I’ve received comments from people who wish they saw this video before cutting their hair because they actually regret their big chop. I went from mid-back length hair to nearly bald because I was ready for change. This can be a drastic decision for some people and if someone is not truly ready to cut their they may be unhappy if they cut it prematurely. I pondered my big chop for over a year because I know how long it takes to regrow my hair back to my original length (I cut it years ago when I first went natural and it did not grow back overnight 😂 ). Waiting to grow your hair back feels like forever when miss your long hair. The purpose of this video is to prevent people from making a decision they may regret but you are absolutely right. After the big chop your hair will grow back even better with healthy hair habits💗

GIRL! I know right! And honestly maintenance is what you make it. I’m not coloring or cutting once a week ever in this lifetime. I do it myself every 3 weeks and it’s VERY easy to learn. Number 3 or 4 guard and you can’t mess up. Sometimes I’ll cut it on a Number 1 if I just want it super low and wavy. I also feel it’s JUST as versatile just in a different way. I can color to my heart’s content with twa hair. I’ve rocked red, purple, fuchsia, different shades of blonde.

So happy I got the courage to cut my hair. I always felt like I’d never do it because I’d look ugly and my head is too big. My hair seemed like it was stuck at one length for years. These past few months ive been wanting to do it and people kept telling me don’t do it but I finally just did it. I was tired , I’m going through so much in my life right now and after holding on to my damaged hair for so long hoping for it to grow I just cut it! I’m so happy and confident I feel beautiful on the inside . If you really want to do it , just do it.

Honestly I cut my hair simply because of stress in life, my hair was very long and thick and my family would praise me simply because my hair was long healthy ( since my mom and her mom and so forth all they knew were perms, they never considered being natural ) but constantly taking care of my hair was such a huge responsibility i just cut it all off. Not once did i ever regret it even after the process. a huge weight went off my shoulders and i was able to explore new looks. But for first timers who do big chops please don't cute it too low! because if you don't like it you can always resort to braids. if your too young to wear wigs or just not interested in them. (:

This is the exact reason I wanted to cut my hair. It would take forever to detangle and style my hair so I eventually depended upon salons to maintain my hair. I usually got a shampoo, blow out and flat iron because it was easy to maintain for 2 weeks before going back to the stylist. I eventually ended up with heat damage so I just cut it but really I was just tired of the fact that I had to rely on other people to maintain my hair so that it didn’t consume my life. I was so over it. When I finally cut my hair my morning routine became so much easier. I haven’t looked back since🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I know exactly how you feel, you are so right 💯 🎯

I did "the big chop" at age 43 - now I'm almost 59, and it's still delighting me! As you alluded, it does depend on lifestyle and personal preference. It's wise of you to advise others to count the cost to their emotions when making such an extreme hair change. For me, it's the way to go, but we're all different and learning more about ourselves constantly. 😇 #NiceVideo

I’m only 20 and I did the big chop about 4 times since the age 15 and each year it grew back faster and to my original shoulder length! Yes it can be scary and makes you impatient especially if you’re like me and love braids but it’s super worth it, you could also just trim and wear protective styles but that times time for all the damage hair to be gone and I’d rather it be gone all at once so I just chop away. It’s just hair it’ll grow back that’s how I mentally prepare myself and yes my hair is my crown but my crown doesn’t define ME❤️ much love everyone and thanks for this video!

I found it empowering when I stepped outside my comfort zone and did it. It's been a year and six months and I definitely don't regret it. I had hair loss in my crown and did not realize it would not be growing back as fast until it all started growing back and none was in my crown. I freaked out, I started using rogaine foam and I tried to be as patient as possible. And that is when I started rocking head scarves. And learning how to tie them different ways and I have one for every outfit. Now I have five to six inches all over but the crown is still shorter and I'm doing protective hairstyles and it's still a process, it's still rogaine.... it Will b forever now, but I treat it like brushing my teeth, I need toothpaste forever. That part. We are black women. We brave with bounce back. Ladeez, if you are thinning a shave may save the rest. i did not Know how bad my damage was until I shaved it. Facts!

Ultimately, you know your mom best which may help you understand why she doesn’t want you to cut your hair. I’m sure that she is coming from a place of love and looking out for your best interest. In my experience, when we really want some thing we tend to focus on it to the extent that we overestimate the importance of what it is. Although I don’t regret big chopping my hair, sometimes I do miss it long. Once you turn 18 you will have the rest of your life to cut your hair so don’t get discouraged if you can’t cut it now. In the meantime, communicate with your mom respectfully and maybe together you can come up with a solution that’s best for the health of your hair...Perhaps you can start with asking to trim the damaged ends so that you can improve the overall health of your hair. Then experiment with different natural styles with the length you have so you can enjoy switching up your look.

