If you have hair that is big enough to have its own gravitational pull, then you can understand the bittersweet issues that can come with it. Having big hair problems aren't the worst things in the world, but when you experience them they can put a damper on your day (but like only for 10 minutes max).
Coming from a person who experiences these problems at least once a day, I would say that although having big hair can cause me to experience not-so-pleasant things other people do not, having these problems I would say kind of makes me feel special.
So without further ado, here are a few things people with big hair can relate to.
1. Wearing hats can be the biggest struggle
It can be really hard to find a hat big enough to fit on top of your hair. For me, it is the hardest thing to shop for. When I am able to find a hat big enough, I usually end up looking something like the photo above.
I love hat days, but whenever I do wear a hat it seems that I always forget that I'm wearing it. Trying to control my hair in order for it to fit under a hat does not always perfectly work. My hair usually just pushes the hat up. With my hat pushed up, I can't feel it on my head and I just forget that I am wearing it. Sometimes I also do this awkward thing where I look up to make sure my hat hasn't flown off or something.
2. It gets caught in everything
No matter how hard I try to bend low enough for my hair not to get caught in a tree branch, somehow I still end up with a leaf in my hair.
Instead of looking like this,
I look like this after getting my hair aggressively pulled by a tree branch.
3. It is a major view blocker
I'm the type of person who prefers to sit up front. I mostly do this as a way to stay awake and to be able to see easily, whether it's in class or on the bus. With the type of hair that I have, sitting in front isn't always great for the people sitting behind me. I have been able to block a few definitions on the chalkboard in class from the person sitting right behind me.
Having big hair will definitely cause you to experience certain things - but the same goes for people with long hair, short hair, thin hair or even no hair. We all will go through certain things because of what is or isn't on top of our heads. The most important thing is to see these "problems" as unique experiences and to continue rocking our looks!
