I love the transition from a panicked „I can’t believe I’m doing this“ to „If you want to cut your own hair, go ahead“ and „Should I go shorter?“. I did a drastic cut a few years ago (butt-length to pixie cut) and it was the most freeing thing. The new style looks amazing on you!

[@a.k.v.3042]

I've done that chop - twice. It was awesome! I'm back to having long hair. It hasn't annoyed me enough to cut it again (yet).

[@DarkMidnightPrincess]

Same! Maybe a few days before this video was uploaded I went from past-butt-length to pretty much the same length as Lucy, based on a split-second decision at the hairdresser's. When she cut off the first half a meter of hair in one go (so I wouldn't have a way to back out again), I immediately went like "what the hell did I just do?! 😭". Got even worse when my hair was wet and just hanging down straight but once it dried I immediately loved it to my own big surprise. Now I even regret a bit that I didn't go even shorer

[@whoeverb.7760]

This length with those bangs suits your face soo well, and it looks really healthy and thick, also effortlessly more sophisticated!

[@agentcallisto]

My mom is a hairdresser, so growing up I got accustomed to getting haircuts and having lots of different styles. Conversely, I had several friends who were emotionally attached to their hair and had a hard time even going in for trims. My philosophy has always been your new one: get the haircut! It grows back and trying different styles helps you realize what’s flattering on you. This length is really flattering and makes your hair look so full! I love it.

[@kayceevallozzi]

It looks so good!! What a fitting time to go for something completely different. New home, new hair!

[@gildedgitta]

Your hair looks so much healthier now, great job! Cutting short hair on yourself is hard, but you learn to balance mirrors around if needed haha. Its definitely harder than cutting long hair but you did great!

[@hollybrooke322]

I’m loving the shorter hair. Looks much fuller and suits your face well.

[@morganfiona8378]

Your hair looks so healthy with the chop! I've been growing out a pixie cut (which i also swore i would never get lol) and for cutting long bobs, i recommend using the two pigtails, but when you tie the elastics, tilt your chin up to make it shorter in the back! Also, to minimize choppiness, i recommend using the same vertical little snips that you use on your bangs when you do the very last cut!

[@dawnbaby]

Great tips! Do you have any for getting the back bit, in the middle, straight? xx

[@morganfiona8378]

@@dawnbaby if you tilt your head up when you're gathering the pigtails it will give it less of a U shape and make your hair more even all around! And when you're cleaning the bottoms up after, go in sections held by your pointer and middle finger and follow the general angle that was made by the initial cut but even it out!

[@dawnbaby]

@@morganfiona8378 Thank you lovely for taking the time to reply and helping xx

[@ClaireRousseau]

Ohhhh, that length looks SO CUTE on you! So glad to see you take time to do a fun thing just for you in the middle of the move/renovation, it's such a stressful time.

[@PseudonymCassy]

I love your hair like this, it looks so much fuller and healthier. I cut my hair often to just at my shoulders and find it holds such better curls when I do wet set pin curls, versus any other method. Once it gets longer, it’s all out the window.

[@LillyJeanne]

Really like this look on you. The hair truly looks so much fuller. Now I'm thinking about cutting my own hair.

[@Puckty]

I love how your "short" hair is my "long" hair. I was just amazed with how long my hair is for the first time in my life and here I am watching your video about how short it is 😂 (I couldn't have it long cause my hair used to be very heavy and having it much longer than chin length gave me migraines) But this shorter hair looks so cute one you, and it definitely looks thicker and healthier. It looks amazing with your face.

[@mealmoth8369]

I have been growing my hair out for the last few years, and I'm reaching the point where I'm tempted to go back to the shorter styles I used to wear - good on you trying it out! You're completely right, anyone should just try a cut themselves at least once if they want to

[@varsha1010]

OMGGG you did such a good job. This length suits you so well!

[@emmajansson4288]

That looks very good on you, and it looks so full and fluffy. A tip for cutting your own hair: Wash it afterwards. That allows you to look for hidden tresses thats longer. And it's a good trick to really see if everything is the right length/not choppy. The waves might otherwise hide that. I cut my own hair into bobs that shorter than yours, and that always helps me when dubblechecking

[@bastillemyheart]

It looks so good and healthy!! And I’d love more hair content at this length, it’s what I have! I actually used to have a pixie so I know how it feels to cut so much hair off at once, your head feels lighter on your shoulders haha

[@celiur]

Well done! About having a pixie haircut, I was like you but then I was forced to start over with a pixie after a hair loss and I was surprised to find it cute, fun and feminine on me. I started noticing that when someone is soft and feminine, a pixie haircut looks feminine. It would be the same for you so don't worry about that, no haircut can make you less feminine, I think it's mostly about your attitude 🙂

