how karen got her groove back

Posted on Tuesday, January 27th, 2009 at 8:10 am

After hearing my ex rave about how much he liked short hair on girls, I charged into the mall and chopped 10 inches of my hair that same day.  Pathetic I know, so eager to please a man.  A FATAL mistake any woman can make. 

Me and short hair don’t mix well together.  I hate it.  It’s just not me.  Along with the strands, my confidence flew out the window.  Yes my hair is growing back as fast as grass on a Chia but I can’t wait another half a year to have my original length back.

So I decided to cheat a little. 

Cost me a hundred dollars, but after months of putting it off, I’ve finally got myself clip-on hair extensions.  

Suddenly I find myself welcoming back my three friends; swagger, twinkle and spunk. 

I’m sick of being called “little girl”. 

Much to my horror though, I almost got picked up by a younger guy in the mall a couple of days ago.  I felt I was back in highschool, the frivolity of it all.  It was horrible. 

I’m 26.  I’m not cute.

    the Posh hair has grown and it’s at an awkward length wherein I’m pushed to decide whether to chop it off again or keep it growing. And I’ve missed my old look so much! :-D

    personally i think not anyone can carry short hair. especially those pixie cuts. and to me whenever i cut my hair short i always feel more, i dunno, more powerful sort of. more rawr into me. hahaha.

    maybe you should give it a try first. for a month or so. then extensions when it’s in that awkward length already. ^_~

    Hi Annabs!
    I can’t do pixie cuts.. too daring >.< People like the short hair on me, but I guess my usual long hair is my rawr. Heheh. Now I get flyaways cuz it’s getting longer, right at my batok -__-

    When I had quarrels with BFs before, I would also go to the salon/parlor and have my hair cut, my nails trimmed, etc. =) It was a useless exercise, you think, but it helped me cope with the stress at that time. So, for me it was all worth it. =)

    Hi Meikah!
    Hmm a fellow kikay. Lol. Good idea to pamper yourself during hell days! Shopping is my anti-depressant. It leaves scars on the bank account -_-
