I went from this in a week

#storytime #lemon8contest #got my hair cut off #the haircut ruins it #badhaircutstories #haircutfail #lemon8 #lemon8challenge

Why I decided to cut my hair off…

I originally wanted my shoulder length but the person who cut my hair did my hair chin length. They kept yelling at me to stop moving when I wasn’t and kept yanking my head. I’m the next couple of days after the unfortunate hair cut I went to cosmetology barber area at my college and got my hair cut for just a dollar! A dollar! Which they did a great job and I was really happy with how my hair turned out!
