Ladies, ever want to try something different with your hair? Every girl has gone through it: the desire to change up their look. What better way to make a statement than to cut it all off? Of course, it sounds scary, overwhelming, or whatever you may call it, but "the big chop" could be the start of an amazing adventure!

Most women hesitate to cut their hair because they're afraid they won't like it. Make sure you find a cut/style that compliments your head! Not everything you see on Instagram or on your television is the perfect style for you. For an example, usually, a shaved head compliments women with narrower heads. Hairstyles take a lot of experimenting, and courage at that. No one likes walking around feeling like they have to keep a head wrap or hat on! (Trust me, that was me a few weeks ago).

I've learned that when you get a big haircut, even if you don't like it at first after it gets that "old" look, your feelings might change. I will never forget my first time hating a cut. I cried and cried, but after a week or so when my hair started growing out, I began to love it. Now, I couldn't see myself going back to a longer hairstyle!

If you're too afraid to do it all at once, cut with increments of an inch, or shave the back. Short hair does come with a bunch of commitment, but once you find the cut for you, you'll be invincible.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