[@mj6312]

Honestly I really needed to hear something like that, I have waist-lenght hair and have been thinking of cutting it short but I was unconsciously so worried it would make me looks less feminine (I mean there's nothing wrong with not wanting to look feminine it's just that I personally really like feminine stuff) but what you say is right, a haircut wouldn't make me any less feminine

[@azalea.9]

@@mj6312 for a someone who has a waist length hair A pixie will be a big and a drastic change that you may not accept so try to take babies steps and be careful on this

[@eraserheadarts]

I've never been this early!! You've been my hair inspo for years and I actually have a bob ATM, so I can't wait to see the styles you come up with!

[@J8n3eyr3]

Love it! I did the same trim-turned-cut thing to my hair for the same issues you did. The hair looks much fuller and healthier now. Singing the ends has also been a gamechanger for me!

[@callida61]

The new haircut suits you soo much! Your hair looks so healthy and full! Gorgeous!

[@lmkays]

It looks so much thicker! Really nice

[@kateparker391]

I love it! Looks great, and it's always fun to see someone having fun with and enjoying their hair! Update - I loved it so much that I then went and bought some hairdressing scissors and cut my waist length hair into a bob! Turns out cutting your own hair is great fun (although I am going to have a friend fix the back for me in a couple days 😂)

[@origami6796]

This looks absolutely lovely. I also think that glasses and short hair tend to look very stylish together, so this fits with the fact that you seem to be wearing glasses more often than I remember from being an old-school viewer of this channel!

[@meghanborrasca3900]

I’m 34 and found my first gray hair the other day! I was like nooooo! Lol, I do love women who embrace their gray, and I love a full head of that nice silver colored hair. I’ve been watching you for YEARS, and your hair videos have helped me be able to cut my own hair which definitely came in handy during the pandemic! I haven’t been to a hair salon in at least 3 years now.

[@MydNyteRayne]

try going gray at 18 like I did!!

[@octavia088]

You look beautiful in your new haircut! Waves will appear for sure after your hair learns it is not weighted down anymore. A true “Bob”, my hairdresser told me, is longer in the front, angled to shorter in the back. The angle can be gradual or sharp depending on how “edgy” you want it to look.

[@zanili]

Haven’t seen the result yet, but I think it will suit you well ! Edit: it looks so nice, good job !!!!

[@lw8186]

It looks so cute, and I can't wait to see the different ways you style it! It's a perfect length for vintage curls! 😊 P.S. Technically, it's not a bob unless it's above the shoulders, but it's still cute and looks so thick! 🙂

[@lathafalls7675]

Oh my god Lucy!!! This length looks so good on you! 😱😍

[@juniperdovah]

I remember back when you were trying to reach waist length and now here you are chop chopping! Must be so liberating! I always love to randomly grab my hair and just chop it off. It makes me feel better and my hair also gets stringy now on the ends, so I always like to chop it where it's fullest :) Looks wonderful Lucy!

[@52hello25]

Thank you for talking about your gray hairs. I just turned 30 and was feeling really sad because I found two gray hairs on my head. I felt like I was the only one my age going through it, but it makes me feel better to know that others have gray hairs too.

[@greaterthanme876]

I love it, Lucy, but much more importantly, I hope you love it even more every day! I always wonder how you seem to perfect the vision you have in your mind almost every time you try something new; it is a talent for sure!

[@AbyssalKhaos]

Omg I LOVE IT! I loved the armpit length on you too, but the shorter bob is so fun, I can't wait to see how it behaves when you wash it! Aaand I can feel the urge to cut my hip length thick ass hair into a bob coming back

[@melima_]

It looks sooooo good!! And I can't wait to see the brush outs 😍

[@franklyiamacat4744]

It looks really nice! I cut my hair from waist length to shoulder length, too, 2 years ago after having had long hair for most of my life and liked it a lot! I've grown it out again now because I also really like long hair but at some point I'm gonna go back to short hair again.

[@BVoshol]

Oh hey! You ended up with the same length of hair I currently have! I've been growing it out since I cut it into a chin length bob and realized that wasn't a good length for me! (I like to put my hair up) but this length I find really versatile as you can put it up, braid it, etc but it's still pretty easy to manage down.

