hi gabrielle from my expierience as a barber (70yrs old) the number of females who over the years who have walked into my barbershop and just asked me to take all there hair off made me realise from talking to them that doing the headshave/haircut thing is almost a release from the past a sort of new begining for them . if there decision is from trauma of family life or a break up from a relationship etc then they see it part of a re build of themselves starting from the outside . being a town barber and well known in the community some of the womens self help groups have contacted me and thanked for understanding some of these women who have come in for a haircut and make the process not to scary for them and it has enlitened me about many things the women deep down struggle with and how they cope.. . you look great with the new shaved haircut stay safe gabrielle. BARRY J
I won't EVER grow my hair out. I LOVE THE FREEDOM my shaved head brings me. You are BEAUTIFUL with or without hair. I understand your purpose for growing it out.
Yes. I shaved mine three times now. The first two times I grew it all the way back to shoulder length and kept it that way for a while then buzzed again. This third time, it's permanent I think. The freedom is just amazing. Far more room for more important aspects of my life.
The amount of times i've tried to find myself, only to discover it's not about finding, it's about remembering. Welcome back to the bald life, you are a strong beautiful woman and I have so much respect for you. Thank you for being the influence so many young girls need x
I will always SEE YOU in the buzz cut - It's so you. Remain lit, never fit - this is OUR equal purpose. I am proud of you ♥ much love from a buzzed headed soul sister. 🙏
Listen to me babygirl, auntie Paula(Butterfly) know what you are going through. This was me over and over. One day I woke up and said you know whomever doesn’t love me for me with my buzz cut shaved whatever if you cannot accept me for ME, thank you because you never loved me as a human being, as your sister no matter what race, as your best friend, as your lover, as your confidant etc., please I beg of thee leave me BE☝️it’s time a woman nor any person period whatever they want to be just accept people as they are love them like you’re suppose to. Love is kind. Love doesn’t hurt. But most of all....... LOVE IS BEAUTIFUL ♥️way to go sister you gave and will always rock that buzz cut like never before.
I happened to see this video, I’m a 60+ 1guard cut wearer, I am aging lol and often I think I should grow my hair out to cover lines on my forehead. I try but when I look in the mirror I don’t see me, I shave it and there I am! Good bad ugly whatever it’s me! Thank you for this video you brought tears and joy to my day🌸
Gabby, we miss you here on RU-vid, I will speak for myself, but, as part of your lady tribe, who also is bald by chose choice, I miss your interaction here on RU-vid. Iam being selfish, I know, but it was always so uplifting, hearing about your daily life, and connecting with you. I don't think Iam the only one who feels this way, I can't be. I know you have your other channel, but, if it's at all possible, I would really love it if it could be like it used to be. Forgive me if Iam being needy, but there was such a nice connection, where we gathered, and shared. Thank you for all you have done, we love you❤blessings
I really needed this video. I have been struggling with having short hair, even though I love it. I am consistently weighed down by thoughts of how society and the other gender perceived me. Most likely because “social norms” are beaten into our brain and my own Mom telling me that “I looked like a guy” when I had my hair super short. You look so happy. Thank you for making this. Your videos helped inspire me to shave my head two years ago. Thank you!
You are a beautiful Queen! I love the buzz cut on you! I cut my hair over ten years ago after losing 85 pounds and I never turned back. The liberty and freedom that I experience make it so difficult to return. Keep Shining!
Gabby, I cried with you. What a journey you've come back from( Iam wiping away the tears in my eyes so I can keep on writing) as a new journey for you begins. Always evolving, always growing towards your real, healed, authentic self. The words you read, Iam sure you wrote, because they sounded like a bearing of your soul. Celebrate what you have discovered, dear one, you have worked so hard for it. You are glowing now, from the inside out, beautiful, from all you have been through, and through it all, you have never been alone❤ Blessings to you, and thank you so much for sharing your hearts treasure with us all, we love you❤
A lot of our self worth is tied up in our hair as women... 💔 I'm 49, and I've had more bad days because of hair than any other reason or circumstance in my life! I've done it all... I had a shaved head by choice for 7 years and now my hair is waist length. I don't know if it's important anymore... As I recover from Covid, the chore of this unwashed hair (for many days) feels like another heavy burden. You are so beautiful inside and out! ❤️❤️❤️
I saw one of your videos in July and I looked at myself for a long time in the mirror thinking about the things I was feeling and just allowing myself to feel those feelings, then I shaved my hair off and I cried the entire time, not because I was going to miss my hair but because I felt self worth for the first time after my divorce and being sober from alcohol. I want to say thank you for giving me confidence because we are all beautiful in and out, with hair or no hair. We are all worthy of love and to be absolutely free to be who we are.
Gabby you are so beautiful!! I just want to let you know you gave me a lot of inspiration and confidence through your videos before and after I shaved my head! 💗 I had no problem with your hair journey but I AM SO happy you decided to shave it off again. I too tried to grow mine out but I just couldn’t do it! I hope you love it 😊
You my friend look fabulous no matter.....BUT, I think you look womanly awesome with the shortie short look! Love it lady...you are a beauty inside and out. Cheers!
