Everyone should do this. I’ve noticed that as soon as someone has all their hair cut off, they become full of confidence and shine brighter. You look amazing!
I've always been so self conscious of my neck and profile - I'm kinda round and I don't have that whole 'cut jaw' look. I was so worried but I did it anyway . I love it but sometimes I catch myself in the mirror or in photos and think 'omg I'm so fat!!' and I hate that about myself. I want to just BE. Every single photo and video of people shaving their heads are so thin!
I’m thinking of it! I’m 40, and I’m about a size 18. Most of the women I’ve seen with buzzed hair are super thin, so I love that you posted this. You look fantastic, and I love that I’m getting a better idea of how it might look on me. I figured that now that I’m working from home, there’s no better time to try it! I currently have hair down to my booty, by the way!
This brought tears to my eyes. Pure joy. I am plus size and really want to get rid of my hair. I live in Phoenix and its 115°F and I am 8 months pregnant. Lol I am dying! I used to play with wigs and extensions and all kinds of fun. Would love to buzz it all off, start fresh (no more damaged hair) and play in wigs when I feel like it. Thank you for the self esteem boost. You look BEAUTIFUL.
Thanks for the encouragement!! I didn't shave it yet.. waiting until after baby gets here, but I did go for a super short pixie cut last night to get me used to the idea! Very freeing to not hide behind my hair anymore. :) Much love to you on your weight loss journey!!! Can't wait to see how you're doing in 6 months from now. ♥️
Awww! I bet that pixie cut is SO cute on you! Do you have photos posted on instagram or anywhere? I’d love to see! And thank you! It has definitely been a journey so far! ❤️😊
I've not uploaded any as of yet but will soon when baby gets here next month. :) I don't have Facebook (politics break my heart) and my Instagram account is LAZY and entirely focused on my kids. 🙄😂 I'm just one of those lurkers. Haha
@@DomBarber actually no, i dont know who will care about my hair... and most people i know still ask me when i will grow my hair...even if i will never grow my hair again... because i enjoy it like this too much❤️
I wish I could have your courage. I am 33, married and have a 5 year old and I have been wanting this for years, my husband supports me, he even told me he could do it, but I sabotage myself, thinking of what other people will say...... thank you so much for this video I identified myself with a lot you said! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Aww! I finally just said “the heck with what other people may think!” And did it! I encourage you to do the same if it is what you really want! It is so cathartic to have such a drastic change. And honestly I love the length it is now a few months later. I’m enjoying the new ways I can style it and change up my look. I also love just throwing a hat over it when I am too lazy to wet it and style it in the mornings! Lol
Fuck other people's opinions, I was always told my head was too small compared to my body because I'm a plus sized woman, it's so unbelievably rude stay in your own business. You look great ❤️
This is so awesome! I love seeing plus size women do different things with their hair!! I feel like there isn’t as much to see for plus size ladies and I like watching videos for inspiration. I had a full undercut but have been letting it grow out. Now that it’s hot though I’m thinking it might be time to buzz underneath again lol 😂 You look beautiful and totally rock this look!!
I love this cut on you! I am also on the fence about cutting my hair because of my weight and long face. You definitely rock this look. I am inspired to take the leap myself...I think. LOL!
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! Your hair and you look phenomenal! I too am a plus size woman who's been told forever that short cuts are for thin women. You just majorly proved that wrong! I've wanted to do this for as long as I can remember, and have decided to take the leap. I have clippers on order from Amazon. It's funny how different I feel just having made the decision! It's like taking my life back. I'll be doing it myself, too - not lucky like you to have a sister to do it. What the heck, right? Anyway, thank you so much, Megan. Seeing your video tonight was really a gift.
thank you for posting, I’ve been thinking about shaving my head but I can’t help but to think of how my chubby face would look 😪!! YOU LOOK AMAZING 😩❤️❤️
This really suits you and makes you look so much more interesting! I did the same recently, and I'm so glad I decided to stop listening to those that told me not you.
