and when I went to work out, I didn't really know what to do with it; it is far too short for a ponytail.
Although I do like the short cut and style, I was a little anxious what other people would think of it. I got a lot of compliments on Monday at school; most of them seemed sincere. After Mrs. McCall and Mrs. Enders called it "sassy," I was feeling a lot better about the big change. This is an example of a concept called "looking-glass self." The idea is that as others share how they see you, you begin to see yourself that way too. This also relates to self-concept and perception.
