I CUT MY HAIR | breakage, regrets, goals, silk press, protective styles

[@deebos7193]

I love my natural hair, BUT! like you, i dreaded the wash days and the detangling and the styling. In 2021, i made the decision to loc my hair and have fallen back in love with my hair. It was a struggle...I feel you.

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

It sounds like you made the right decision for you! Locs are gorgeous!

[@diannewoolery419]

Your hair is beautiful no matter what length 😍

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thank you so much 😀

[@Vlindertjeab]

Shanique is so beautiful!! 😍🙌🏾❤️

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Aw thank you so much

[@tevshaqcarr]

Your hair is beautiful ❤ You did a great job, and I love the length.

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thank you so much!

[@melw8319]

I absolutely can agree with you! Once you have 4c waist length hair you dread wash day😢.. my hair is sitting at waist length and i put off wash day for as long as possible!

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

I know the feeling - those long wash days are a commitment. Do you plan to cut anytime soon?

[@selenat264]

Hair is still pretty and healthy! It will grow back fast though.

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

I appreciate that!

[@Vlindertjeab]

Shanique is so beautiful!! 😍🙌🏾❤️ Pink suits you so beautifully 🌸🌸

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thank you so much!!

[@DW-tt8si]

Soo pretty! It'll grow back fast! The thickness is soo beautiful ❤

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thank you so much! It's nice to have some healthy ends again.

[@humor1973]

Your hair is absolutely gorgeous, I love it!!!

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Aw thank you so much!

[@shabeauty4262]

I just did the exact same. Waist length and took 6 inches off due to hair thinning. The ends just looked terrible and needed to go to make it all look uniform again. I think yours looks great!

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

It's amazing how much better it looks when you chop off the damaged ends!

[@daisy-j5s]

Absolutely superb...what a blessing😇

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

You are so kind

[@JacintaNwabuogu]

Firstly, you are gorgeous and your hair is healthy and beautiful. Secondly your hair grows fast, so by this time next year it will grow back. Love the shine and thickness. Happy hair growing! ❤

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Aw thank you for the kind words and encouragement!

[@kinghill500]

Your hair is so gorgeous ❤❤❤

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thank you

[@AngellaMarieTV]

I personally love the cut. Your haircut story reminds me of my own haha. I did the same thing. My hair is growing back really quickly and healthier now.

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

I’m glad you’re experiencing healthy hair growth!

[@Cherryvanilla4122]

Same issues here. My hair was a little past waist length and I cut it to exact waist length. Still have so many end knots, tangles, and I too dread wash day. I may just cut more. It’s such a core to have natural long hair for me, I miss being relaxed 😢

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

It sounds like a cut could be the best thing for you, too! Relaxed hair was so much easier. I agree

[@ExclusiveBarbie94]

Happy Wednesday 😀

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Happy Wednesday to you too!

[@NinthJewel]

Your hair is still so long 😍🙌🏿🙌🏿 I wish my hair grew this long!! 😅

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

lol yes when it’s straight. But as soon as water touches it… 😭 it’ll be short

[@deidreej]

Your hair is beautiful 💙🤍

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

I appreciate it!

[@BlueberryBaby22]

Love the cut. I got a silk press last week and I ended up cutting it last night to about armpit length for similar reasons. I have about the same amount of shrinkage and I'm looking forward to less work.

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Bring on the shorter wash days! I can’t wait. I honestly wanted to go shorter but my shrinkage is crazy!!!

[@deebos7193]

it is still beautiful.😍🥰

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thank you so much

[@francinewalker8149]

Looks good!🤓👍🏽

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

I think so too! 😄

[@Sa_bribri]

Omg I just did the same thing! It was becoming too much! I cut my hair to a bob! I'm nervous about my curl shape 😅

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Right!! But wash day will be so much shorter 😁

[@myrnaj4502]

❤❤🥰

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Thanks for the love

[@Suzan.Mhelembe]

💞💞💞

[@22dolxxxphin22]

Ahahah... your short hair is my long hair 😂😢😂

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Long only when it’s straight lol

[@prissNcurlss]

You can use 2-3 rods together to make it as large as the lady you showed in the video.

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

Good idea, I’ll have to give that a try.
