If you're like me, you love changing your hair on a monthly basis. I love wearing wigs and box braids. I love cutting and dying my hair as well.

It's a way of expressing one's self and provides creativity in a fun way. When changing your hair often is a way of expressing yourself, it can be pretty difficult when others judge you for it, especially if it's your significant other.

Here are some things that have been said to me that you shouldn't say to your girlfriend or loved one if she decides to cut her hair.

1. "I liked it better when it was longer."

Giphy

No. Just, no. There is no way to magically grow it back in one second so don't try to make her regret it.

2. "You kind of look like a guy."

Giphy

REALLY? If your girlfriend identifies as a girl, chances are she wouldn't like being called a boy. Don't do this, please.

3. "Why don't you wear a wig or extensions?"

Asia Richardson

I love wearing wigs but if you tell me to cover up a haircut that I paid for because you don't like it, then I probably will have to go back to being single.

4. "How long do you think it'll take to grow back?"

Giphy

Probably longer than you're relationship will last if you keep asking dumb questions.

5. "Don't cut it again."

Giphy

Having a girlfriend doesn't mean having a piece of property so don't even attempt to tell her what to do. It's the same with loved ones as well.

6. "You must be insecure with yourself."

Asia Richardson

This hurts coming from anyone. Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to be in a bad place in your life to want to randomly cut your hair down short.

7. "You look gay."

Giphy

It's 2018 people. Girls can have short hair, guys can have long hair, and "gay" IS NOT an insult.

8. "I don't like short hair on a girl."

Giphy

Everyone is allowed to have a preference but if you've already made her your girlfriend and you care more about her hair than her, then you shouldn't be dating her.

9. "If you don't stay consistent, people will think you don't know yourself."

Asia Richardson

All in all, it IS just hair. It will grow back. Why can't I change my hair often and also know exactly who I am?

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.
