I get bored easily, especially with my appearance. If you know me, then you know that I'm constantly talking about changing my hair. I have always been known by my long—in my opinion too long—hair. But I always get bored with it.

The conversation about my hair usually goes as follows:

"I want to cut my hair. What do you think?"
"No don't do it! Why would you cut your hair? People pay for that, you know."

Why would anyone cut their long hair? Here is why I made the big chop.

1. Long hair is sweaty.

Imagine wrapping a blanket around your shoulders, and leaving it there forever.

2. It's heavy.

Butt length hair is estimated to weigh about a pound when it's wet. Your head only weighs 8 pounds. You do the math.

3. It takes forever to brush.

Not to mention you get a bicep workout.

4. It tangles super easily.

Remember how it takes forever to brush?

5. You have to use so much product.

My serving size of conditioner with my long hair was about a handful. Now multiply that handful times seven days a week, that's a lot of conditioner.

6. It's expensive.

Hair products start to add up when you're using them so fast.

7. It gets caught in things.

8. It is always flat.

The weight of long hair pulls down (thanks, gravity) leaving you with flat hair no matter how hard you try otherwise.

9. Blowdry? Don't even think about it.

That is unless you have an hour to dry it.

10. Styling takes a million years.

Any girl with long hair has never said "let me quick just curl my hair."

11. Split ends.

It is estimated that it takes three to four years for hair to grow 16 inches from the roots. That being said, after four years of heat damage the ends are slightly terrifying.

12. No hairstyles.

Either it takes too much work or too much time, so you actually end up just wearing your hair down and natural every single day.

13. You find long hair everywhere.

It's one thing to have a piece of hair on your shirt, it's another to have a two foot strand swinging from your behind.

14. It overshines your outfit.

"Wait, let me see your shirt, move your hair."

15. The "Ombre Shine"

The top is shiny. The bottom is dull. I call this the "Ombre Shine" effect, except this ombre isn't trendy.

16. You break all of your hair ties.

17. Your arms hurt when you try putting it up.

Oh, you want a high messy bun? Hope you've got endurance.

18. It whips you in the face.

19. It whips other people in the face.

20. The "Hair Curtain" is never a cute look.

I don't want to look at someone who is 50 percent hair. Ew.

21. Dyeing it takes all day.

And it costs twice as much as dying shorter hair.

22. It takes approximately 10 years to dry naturally.

23. Neck problems.

24. The "long hair don't care" myth.

You do care, because maintaining long hair is not effortless. Trust me. So, if you're thinking about making the big chop like me, I say: do it.