[@larilaridictionari]

Lucy, it looks so good!!! Can't wait to see how you style it, brush-outs really do work so much better with shorter hair

[@chezamoonangelaiemma497]

You look gorgeous 😍 I cut my back mid length into a bob myself back in 2017 when I turned 30 years old. It was fun and very different for me but I decided to grow it out again. Now I have close to tailbone length but it is a fun journey to make changes. You look so cute 😍 I think you did a great job cutting it yourself. Love your videos as always 💕

[@Deogratias562]

I love it, it looks so much thicker too, I am loving the home renovation videos too...

[@yougotmeinstitches1847]

Haya. I gasped when you did. I cut my hair many years ago & it was the worst thing ever as it has never grown to the length I used to have it, I miss long hair so very much. If you ever go short, try out some wigs, that way you can play around without the loss of cutting your beautiful hair. The good thing with long hair is you get the best of both worlds, long & short, once hair goes short it stays short for a bunch of time unless luck has it that hair grows quickly. Thanku so much for sharing. x

[@bad_egg000]

Your cutting your own bangs video is the first time I've watched this channel and the rest is history. Your bob looks refreshing and good to you 💕🌷

[@aliiannucci3135]

It looks so full and healthy!! I chopped 10 inches (25 cm) off last summer and it was so freeing! Be sure to shake your hair around a lot and rock the pigtails. Also, been following since the sock bun days and I can't believe you finally chopped it!! I go through phases and short hair can be so fun, and then by the time you're over it it's grown out anyway lol

[@ItsThatJo]

Your hair looks so good! Well done, Lucy! And welcome to the short hair club 😊 Once you join it, you never really leave haha

[@Kahrowleen]

Love how it looks 🥰and the pure chaos in this video. Also your reaction to it and getting more confident is awesome .you definitely inspired me also

[@AgnesN]

Oh my god she did it, she actually did it!!! When I saw the title, my brain went "what?? this must be clickbait... but Loepsie doesn't do clickbait... oh my god, I have click and see". Haha. But seriously the Loepsie I have been following for 11 years actually cut her hair short, what a milestone!! It looks really cute, I've had all lengths of hair from pixie cut to hip length, but I really love this length myself very much. And it just made me so happy to see how excited you got once it started to go shorter and shorter. Loved this video, the reaction was so genuine

[@devancarpenter9706]

It looks great! Definitely appears fuller... You did it!!! 🤗🤗

[@sashajones7322]

I remember watching you cut your bangs a few years ago and now watching you do this is amazing! Always inspired by your transformations! 🖤

[@jmcmurrah]

It looks sooooo good! You'll find you have more waves automatically now that the length is shorter. :)

[@MishezzieMay]

It looks so much thicker?!!?!? Magic! Looks gorgeous on you x

[@melissahouse3488]

I appreciate your carefree attitude & admire that as I'm trying to acquire such trying to gain the nerve to get my bottom length, THICK heavy hair cut and like you, even a down my back some is what I now consider sort of "short!" in comparison to what I've lived with. Mine was already down my back but I refrained from cutting it aside from some dustings, throughout the Covid pandemic. It physically hurts, weighing down my weak neck and the snarls are horrendous 😥 It has become dry and no longer very healthy nor manageable. I still have an emotional attachment unfortunately that is to a detriment with my daily life and the pain I'm in carrying all this weight around. People who are ridiculous about long hair do not care to consider that and it's disgusting!!! I love the freshly cut line, how healthy your hair looks just cut and this has helped me to start accepting that it's just hair!!! My culture believes hair is sacred, of the soul. Not to the extent it's damaged & a literal pain!!! It takes hours to comb through and it snarls into rats nests constantly, I know it's time!!! It was in beautiful condition but the signs can't be ignored and I think your hair looks Fuller & healthier too, freshly cut!!! Your fun approach and not taking the matter too serious is helping me!!! Although I will go to have someone do it, I'm not brave & adventurous as you!!! 😉 You remind me of Daphne from Frasier!!! 🌹💇🏼‍♀️ Anyways, you have beautiful hair and you did a decent job considering you had no help, you did better than many pro's out there I've had!!! 🙄😟 Your head probably feels a little lighter, I hope you enjoy your new look!!! 🌸💄👧🏻💕

[@sarahbhutta251]

Great job! I went from hip length to shoulder length when I was pregnant with my 2nd. Your hair looks healthier and thicker.

[@francie4149]

Absolutely fabulous!! Love it ❤️❤️

[@asiawilk]

Oh wow!! It is actually insane how much fuller it does look at this length, it looks like totally different hair! This suits you SO WELL!! I loveee it and you look beautiful with short hair :)

[@irisl7817]

I have had a bob just barely above my shoulders, then grew my hair long, an asymmetrical bob around chin length, and other styles in between. I learned through the process that long hair made me feel the most like myself...and my bangs, which you inspired me to get several years ago. But, yeah, it took so many different hairstyles to find out which made me feel the best. Your hair looks so healthy. I think the cut did you good. It's so full!

