Here's a list of 10 reasons why every woman should cut off their hair at least once in their life.

The Payoff

Giphy

You know that feeling when you’ve been telling yourself that you’ll do something, again and again, until it feels like it’s a constant nagging in your own brain. Well this is one of those things. Once you do it, a huge weight will be lifted from your shoulders.

Your hair does NOT define you

Giphy

You are who you are, because of what you’ve learned in life, and what you’ve decided to take with you on your journey. You are not who are you, because of your jean size, or the length of your hair.

People think their opinion matters more than your own

Giphy

The minute you mention that you want to cut your hair, everyone wants to tell you their opinion on why you shouldn’t. Doesn’t that make you just want to do it more?

Society says you shouldn’t

Giphy

Long hair is beauty....Right?

Wrong. Prove to society that our beauty lies within, and that we as women can do whatever we damn well please.

Sometimes change is needed

Giphy

Life takes you on some unexpected turns, and sometimes you just need something new. Whether you’re trying to find yourself again, or you want a new look, cutting your hair is that type of change that will make you finally BREATHE again.

It grows back

Giphy

It’s hair remember? It’ll grow back. Yeah, it might take you a few years, but didn’t you waste a few years waiting on your ex to change too? Why not do something for you this time around.

You’ll rock it

Giphy

Stop comparing yourself, and do something that scares you, and changes the way you see yourself. I’d say cutting your hair off is pretty damn scary, but you know what? You’ll rock it, and that confidence will feel better than anything you’ve ever felt before.

Men do it

Giphy

We keep saying woman can do anything that men can, but for some reason when we grow our armpit hair, or bulk up our muscles, people say we shouldn’t. Cut off your hair girl. Look better than your boss, and ten times like your father!

Fear is in the past

Giphy

We give birth, we clean, we cook, we inspire, we get the money, we boss up, we run the world. Don’t you want to add “rocks short hair” on that list too?

It’ll change your life

Giphy

Just trust me on this one. Cutting your hair is one thing that you can only understand, after you do it. And remember, you’re a bad bitch no matter what you do it. Pick your head, go for it, and be a better you. Show younger girls that nothing defines who we are! You got this!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
