Buzzcut: 1 year of regrowth (and first haircut!) *WITH PICTURES*

[@MHLnL]

"i am not my hair i am not this skin i am the soul that lives within." ~india arie Beautiful quote at the end of your video, Rebecca. Thanks for taking us on your hair journey this past year. My favorite hair phase of yours was week 12. You seemed, at least to me, to really embody your personality best in that phase (at least on video:) Cheers to another year of growth in all ways!

[@anotheramy71]

Honestly, you've looked so radiant at every stage that it's hard to say that any one part was the best or worst. Thanks for being so open about your process and reminding us all that hair is... just hair!

[@RebeccaSisson]

Oh wow what a beautiful compliment! Thank you so much 🤗

[@LuuGolinski]

So true! Via your pictures you klind of illustrated the quote!

[@TheLifeTidy]

I think you have looked beautiful and elegant every step of the way! I love my shaved head, I redo it every five or six weeks and have for a couple years now! I feel like my hair being less of an issue has helped me to bring out more of my inner me, finally, at 56! I think I would go crazy trying to grow it out, so I admire you for that!

[@catfish9539]

Give yourself credit will you, you absolutely rocked short hair. I like it from 10 ish weeks on.

[@RebeccaSisson]

That you!! ❤️🤗

[@amandaruthbarnes1181]

I grew my hair out after losing it from chemotherapy and I leaned into the pixie. I just kept cutting the back short while the front grew out and it was actually kinda fun to play with all the funky pixie styles. I would highly recommend that route to anyone growing out a shaved head!

[@k.285]

Your natural color is so beautiful! Reminds me of the “safe and sound” video from taylor swift, where her hair matches the fallen leaves.

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thank you ❤️

[@TheHellmis]

I loved the shaved haircut so much more ... it was much fresher, more stylish and not boring at all...it suited you so much 😍👍...the haircut is nice too, but you have to style it ...with your little bun, for me it looks a little bit neglected, but tastes are different and that is good....love your videos and your way to live sustainable the best you can. Stay safe 🍀🙋🏻‍♀️

[@jesstory2537]

I’m 6 months into a grown out shaved head! I’m a hairstylist, so I can’t help but cut it as it’s growing. I’m working towards a pixie shag now :) loving watching your grow out journey!

[@labi5381]

I liked the before, I like the after...you look just beautiful. I think it’s your eyes and your mimik and smile, and your woice that makes your beauty ( for me at least). I think you are the kindest person.

[@RebeccaSisson]

Wow, thank you so much! Such a lovely compliment!

[@cherishmiller1]

That is the same thing I feel every day since I shaved my waist length Dreadlocks off on Mother’s Day this past year. I just wanna cry every time I think about it every time I see someone with Dreadlocks or even a picture of someone with Dreadlocks even right now watching these videos of your old pictures I am so so so sad.

[@SuperClare]

You looked so beautiful with your hair shaved and even better with a pixie! Both styles suited your face and it appeared effortless yet super stylish!! I’ll probably shave mine soon...

[@sneakerlove5313]

I think short hair suits you because of your hair density and texture. You look great!

[@_Anna_Nass_]

I love that you’re showing what slow growing hair looks like after a year. I’m a slow grower too. All the collagen in the world can’t help me.

[@blueberrypieology3088]

Great new haircut! I loved all your ultra short and short hair lengths. But the most important is that you feel you when you see yourself. And not how someone else thinks how you should look. I remember that with the lengthening of your hair, also your sense of belonging in your own body seemed to return or grow stronger. I’m very happy for you for this new milestone.

[@jlbarts]

Wow a year ! Where’s that time gone 💖🙏🏻💖

[@RebeccaSisson]

right?

[@jlbarts]

@@RebeccaSisson enjoy every second . You and your hair are beautiful

[@mybubbles5552]

I’m at month 7 of my grow out and it is an absolutely ugly and horrible stage. I don’t think I will shave my head purposely again. I liked the buzz cut and some of the pixie stages but that is it. It was a good learning experience I guess but I could have gone without it and I do regret it. I can’t wait until my hair looks more like yours!