[@beatrice1775]

I love this!!! I can't believe I remember when you cut your bangs for the first time, I've been watching your for probably about 6 years now!

[@Elin.Noller]

Looks so much better and healthier, well done

[@ginadelfina5887]

It's so cute! You were right, making it shorter does make it look thicker, especially now that the ends are more blunt cut rather than feathered. By the end, it was like you sort of got addicted to cutting it shorter and shorter!

[@jess1987]

It looks really great!!! I, know that daunting feeling when you're about to cut your hair! I, had to cut my tailbone length hair this week 😭. My hair was damaged due to a couple of immune reasons, as well as, split ends all the way up. As, I, did the first cut; I, wanted to cry. And then, went for the short bob... At first, I, was like; "What have, I, done!" But, then, I, realised how freeing it was and, I, let go of some stress. Now, just gotta get it healthier to start growing it out again!

[@violetstarla]

You look so much better! I mean you’re absolutely gorgeous, but I always envisioned you with a shorter bob. Your hair was looking tired. I find this cut suits your face completely and you can keep it straight very femme fatale or curl it 20s-30s style! Great choice! Super chic!

[@elvisneedsboatsbennett2455]

I have grey stripes at each temple and I love them. I also cut about six or eight inches off my hair last week and it felt so good to have all that hair cut off. It made my hair curl better in the back of my head.

[@caleydrake6805]

The fullness! Love it

i actually think the final length works better than the one before it, it looks more like a deliberate haircut rather than hair that's in the middle of growing out imo the length u ended up w/ is super cute and suits u very well

That length looks really good on you! I cut my hair from belly button length to shoulder length a few years ago and ever since that initial chop I’ve always preferred shoulder length on me. I tried growing it out for a while, I also tried a chin length Bob once, but no matter what length I try I always long back to my go to shoulder length. I hope you love your hair at that length as much as I do. It looks great and it looks so full and healthy now.

Great result. Reminds me of the length of Quinn from Glee's hair in Come See About Me (except brown, obviously)

[@johannajf7914]

I was also really attached to my long hair despite being tired of taking care of it, I cut a few inches of every few months for a year until I'd gone from waist lenght to collarbone. Every time it was more fun than scary & as I did it myself it didn't feel like wasted $ like when a hairdresser doesnt cut it how you want.

I saw a newer vid of you before this one and now seeing this vid, your hair is SO freaking cute shorter! def keep it that way

[@Rainbowdust74]

Well done! I cut my own hair, too. My method is to let my hair get really oily. I'll go four to five days without a shampoo. Then I'll just cut little bits at a time. I'll hold a hand mirror in one hand with my back to the bathroom mirror, then with the other hand, I'll just cut a little bit in the back. It's then easy to cut a little bit more to the same length I cut the first bit. I just keep going until I've gone all around my head, though I always start with the front. It's just little bits at a time, though. My technique seems to work well. It always turns out nicely, and when I cut it when it's super oily, it's just easiest--far better than wet. I do a lot of combing and cutting of little bits, again and again. Last time, the entire cut took one hour.

[@MissLauraSquared]

This haircut looks so cute on you! I’ve been subscribed to your channel for 10 years (I know, I can’t believe it’s been that long either!) and I feel like I’ve walked with you, per se, in so many of your hair changes. Whether that was hair loss, regrowth, or dyeing it a different color. Anyway, I think this length really suits you! Your hair looks so much thicker and fuller. I hope you’re enjoying it!

[@tigrezangel]

I like the length you stopped. It looks nice, feminine and healthy. I also have decided to go for a shorter hair style after many years of really long hair and I am super happy with it. To me, short hair is super easy to manage.

I went super short three times in my life. The first was when I was six and wanted a pixie cut from my butt length blonde hair. I was told my father teared up when he saw it. The second was when I was pregnant and China Phillips’ cut was in. I hated it. The last time was when I was 38 and I lost my hair from chemo due to breast cancer. That taught me that hair is just hair. It will grow back! If you look good in short hair, go for it. It’s much easier. But long is also easier because you can just throw it up in a bun! Do what makes you happy. In all things!

[@elizabethw.6154]

I cut my hair two nights ago (at midnight 😜). The first time I ever did layers myself. I followed Brad Mondo's recent tutorial and it turned out pretty good. I still think I need to lose maybe another inch or two of length, but I really like how less bulky thick my hair is with layers. I've gone from hip length hair last year to shoulder blade length right now.