Thank you!! It is growing on me! I do unfortunately have a weird part at the top from the CPAP mask I wear at night and I have not been able to figure out how to style my hair so that there isn’t a dip there. Like I can’t get it to stand up and in that area or the areas around it to lie flat. The struggle!! Lol
Merci pour cette vidéo ! 🌸😉 J'ai 47 ans et je pense à faire un Buzz cut depuis des années!!! J'y pense beaucoup depuis 6 mois et j'ai décidé de passer à l'action à l'occasion de mon anniversaire (cette semaine). 😊 Votre Buzz cut vous va très bien et vous êtes toujours vous! C'est toujours votre visage, vos yeux, votre sourire. 💕
Thank you for sharing this, I googled cause my mom is starting chemo soon and I want to shave my head with her so she doesn’t have to do it alone, but I won’t lie im nervous cause of being plus sized. But this video really helped , thank you !
Zaida Alvarez Thank you! I am glad I took the plunge and did it too! I love it even more now that it has been a few months and it has grown a bit into a cute pixie style.
Good for you!! I think every woman should shave their head at least once in their life. For me, it was REALLY freeing, and a step forward in my journey to stop being so obsessed about what others think about how I look.
I haven’t watched the video yet, but thank you so much for posting this. I am trying to detach myself from my hair because, as a plus size woman, I hide behind my hair a lot. I will be cutting my hair off as soon as I finish watching :)
ty for this video: i needed this representation. im plus size too and i got a buzzcut yesterday. i however have very thin hair and some slight bald spots (alopecia) so i was soooo insecure/scared about showing off this vulnerability, but i always wanted to shave my head. and yes i definitely hid behind my hair too, it's like a curtain of security and protection almost. your hair is very thick so it's not as baldy looking as mine, but im still glad i did it just so that i finally know what it's like. it does give me a bit of anxiety but i hope I'll get used to it and grow a little more confident with this new look in the upcoming weeks. but just one day in and i already wonder how fast it will grow back and every time i see myself in the mirror, im genuinely shocked. irl it looks better than in pictures imo, but i still catch myself thinking that it does accentuates my fatness/roundness in a negative way. but that is 100% internalized fatphobia and im aware of that. i kind of want to dress more androgynous now and feel actually more stylish (since it's so in fashion rn) but then i remember that most of the stylish buzzcut ladies r usually very skinny and it makes me insecure again, so it's a push-and-pull situation for sure. very torn abt it in general but right after i did it i was excited and i think just for that experience alone it was worth it
You look so cute! This is the video I needed to boost my confidence before my haircut! I have short hair already, and I want to try a buzzcut but I was scared because my face is really wide, especially when I smile. I'm saving this for future haircuts :)
I absolutely love it!! You look fierce!!! I'm almost 30 and my hair is so damaged. I'm so scared to shave it tho especially since I to am plus size. I hope I can get the courage soon to do it myself!!
I stood in the bathroom last night crying wanting to shave mine. Ive wanted to do it for years, and I have both sides and underneath shaved. But doing the whole thing is so scary. I hate feeling like its not as acceptable for women who aren't super thin to shave their heads. I'm also not into how as women we're told that our hair holds more beauty than the rest of us. Like we need it to be attractive and thats just am awful way to feel. I think you look beautiful and I was so happy to see how it turned out. Maybe one day I'll be able to do it and just go for it. 💜
Terri Taylor Awww. Thank you for your kind words and vulnerability in sharing this with me. ❤️ I hope if you do it someday you document it! I would love to see it and hear what you have to say about it!
You look nice!! I am a plus size gal and just started to lose my hair a couple of months ago. Mine is pretty buzzed but I am embracing it and feeling good again.