[@rosemarywilliams9969]

😂I do the same thing to my hair because it grows the same way. But I think you look amazing no matter what hair style you have, you pull it off so well🤗

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thank you 🤗

[@karma_giirl]

I shaved my hair almost 2 months ago and I can't wait for my hair to grow back!! You are so beautiful, no matter short or long hair! Thank you for this helpful vidéo ! 😘😘🇨🇵

[@jennifersoto-rinehart8754]

My hair is cut literally how your hair is grown out. My hairdresser said it’s a wolf cut. I can’t believe it’s been a year since you shaved your head! Also I love your videos but I always have to put my volume way up. Idk maybe it’s just me?

[@RebeccaSisson]

Some people say they have that problem, and some say it’s too loud?! I just ordered (another!) new mic 🤞

[@tasha8567]

Honestly you look great with any hairstyle you had, but I really liked week 50, you look like a Greek goddess with that style!

[@mollymccann5043]

Week 50 with that cute side braid and tiny pony was my favorite, but this bob looks fantastic!

[@isabelsenas3711]

I honestly like all the styles of hair during this year. They are are different, but you look natural and pretty in all of them. I also love your natural blonde hair, find it gorgeus!

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thank you so much! 💕✨

[@embraceintentions]

I can’t believe that it’s been 1 year already! Your natural hair colour is lovely and the bob really suits you!

[@jenniferstinson3297]

Good Job! You did it! You made it a whole year! I really like quite a few of those styles! A few years ago I got brave and bleached and cut my hair. It was short but not shaved. Everyone hated it. haha! But like you said about shaving your head-it was an experience I wanted to try. I am not my hair. ;)

[@emma1381]

This has been a helpful and realistic take on the grow-out process - thank you! I am 2 months in (not my first buzzcut, nor my first grow out attempt) and I am hoping to go the full distance this time. Usually I can't bear it and cut it all off again within 6 months. I struggle so much during the grow out! It doesn't help that my hair is salt and pepper so always looks better with a sharp cut when it's shorter than shoulder length. Currently researching all manner of scarves and hairbands.

[@9melissal]

The haircut looks great! You look so gorgeous in the picture with the long hair. I definitely think you should aim for that after you grow out the bob.

[@laurenknudsen9307]

Love the final product! Thanks for taking us on your journey!!

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thanks for following along ❤️🤗

[@dianneporter3350]

Your finished style in the hairdressers looked beautiful!!!

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thank you!!

[@cstar6682]

I loved the faux hawk. I also like the picture you inserted of you with long hair.

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thank you! I loved that long hair too. It was annoying to take care of but so fun!

[@Sophie-kn3gh]

I LOVE my hibar. So far I I have tried the moisturize and the maintain ones. I definitely like the moisturize one better. I like the smell a lot better and seems a little more gentle.

[@jemma50]

I like it when you braid the front...better than the Pebbles ponytail. ;) It looks pretty good at all stages. ♥ I would not colour it again. Your hair colour is lovely, with so many natural streaks. It's healthier to leave it natural anyway. I'm enjoying your journey. :) ♥

[@RebeccaSisson]

Thank you! I like the braid too, I’m just too lazy to do it some days 😂

[@jemma50]

@@RebeccaSisson I hear ya! ;)

[@suzstancova4220]

I liked your short hair better then longer hair after haircut; It looked more interesting and cool short. Very nice video, thank you!

[@emilyevans6989]

CONGRATULATIONS! My 1 year is July 21. I made the same promise to myself to not cut for one year. I had an uber short pixie. YOUR HAIR LOOKS GREAT! (It looked great at every stage, though, it just wasn’t what you wanted. I get that.)

[@kakaakemi678]

Week 26, 40, 42 was funny but definitely I love your dreadlocks! I want to do it on my hair but never had the courage.

I stopped shaving the sides of my hair in October and the process of growing out only those parts while the rest is long is like a torture. I can't wear a ponytail anymore because it looks sooo weird 😢

She did a great job. It looks great

[@mooretessie]

I recommend buzzing if you’ve been wanting to. It’s the best 😂

[@carolined2453]

Your head shave video was the first video of yours I watched, I cannot believe that was a year ago and how inspirational I have found you since. Personally I think you’re hair looked best between shaving and week 17, the shaved and pixie styles suit you so well, they looked fresh and young, saying that you are a very beautiful woman and any hair style will look good and you should have what makes you most comfortable. Thank you for your vlogs.

Cute haircut. Much better. Cuter without the pull back with a band.