You’re welcome. I never realized how damaging relaxers can be to our hair until I transitioned to my natural hair. There is an extreme difference between my relaxed hair and my natural hair. My natural hair is so much fuller in comparison to how thin my relaxed hair was. Our natural hair is definitely much healthier than relaxed hair.

I just turned 18 and I Finally have the freedom to cut my hair. I’m very excited and happy I feel like I am to depend on my hair. Growing up in this generation you hair,body and clothes define who you are and I don’t want the same for me. I want to be different even if I’m my only support system.

Girl I’m only 17 and I’m natural but my hair is thin and damaged in some places , every time my mom sees my natural hair she trips out and ask if I cut it or it had been cut like it’s her hair and it’s mine ! I’m so fed up with my hair I want to cut it but she won’t support maybe before I’ll get some braids and secretly do it

Already big chop 3rd time now. First time to a twa. second time bald.third time, back to a twa(now). I love it all this time. There are many limitations tho. Stuck to a fro state for one. Waiting 6 months for it to grow out. Some styles unravel really easy. I can only wear twist outs right now. It's all good tho. Easy life, happy me.

We can't expect to look exactly the same when we cut our hair because when we cut our hair it is a completely different look. All that matter's is that you like your hair. Some body will have something to say regardless of what you do. If we concern ourselves w/the opinions of people, we'll never be free. Just being yourself is enough so never stop being you; let the world adjust. 💛💛💛

This is a great video. I've been depressed and obsessed with my overly processed hair for a week, after attempting to do a roller set today I threw the rollers and set my appt for Saturday for my 2nd big chop. My hair is past bra length and it was so healthy until my hair lady bleached it two months in a row earlier this year. I had keratin for 2 years and life was so easy until it no longer wasn't. I'm not good with two textures and my hair doesn't define me! So a new chapter starts soon and I'm already smiling 😃.

❤️❤️ Thank you soooo very much for this information. I’m in that frame of mind where I want to cut/trim my hair. I’ve been naturally for almost 3 years. My hair color is salt and pepper. When it was long, it showed my “Cruella Deville” (the white streak in her hair) from the movie 101 Dalmatians. It’s still there. I just have more gray mixed in. I have a birthday party to go to in December and I just want a new look. Sometimes I feel like I look old with my hair the way it is. I feel like I need a change for now. Thank you again for your encouragement and support to us that is thinking about THE BIG CHOP!!!❤️❤️

I cut my hair short at 25. I continued wearing it short for the better part of ten years. I found a few of ways to style it. I loved my short hair and learned to cut and maintain it myself. I was able to freely experiment with color since damage wasn’t much of an issue because I was cutting my hair so frequently. Being a working mom at the time, short hair really worked for me. Plus, I swam on a regular basis. Short hair really brings out your features and accentuates the length of your neck. It’s something I feel women shouldn’t be afraid of. ❤

Seyikunmi Adedeji I used to feel the same way when I was contemplating big chopping my hair. I had invested so much time in maintaining my hair and I felt like long hair was a part of my identity. However, my long hair in its natural state was extremely time consuming for me to properly manage my hair on my own and I didn’t want to continue straightening my hair as it was I starting to loosen my curl pattern and my hair was looking thinner. I finally got to a point where I just couldn’t spend my time maintaining my hair or stressing over another visit to the salon. When I big chopped I was at peace. I knew that I was not giving up on my hair but instead I had chose to just go with the flow of my life. I can always wear a wig if I miss my wearing my hair Long and I could stop cutting it so it can grow back at any time. For now my short, natural hair just works best for me and my lifestyle. I say all of that to say, you are not alone and I hope you do what gives you peace.❤️

Juice box Lmao at “imma go to the salon and get it done so I don’t feel like it’s my fault.“ 😂 You can do a tapered style with your hair longer in the front and shorter in the back to complement your curl pattern or start with a medium chop until you feel comfortable with the big chop... I usually find a picture of a style I like that I believe will work with my curl pattern... Then the trial and error begins until I find what works for me. LOL Btw, I’m proud of you for even considering such a bold move in the 6th grade. I wish I was as brave as you in the 6th grade. I was clowned everyday from grades 6-10. It wasn’t until I stopped caring about the opinions of others and started doing me that I started to shine; my only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner. People will always have an opinion so now is the best time to get in the habit of not caring. Whatever you decide, all that matters is that you are confident in your decision. Confidence looks beautiful on everybody!!!

