cw / tw emotional abuseSoooo about 11 months ago I shaved my whole head due to some interpersonal stress that had triggered my scalp eczema, and 3 months after that I got out of an emotionally abusive / toxic / manipulative friendship. I only intended to keep my hair until the end of last year but idk i thought it might be fun to try and keep it again since i`m back in school and who knows when i`ll be able to do this bc of work and office dress codes or whatever. I started to view my hair growth in parallel to emotional recovery, since i shaved it off around that time, and lets just say IT HASNT BEEN EASY BC my god my scalp and ears went completely berserk bc of the constant contact/ heat/ dirt/ general irritation but like… its gonna be a year in a couple weeks and this is the longest ive ever had it AND had the knowledge about how to take care of it. idk i thought id draw some choice moments from the last few months, since i’ve had a rather strenuous relationship with my hair in this period (i.e. I almost impulse shaved 3 times)i`ll maybe reblog with some of the reference pictures bc ive been thoroughly documenting my hair (i started to notice hairfall around last week and starting obsessing even though all the long haired ppl in my life… essentially all the women… said it was normal and im like IM FALLING APART but whatveer) anyway ive written much more than i expected and its entirely possible that fucker will see this but doesnt matter lmaoalso my bf has been rlly great throughout this ordeal even though the rship was strained and idk… defos couldnt have come out of this w/o him and like he’s stopped me from shaving my head on a few occasions haha, im terribly lucky to have the support of my friends and family too so im just like… i need to hair to THRIVE as a physical manifestation/representation of recovery i guess -- source link
