So I broke up with my boyfriend in June / July and had to move out (his house). I temporarily moved in with a male colleague and friend (who's girlfriend moved out on him around the same time!) until my new apartment became available in September.
Now, as this person I moved in with was a coworker (not to mention the fact that we hang out all the time) I was reluctant to do the whole rollerset, going under my bonnet dryer due to...embarassment! So, I blowdried twice a week and flatironed instead of wrapping at night...SO STUPID!
Now, I'm in my apartment, happy as all heck, EXCEPT that my hair is breaking...ARRRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!! I'm rollersetting 2x a week and wrapping and MTGing my little heart out (despite the stink). (PS I CANNOT airdry w/out rollersetting. Breakage city!)
Anyway, I'm wondering if I should just cut it! My hair hair is one length at my front & sides and another in the back. I'm shedding like CRAZY (probably a combo of stress- back in school & full time job-, a relaxer and change of season). The worst part is that I'm finding all those little pieces of hair all on my shirt/desk/jacket.
The longest length is about 4" from brastrap, but it's in a deep V shape, with the sides and front being just brushing my shoulders. I can blend it in by tucking the sides & front behind my ears, but I'm debating cutting it to a blunt cut, so that it's all the same length.
I've done this before, and it just kept growing in that freakin' V shape. I don't know if it's that the front & sides just plain grow slower, or if it's that that it is brushing my shoulders and the friction is causing it to break....
I'm confused. I've decided if I choose to cut it will be 1) at a really good salon (with hair dry) and 2) a good deep cut 2' or more ...
What do you guys think? BC..not to go natural but to cut off damage...or WHAT?
My hair is a 3b/4a.
Thanks!