Everyone’s hair grows at a different pace and sometimes we don’t notice our progress due to the shrinkage of our natural coils. Plus we see ourselves every day so it can be difficult to see change. The only time I ever noticed new growth was when I trimmed my hair but then it would eventually grow back to the same length and seemed to remain the same length. As long as you are maintaining your length and not losing your hair it sound like your hair is fine.🤍

I had to fake it till I make it with the heat damage and just did my trims occasionally when it was out of a protective style and when it was time for braids or sew in I trim. The hair will always grow back especially when the hair has some good moisture. Growth starts from the roots and will eventually stretch itself out. Once you trim you'll be able to see the progress.

A couple months back I had to cut off a significant amount of my hair BC it got severely matted after a depressive episode. Hair that could reach down my back was now to my ears. Adjusting to that is hard and it still is! I still miss my long hair. And now, I feel like the growth isn’t happening. My mom thinks my hair is falling out from the roots and my hair has been bleached many times and I just don’t want it to be damaged anymore (even though I love coloring my hair) because I think that’s the main reason it’s falling out. I love feeling feminine and pretty and girly and I worry that shaving my head will take that away from me. Even with my haircut I feel like I look boyish and it would be even worse if I shaved it. I wanted to get braids but I don’t think braids can save this mess. I think I very well may go through with it, even if it’s a little traumatic at first. I have a couple of wigs and hats I can cover it with haha

You can still be feminine, pretty and girly with short hair because you're still a girl - you just have shorter hair now. Of course if you miss your hair long, wigs and braids do help as you grow your hair back. I hope by now you have adjusted to your short. You'll always be you regardless of the length of your hair so go confidently in the world and enjoy your journey.

my mom stopped doing my hair in 4th grade so I was ultimately left to do it myself, I had to learn to braid but it became a tedious task to do every morning along with getting dressed and other things. I started asking to straighten my hair and my mom took me to a salon, my hair sometimes got messed up if my bonnet fell off while I was sleeping so I ended up straight ironing my hair every morning. I've cut my hair multiple times because I never really cared how my hair looked. My hair is now damaged from the straightening and i'm SUPER excited to cut it again this summer. I feel like people are scared to cut their hair because short may not be deemed "pretty" but I think its absolutely beautiful and once you cut it, you'll realize that you feel better with healthy hair.

Great, great video and the honesty is real. I big chop my hair two times in my life because I needed a change. This time I wanted to go natural. I’m in the fall season of my life (67) and I was tired of using flat irons or curling irons. During the pandemic I cut 1-2 inches and finally when the salon opened ...she did the big chop. I suggest you gradually cut your hair to see how you feel about it being short. My hair was shoulder length and when I was younger it was down my back. First decide on the reason and then the method and how to maintain it or if you are going to let it grow. My hair has grown a lot in 3 months and I plan on letting it grow a little longer. Curleys and natural beauties it’s hard to embrace your hair and not be controlled by what Society says is an acceptable look for us. There are some many products (black owned) to choose a style/look that best represents you. I wish they were available when I was younger. Enjoy your crown 👑 🙏🏾🙅🏾

It was sexy, oh yes but gotta go to barber to get the fly shape up, keep eyes done and seems like I was getting more touch ups. Hair was growing like crazy. I luv short sexy cuts, they accent your face but it does take quite a bit of maintenance. I envy those sisters who can keep it together.

Lori Love I don’t think I look so good but the health of my hair what matters lol I just can’t get my curls right and I’m thinking about going shorter cause I basically have a pixie cut and I’m thinking about cutting the rest off

Bambi Gold Is there a stylist you trust that can help tweak the style or the cut before you cut the rest off? And you’re right, healthy hair is definitely most important. I’ve had a few bad cuts & colors that caused me to cut it all off for a fresh start. Best part part is your hair will continue grow back! You WILL find what works for you 🤗

I'm dying to cut my hair because I'm so over the maintenance but I have a chunky face and dont know what shape to get

Perhaps you can start with some pictures of other ladies with a similar face shape as yours who have the hairstyle you want. Get some inspo from IG & pinterest. If you can't find anything, be the 1st to do what hasn't been done and you'll find people look at you for inspo! I'm sure a short cut would look beautiful on you :-)

it's me corrine Google Jill Scott’s big chop. She is still gorgeous!!!! Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. If you can’t find any pictures of other women, perhaps you should be the 1st!!! We can be our own worst critic but I’m sure you’ll be fine. Maybe you can try a short wig to see if you’ll like how short hair looks on you before you actually cut your hair. 🤗