I’m so proud of you❤️ be yourself, never conform to society’s misguided , delusional standards of beauty . You are power, you are strength, you are beautiful, you are inspiration, you are women
Every time I’m going to let my hair grow, it gets to a certain length and I start cutting it again. I can’t stand to fuss with my thin hair in humid weather, so I say: b,b,bye unruly hair! ✂️🪒👍👏👏👏
That’s so funny...I had decided to grow my hair out and have been since my last shave on my birthday last December....this week I decided it wasn’t for me and today shaved my head again! I had stopped getting any RU-vid notifications but doing my hair made me think of you...so it’s so funny that you’d decided to shave again too!! It feels sooooooo good and soooo right!!!🤗
Gabby, I didn't get a notificaton for this video when it was published but OMG DO YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS??? I LOVE THE BUZZ CUT ON YOU!!! A few years ago when I discovered your channel, it was me seeing you that I decided to buzz my hair off and have no plans of looking back. You, My Dear ROCK!!! Have a GREAT evening and PLEASE COME BACK TO RU-vid WITH VIDEOS of you coloring, cutting your hair and a nice makeup look to go with it 😊 Sending these 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 from Cleveland, Ohio
Omg!It's been a while and I just was checking to see if you would finally do it✊🏻✨✨💗👑The queen is back. Beautiful poem too,I cried cause I could see so much positive energy coming from you ... I've been trying to grow out my own buzzcut since February and was doing well but frankly I'm looking at my old photos of my bald head and I miss it😭I think I felt more beautiful and feminine when I had hardly any hair.😅I'm hanging on by a thread,not to shave it.
I feel so empowered, brave, and so much more with my buzz cut. I'll never go back to previous lengths. I'm so glad that I donated 14 inches in January. My struggles with scaring alopecia can be kissed goodbye. Love you girl! You are gorgeous.
Hey girl! Hope all is well! Happy New Year! I ended up buzzing my hair more yesterday. It has been a year since I donated all my hair. Now it's the length up before you are bald. Lol! I absolutely LOVE it and can't wait to dye it a fun color! Take care!
literally i love you. you are amazing for whatever you do even if some peoples opinions are bad their opinions stay invalid. i appreciate you and i remember watching your videos a few years back of you giving yourself buzz cuts and i was so amazed by you and it makes me genuinely happy seeing you do that again please continue being you no matter what people say... unless they say good things haha! ILY
Yayyy!!!! You popped in my mind and I wanted to see the progress in your hair growth and I see this video. Needless to say I'm happy to see the buzz cut is back because you totally ROCK that!!! Now go blonde it and carry on beautiful!
Damn girl, you are so fu**ing strong and so fu**ing beautiful!!! You are an inspiration for so many people wich i (being a man) include myself... It was you who made me read about personal development and inner growth... Keep going girl, and remember, it's never about the destination, it is the journey... :)
This was a amazing video of truth I cried like a baby you are so true I buzzing my hair about 2 months ago and have never felt so free still struggle with remarks but this gives me strength and courage to be proud to be a wild
Yessss Sister! When I see a buzz cut I think of you! You inspired me to cut my hair. Even tho it is not a buzz cut but it is pretty darn close. Thank you for sharing. We all love you. ❤️
Thank you for being part of my inspiration for buzzing my own hair years ago. Been maybe 3 years now and I'm still loving it. Every once in awhile I think oh maybe I'll let it grow out but as soon as it starts to resemble a chia pet I buzz it again. I love the freedom it brings. So happy you are happy!
This video is awesome 💖 Also I am a buzzcut woman too! I had a buzzcut for 3 years, then grew it out for 1 1/2 years, until it was almost below my shoulders. Then I shaved it again last week and I don’t think I’ll grow it out ever again.
I too shaved my recently... Sometimes I love myself and other days I do not and ask myself why and other days I feel excuse my language bad ass and very confident. I actually had a compliment yesterday on how great I look with my head shaved and how bold I am and that helped my spirit so much. At the end of the day I keep reminding myself I am me no matter what because I struggle so much with trying to fit in but in reality all I gotta do is be me and I thank you for this video as it gives me courage to be myself.
whew.. i was getting worried for awhile.. but now im so happy to see you buzzed again.. i love my buzzcut.. been three years for me.. yes.. it is freedom!
you just look amazing and keep following your heart; whoever really loves you, should love you for who you are and what you truly feel and not just for some conformed appearance; otherwise they are just not worth your time. what a true beautiful video... those words needed to be said and are really inspirational... i feel you... sending tons of positive vibes, from another buzzed sister ;)
This is wonderful. Good for you. You are so beautiful and be brave enough to go with what is right for you, just makes that shine through even more. This is my third time shaving my head after growing to shoulder length both previous times. I finally feel free enough to choose to keep it shaved. I love it. I feel so me and I can focus on more important things. I highly doubt that any of us will reach the end of our lives, look back, and regret not fitting into other peoples ideas of what we should look like. It's a breakthrough - a little miracle, to see people coming to this realization fairly early in life. I wish I had gotten here sooner ❤
Wow I don't know what you're going thru. But man. I felt this in my spirit. Thank you. Confirmation to me. God is answering prayers. He's giving us instructions. God bless you love always.
you done so well to grow it but only u can decide what u want to do you def look amazing water you do with your hair I have old with my hair and have to shave it to stop myself so I feel you xxx
