Cutting your hair can be a nerve-wracking experience, especially if you’ve always had long hair. Probably one the scariest moments ever is when you’re sitting in the salon chair already in a panic as you listen to the hairdresser’s shears snipping away and worrying that they’re cutting off too much of your hard-earned hair, then seeing a chunk of long hair fall to the ground right next to you.
