i'm a 17 year old male i've been growing my hair out for about a year, and it was about shoulder length...
however, like two days ago i thought about having short hair and made a stupid mistake and went out and got a severe cut, and now i'm really regretting it and wanting my long hair back.
it's really not that short now, my bangs go to my mouth (about , but all my hair in back is gone, cut at least 3 or 4 inches. my plan is to just let it grow back, and in about 6 months it should be back to where it was before i was an idiot and chopped it off.
i feel really stupid and can't stop beating myself up for it... i know it'll grow back, but i feel like i've betrayed my long-haired-self.
has anyone else done this and lived through it? please offer any help you can, i feel like a real ass now...
and i've learned my lesson, too... don't cut it off unless you absolutely have to!

Yup. Been there, done that, although I didn't regret it instantly. I got my hair layered and it looked great for about two weeks, after that every day was a bad hair day! Now I'm trying to grow the layers out of it - the shortest one is jaw length, the rest is well past shoulders!

I second that!
Good luck dude. At least six months is not as bad as 1 1/2 years as it is for me, maybe knowing that will help you, lol
