have you cut your hair off as a form of rebellion/acting out? ie breakup hair? did you regret it after?
no bird breakup! just feeling the need to do something different, not sure if i'll regret it later.

Yes and I always loved it!!! I always did something drastic to end a monumental chapter in my life.
This was after breaking up with my boyfriend right before I met DH.

No, but I grew my hair out as a rebellion. My stepmom always had me cut my hair to chin length. When I started high school and moved in with my mom I grew it out. By the time
I was a senior it was at my waist.

So, I found out I was pregnant with LO#3 about four days after I turned 30. I was feeling very overwhelmed, so I chopped all my hair off. It is the shortest it has ever been in my life (it was a longer bob, but I normally have waist length hair!) and I love it! It felt good

I've always done something drastic to make an end a monumental chapter in my life -- new haircut or color, piercing, new wardrobe.. Whatever I feel fits me in the moment!

Crazy short & colored hair in high school.
I've donated my hair three times, going from super long to short. This was the last time 2008.

I've done it a few times, sometimes it was cathartic and sometimes I regretted it after!

I've chopped all my hair off to donate it 4 times but it didn't ever coincide with a big life change.

I've gone from bra strap length to pixie cut and everywhere in between, but never in response to anything. Hair grows - if you want to cut it, cut it!

Lol... My rebellious changes have always been tattoos. Although, I've done really drastic things to my hair over the years, I just have no pictures of any of it, unfortunately. Pictures weren't punk rock...

I just chopped my hair after our loss.... I had already had it on my mind to do so it wasn't really an emotional response but it was still a huge move for some a huge life circumstance.
I don't regret it at all!!

Yes, my ex husband always forbid me from cutting my hair short so as soon as soon as the divorce started I chopped it shorter than it'd ever been. Hated it!

Yes, within the first week of college I cut my hair short for the first time. My mom was beyond pissed, but she was 2.5 hours away by plane and couldn't do anything about it. Ha ha

Stressed out with wedding planning (2008) and I cut my hair a week before our wedding it was awesome

I chopped my hair off and had hot pink strips dyed after my miscarriage. I loved it. I'm just too cheap and lazy to maintain it.... otherwise I'd want to keep it that way forever.

It's being cut as I type. It's a tiny bit shorter than @runsyellowlites: , going shoulder length. I figure I won't regret that too much DH is not gonna be happy!

Yep! After every break up. And after our wedding, too. Always just seems like the right time.
@mrs. bird: I am sure it will look great!

@mrs. bird: oh you must post a pic! It'll be gorgeous!
I've never done it in that form, but just because I get bored

@mrs. bird: yay, go you! I cut my hair after breaking up with my high school ex (messy breakup) and it felt so good!

@mrs. bird: Love the hair! And so not an "awful fat" face! You are SO pretty! Your lips and eye brows are incredible!

Very pretty!
I never cut all my hair off after a breakup but I did drastically alter the color of it. My hairstylist always knew something was up when I'd come in and say I wanted to change the color since I'd been unwilling to change it every other time I went to see her.

Nothing will ever ever ever make me cut my hair but I do dye it (purple, green or blue) when I feel rebellious.
