Bye Long Hair 2

Elly Mar
Today, I decided to cut my hair before graduation instead of waiting for the wedding. I was just tired of the constant maintenance—my hair was always sticky, tangled, and just too much to deal with. Now that I’ve gone short, I know some people will see it as a fresh new look.
But honestly, after the cut, I didn’t feel a huge difference emotionally. I’m just kind of amazed at how much hair can really change how we look.
So yeah, another milestone for my hair journey—not the longest it’s ever been, but definitely the most effort I’ve put in. And let me just say, major respect to all the girls out there rocking long hair. It’s not easy, and I admire the care you put into it.
Goodbye for now, long hair! Maybe we’ll meet again someday.
Here’s my little video tribute for you 💇‍♀️✨
