Since I’ve found a way (so far! *crosses fingers*) to control the sebhorric dermatitis on my scalp, I’m going to grow my hair back out. When it gets long enough, I’m going to try something I’ve always wanted to do; Bettie Bangs. 😀 I love Bettie Page and her trademark bangs. I always wanted that style but don’t know any hairstylist who knew how to cut them, nor did I know how to cut my own hair. It worries me that my hair is so baby-fine and curly…I’m sure that second part could be tamed by a flat iron. My hair used to be really thick and coarse and not as curly, but thyroid illness and PCOS changed the texture of my hair and kind of thinned it out as well. I’m looking into hair growth treatments, be it oils, capsules, chews, whatever. I wish the texture would go back to how it was in my 20s but I don’t suppose that will happen. I’m just hoping Bettie bangs are achievable with very fine hair. I want those bangs with a goth undercut. I don’t know if I’ll be able to find a hairstylist who can do this or if I’ll have to try myself. I used clippers on myself before cutting my death hawk but that’s about it. I have little hand-eye coordination lol. I’m also scared of hot tools because of that lack of coordination, I ALWAYS burn my fingers. I don’t know how long it will take to grow my hair to a length that I can cut them…maybe below the chin. I think Bettie bangs would look okay at that length, not quite how I’d prefer, there would be a lot of growing out left to do. I’m just impatient. 😅
I watched a bunch of tutorials tonight on how to cut them, so I think I have a pretty good idea. Might need someone’s help.
I really thought I was going to be stuck with buzzed hair forever haha. It’s not “me” and there’s no point in bleaching or dying it as it grows out pretty fast and I’d just have to buzz it again. Glad I got that sorted out.