[@lisarhoades965]

Great haircut! A "bob" is so versatile, you will have fun as it grows out. Since your hair texture does not lend itself to natural locking, do you think you will want to dreadlock again with all that silky new growth? I have thick, wavy Brazilian hair and locked in my college days, however, it did end up damaged and although I would love to do it again, I am apprehensive. :-)

[@tosiaka]

two things: 1. grow them- you can always make them shorter :) 2. you can massage castor oil once a week to your scalp, leave it for about an hour (towel or headwrap on) - it may help you to grow stronger hair a bit faster :) well, it worked for me ;)

[@RebeccaSisson]

Great tip, thank you! ❤️

[@tanjasmits8654]

Wow amazing when you look at all these pictures. I like your hair around week 17-22 and then at 47. But who am I to tell you.. if you don't like it short, then you shouldn't have it short ! 5 years ago I went from somewhat darker then yours to ginger. Mayor surprise of course for my family and friends and now it's more brown. So just do what you like best! Whishing you all the best from Belgium. Warm regards x

[@RebeccaSisson]

Such a good reminder! I love getting feedback from all of you but you’re right...ultimately it’s my hair!

[@mondfalkin3781]

rice water, google it how to make it yourself- makes hair grow faster and stronger 😊 Maybe you like to make an experiment video about it? Quote: Using rice water on the hair dates back to the Heian period in Japan: Court ladies had floor-length-hair called suberakashi. Each of these women is said to have combed their hair each day using rinse water made from the washing of rice, known as Yu‐Su‐Ru, which may have contributed to their stunning lengths.

Excited to continue this journey with you 😊🙏🏽💙💫🦋✨

I'm currently growing out my buzz cut, can I ask why you didn't cut it before 12 months? I've seen other women cut it every 10 weeks while growing it out. Just curious 😀

It’s been a few months since I shaved since September. But my hair is not grown like yours. So I realized it is supposed to grow faster. If it makes you feel better my hair grows slower than yours. Thanks for this video :)

We all go at our own pace I suppose! Good luck with your grow out process 💕

[@lillysummer3546]

@@RebeccaSisson wow I didn’t think one of my favorite KZbinrs would read my comment and seeing your reply made me so happy! Thank you it means a lot! I studied Ayurveda. I think it has to do with our digestive “fire” according to Indian ways. If the digestive fire is “different” less or more then our food is not digested as in people like you and I aren’t getting the nutrients from the food that we are eating. I am not hundred percent sure how to make sure the nutrients are absorbed but certain changes do help the fire. Like : Eating on exact timing. Eating before sunset like the Jains do. Not drinking water half an hour after meal. Not eating cold things like icecream or not drinking cold water Not mixing cooked meals with raw Digestive system doesn’t digest well if they are eaten together. Maybe raw goes first. I avoid shampoo and clean it with natural soap nuts or besan. Castor oil These are few things I know and learned from the Himalayan masters I hope it helps.

[@vasel5193]

If I was so beautifull with the short hair. Dag 1 I would cut my long hair of today! The fact that you look so good with the short hair should be your "trademark"/brand. I have no idea of how old/young you are....but speeking as a 54 year old (with very long hair) you will look younger for longer with healthy short hair... Iwould have to color my hair to have that short...witch I don't want...but your heir looks perfekt for the short version. I actually thing that you look more "hygienic" (Clean) and glowing with the short hair.

[@barbarasilva6318]

I wonder how your hair feels compared to before? Stronger? Healthier? Any difference? I think bob length is great on you short or longer, but really long hair....i don't know 🤔

I like the buz cut on you but long hair definitely is more you!

[@simplyme-88]

From week 10 to 20 and something. You have a perfect shape of head so short hair suits you very well. It gives you a particular young and original look as you are so pretty. Now it’s more ordinary and classic. Short hair brings you what dreadlock did : turning back on you. Let me put this is French : depuis la dixième semaine jusqu’à celles où la nuque commence à être trop longue. Ta forme de tête est parfaite pour porter des cheveux très court, ce qui est loin d’être le cas de tout le monde. Ça te donne un air jeune, original, particulier. La coupe actuelle est très bien mais comme tu es belle alors tout te va, court-long etc. Cette coupe est juste plus classique, plus sage, plus « rangée ». Ta coupe très courte est comme tes dreadlocks : on se retourne sur toi quand tu passes.
