I WHIP MY HIJAB BACK AND FORTH.

Alright. Let me lay it down for ya. You know you trust your friends...
...
...
...when you let them CUT. YOUR. HAIR.
True story, bro.

Me BEFORE my hair cut:

Me AFTER my haircut:

Har-dee-har! Yeah, blogosphere, I do indeed get quite a bit of a thrill messing with you. 
Did I say quite a bit? I meant, a gargantuan amount of a thrill!


But, no need to render little gasps of horror and clutch your chest in a dramatic fashion akin to mother-in-laws on South Asian dramas...because there are actually many, many great things about having short hair.
In SHORT, there are a myriad of pros with having SHORT hair:
  • no lumpy, protruding bump under my hijab!
  • no more tangles!
  • hair washing time = 2 min! Lovely and SHORT compared to the hair washing time of 10-20 min with longer hair!
  • no more towel-hair-drying! The air is enough!
  • happiness!
  • success!
  • a better life!
Errrrrr. Horrible sale pitches aside, there is another matter to tackle: one thing has not changed and that is the fact that I will most likely never whip my hair back and forth. However, there is no reason as to why I shouldn't WHIP MY HIJAB BACK AND FORTH!

Anyhoo, you asked me what I am studying at Uni. I'm majoring in Communication Studies minoring in Political Studies and Marketing.

Very different, indeed =) hehehe
I remember how easy it is to take care of and style short hair, but right now I'm addicted to my long-wild-hard-to-get-it-the-way-I-like-it hair. I know, crazy, huh? =)
Have a lovely Saturday!

Your new haircut really makes your face stand out :D
Uh, I wanted to cut my hair short so many times exactly because of these things you mentioned. But I would look awful with short hair and anyway I like long hair too much to do it.
I love the title of this post and basically all of your titles are great :D

I once cut my hair in that victoria beckham-style bob but didn't like that I couldn't tie it up under the hijab!