Wow! Love the video and love the comments :-) everybody is saying all the things that I'm thinking and I think I might actually Buzz my hair tomorrow. Never had hair shorter than being able to put it in pigtails. But I don't really have anyone around to judge me come to think of it. And at work I can wear hat if I don't really like it that much. Maybe I can use some of that colored spray if I end up having bald spots LOL
Omg you look SO GOOD!!!😍 I am so surprised that it made your face look actually thinner cuz I want to shave my hair but my mom always tells me that I don't have a thin face .and you look sooo cute I Love it so happy for you
I've been thinking about it for so long, I've been going shorter and shorter for years now, but I never felt brave enough to make the leap, mostly because I only saw examples on thin women, and being plus size myself I was and still am so unsure... but seeing you going through with it (and it looks so good on you!) I might be able to as well one day 😊
You look amazing !❤❤ I'm so happy for you ! I want to shave my head so bad but unsure cos of my puffy face.. this really inspired me!😍 i dont think we have to wait till we loose weight to make a change
Get it girl!!!! 😊 I’m so happy you do what you want regardless of what others think!!! I need to learn how to do that more often 💕 you’re gorgeous no matter what style you have! Love the new look 😊💯
Megan Lewallen you’re very welcome! ❤️ I just did an undercut yesterday to go with my pixie that I’ve had for a year now, short hair don’t care! 😊💯 I’m happy you’re still loving it! I love my hair short so much! Long hair is way too overrated!
Hey! I’m rather late to the party, and I’m not very related to this video as I am a stick like human, but what length was your hair when you buzzed it? This is the kind of look I’m going for, and I wanted to know how long :)
Megan Lewallen I think I’m gonna buzz it when I’m around the age that I ain’t gonna be living with my mum. I wanna get a rose tattoo on one of my thighs while getting a nose piercing! I’m legit aching for this and I can’t wait for it! Also this was a shock that you’d reply haha! Thank you for giving me confidence and I really love your hair style, it honestly looks gorgeous! 💕🥰
You look Beautiful…I have always wanted to do this; however always felt that my face was too plump!!! Who cares I’m going for it..For me it’s releasing the past. Thanks for sharing❤️❤️
im 20 and got my head shaved first time ever the 3rd of jan :))) it was amazing i had so much fears cos im also plus size, fears i had a weird head and all my curly, frizzy long hair is goneeee. my mom helped me shave to a number 3 buzz :D and right now im self conscious of just seeing my face only but ill get used to it
I think it looks great, I have wanted to cut my hair like p!nk for so long and I'm finally going through with it and as a plus size woman everyone is always telling you not to I'm going to go through with it weather people like it or not
I wanna shave mine, I'm afraid it won't look right since I have a round face, but I shouldn't let that hold me back, people can make comments but ita my body and I should do what makes me happy:) you've definitely given me confidence
You look great and why not keep it if you love it?! I lost my hair to chemo in 2016 and have now had a page cut for a few years, but long for a buzz cut again. At 57 with a soft chin, I know it's not the most flattering (according to conventional wisdom), but I don't want to care! 😃 As you say, why do we hide behind hair?
That haircut suits your personality so much! You look not so much like your uncle but your dad when he was a teen and your grandmother when I first met her when she was about your age.
I use to have a very short pixie cut. About the same maybe a bit longer than yours, I want to buzz cut my hair, maybe a tad bit shorter than yours. My mom straight up says not to because it makes my face look fat
I really want to shave my head im 13 and im plus size and my hair is curly so if i dont brush it, it becomes a mess but my parents said no and my dad even said that it wont suit me because im so big, it upset me alot i wanna start fresh because my life hasn't started off the way i wanted it to.
Totally want to do that and I had the same kind of reactions you mentioned every time I talk about it. It’s my head but the idea that I’ll have to explain that to every single person I know is such a pain that I feel tired just thinking about it. Like I know I will have to wear more makeup and constantly prove that I didn’t have a mental breakdown…
You look beautiful! Earrings look wonderful with real short hair too. I'm 65 and fluffy. Hair stylists always tell me I should do layers in the front to hide the double shin and roundness. I really can't stand that style which has been around way too long. Now if only I could afford the frequent hair appts. that go along with short hair. 8>(
