Did you cut your hair?

Question

I'm a FTM and throughout my whole pregnancy I told my husband "don't let me cut my hair when I'm a mom". I've always joked how as soon as you become a mom you cut your hair. Well I get it now. I love my long hair but now I'm loosing it and the baby is pulling it and I always have it up so it just gives me headaches and now I want to chop it! I know it'll grow back but I'm in such a pickle! Let me see them mom hairdos! 💇‍♀️

Answer

I cut my hair to my shoulders a week before my due date, I was losing my hair and it was becoming a hassle to deal with but it grew back pretty quickly

Answer

I had mine chopped with my first because she kept pulling it... Unless you are going to shave your head they will still pull it! It doesn't matter how long it it! 😂 So I'm not cutting it this time... My 6month old is a hair puller but she would do it even if it was shorter 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I am not going to, I absolutely love my long hair! Why am I not allowed to do whatever I want, even if I had a kid? Lol 😂 I always have my hair down during the day/work/going out, but I like ponys, buns, or hair clips as a quick easy way to put it up if wanted. I don't think it's any 'easier' to style short than long, personally.

Answer

I chopped mine when my son was about 1.5yo-- but that's something I've been doing for a good 10 years, grow it for a few years then chop, repeat over & over. I wanted it long when baby was little so I could just throw it into a mom bun & it'd be out of the way, but it was nice to cut it off later especially because I was losing lots of hair pp & things were getting raggedy. Definitely did not regret it.

Answer

I cut it when I was 15 weeks then grew it out for about a year. Cut it one more time to a bob and grew it out again. LO is about to be 2 and my hair is to my lower back. I’m finally having the time to do things with it again. I’m so glad it was short while he was younger. Much less maintenance!

Answer

I plan to in two weeks before my baby shower. Lol. I just want it to be as easy as possible to dealing with.

Answer

I didn’t get a “mom cut” but I did cut it a good bit shorter than I usually do

Answer

I cut 11 inches off when I was pregnant with my first. I LOVED it, but because I have natural curl - I was forced to style it or I looked like a fool. 
So if/when you make the cut, take into consideration how it looks natural & if it can fit into a pony on days you want/forced to skip a shower.

Answer

I haven’t cut my hair yet and my baby is 16 months. I just keep it in a bun or ponytail for the most part. I do want to cut it but not short. I don’t look good with short hair, never gonna do it lol

Answer

I haven't cut it yet but I want to! Same reasoning. The little guy keeps pulling at it and it gives me headaches when I have it up
