I decided to cut off in the middle. I decided to disregard everyone else and just do what was best for me, which was to start cutting gradually to make sure I was happy with it all.
To chop it all off just felt not like me and it felt not like the right choice for me. It felt like a hasty decision that I might come to regret and this way I could make varying decisions and not regret any of them.
I was able to make the decision that was right for me at the moment and be able to not regret it.
Congratulations! I think you did wonderfully in deciding how to do this, taking time to consider your own wishes/desires, rather than doing more than you wanted so that you could donate your hair. It is time to think of yourself, and take care of yourself gently, compassionately, lovingly, and you are! I am proud of you!!!!
