I’ve been sporting a pixie cut for a little over 3 years now. If you asked me whether I preferred long or short hair, I’d say short hair all the way. There are a lot of reasons why, and although some people are apprehensive of chopping their hair, there are a lot of perks to sporting a short do:

1. Low Maintenance3142475758_1_8_DWjLg9F8

For once, you don’t have to worry about how your hair is going to look or how you’re going to style it, because you’ll be wearing the same hair cut for quite some time till your hair gets longer.

Let’s face it, not a lot of women have the guts to cut their hair short. And if you’re living in an Arab country, society will constantly be pressuring you to wear it long. If you do end up cutting your hair, you’ll be one of the brave few who did so.

3. Symbol of Rebelliontumblr_mlz9sk9Qsz1s1o141o1_500

Short hair isn’t just a means of convenience. It’s a sign of rebellion against an established order that’s told you that you’ve had to have your hair long.

4. Savings on Shampoo and Conditioner200_s

That’s just a given. The less hair you have, the less shampoo you’ll use and the more money you’ll save! Yay!

5. You’re Not as Sweaty as Everyone Elsetumblr_n1zesecklQ1rjrf3qo6_250

While everyone is heating up because of their hair and have to tie it up to bear the summer heat, you’re naturally a few degrees cooler than most just because your hair isn’t heating you up or sticking to you.

6. It Works Both Ways!tumblr_inline_mhpyjjhUOr1qz4rgp

It can be formal or sporty and informal. It’s perfect for any occasion, and doesn’t restrict you in any way.

7. Fewer Tangles 45c2e8890439f562863aa2b6b89b15e1-146328022

Finally, you don’t have to worry about split ends and breakage! You can say bye bye to your hair woes, because short hair is your savior!

Well, if that’s not reason enough for you to chop your locks, I don’t know what is!
