Pixie cut and hair loss - 5/6 months out

So for a long time I had a goal of if/when I returned to my lowest ever adult weight, I would get a pixie cut again (which I had and loved the last time I was at that weight).

A few weeks ago I hit that goal (217) - woo hoo!! However, as I was going to book my appointment to cut off all my hair, I started worrying that with my hair being so much thinner a pixie cut would emphasize the places it’s thinned. When I comb my hair in certain ways, I feel like I can see the bald spots a bit. Otherwise it’s not noticeable to others - just less volume and thinner hair which I am aware of but no one else is.

Do we think a pixie might highlight the thinner spots, and I should just leave well enough alone since it looks okay now? Or should I go for it? Thoughts???

    I cut about a foot off of my hair two months ago. It’s the shortest it’s been in my adult life. I have all these short fly away baby hairs that are sticking out everywhere when my hair is in a ponytai

  • Thanks everyone!! Here’s another - it passed the shower and style it on my own test and everything!

You look adorable! I don't know what your hair looked like before, perhaps the thinning was exaggerated in your own mind, or perhaps the cut deemphasized it, but your hair looks really thick!

Absolutely adorable!! Very cute!
