This is a light-hearted list of compliments to NOT say to a woman who's just cut her hair. It's sort of a spin off somthing else I saw once. It inspired me! So I came up with ten of my own.
10. "You look so different!"
Um, holdup. Different = good. Very good.
9. "You look so much older!"
Newsflash! Not every teenage girl wants to look older! ;)
8. "But...I thought your face shape was round..."
Thanks, but #shorthairdontcare.
7. "What?!?!?!"
No. Just no.
6. "OMG WHY?!?"
Because I wanted to. Is there a new hair law? Because if there is, about half of the women in this country are now felons.
5. "I dare you to grow it out." / "Are you going to grow it out now?" / "Oh great, now you/we have to grow it out!"
I JUST got my new 'do! I want to enjoy my new looks for awhile before worrying about what to do next.
4. "What are you going to do with it for special occasions?"
Um, I dunno. Find some cute bobby pins? (check out Lilla Rose for some ADORABLE and BEAUTIFUL hair accessories, including headbands, bobbies, flexis, and more!). [Sorry for that shameless publicity for my friend's business... carry on!]
3. "I don't know how you can stand having it in your face that way."
Not much I can do about it now, JimBob, huh?!
2, "Will your boyfriend/best friend like it?"
I don't care. And no girl under seventeen should be dating/courting anyhow.
1. "Your grandma's gonna hate those sidebangs."
Well, my grandmother's hatred of thus shortened hair will CERTAINLY make it grow back faster, won't it!
There you have it. Now you know how to NOT compliment me. :) Instead try things like, "I love it!" "You're beautiful!" or anything you would say to any other woman with long hair. EXCEPT "I love your long hair!" ;)
Signed,
Grace
PS Sorry I sounded defensive. It's all in good fun...sort of... ;)
