    i just did my first side shave yesterday, after wanting to for years. i have eczema, so its always deterred me, but i finally said hell with it. red patches be damned, im shaving it! and im loving it!

  • @RaleighBecketGipsyPilot

    Might I make a suggestion? Shave it all the way around and trim the top to about chin level, angle from back to front. Man that would look epic.

    I just love how interesting human beings are. Dont try to analyze...just appreciate and respect differences. Life is so much more colorful that way. So she shaved 1 side of her hair, for those who dont like it..dont shave your hair.

  • @TheAbleeblee
    @TheAbleeblee Před 6 lety +144

    I've done the undercut thing twice, once on the side and once underneath. It's super fun while you have it (and want it) but oh my gosh growing it out is pure hell! I'm still growing out my underneath one 2 years after deciding I don't want it, and I'll probably have to cut the rest of my hair to match it if I ever want it fully gone (which SUCKS). Think hard about shaving your hair, kids!

    • @muskettbliss4484
      @muskettbliss4484 Před 5 lety +13

      The same with my side cut( It's growing out for two years now and it still looks gross!

    • @MYMusicMYLove
      @MYMusicMYLove Před 4 lety +4

      Same! It's so annoying growing it out. it's a great cut but I got bored after about a year.

    • @coolbeanz1683
      @coolbeanz1683 Před 4 lety +7

      Im getting a side cut tomorrow because
      1. I always keep my hair to the side
      2. I love the style
      3. Ive never cut my hair before and i want to try something new
      4. My mom has a side cut and she looks great
      5. Easier hair maintenance
      Sooo um yea

    • @OK-mh2cr
      @OK-mh2cr Před 4 lety +3

      The grow out process sucks so bad. I shaved a side cut years ago when the rest of my hair was down to my hips and after the side grew into that weird almost bob cut length and the rest of my hair was like 2ft longer i regretted growing it out so bad. I waited til my side cut grew a little longer than chin length and cut all my hair to the same length

    • @elektras6325
      @elektras6325 Před 4 lety +2

      Can’t you just wear hair extensions while growing it out?
      I’ve never worn hair extensions ( I have thick long hair) so please excuse me if that was a bad suggestion.
      I LOVE the undercuts and side cuts look a lot. Wish I was brave enough to try it.

  • @cristinairizarrysantiago4235

    I totally understand where you're coming from when it comes to the cultural importance that can be placed on hair. Being a Latina, hair has also had a lot of value. I have always tried new things with my hair, but about 2 years ago I shaved half my head as well. I felt so visible and powerful. Still have the hair style today. I love it.

    I shaved the side of my head two years ago, it is a big commitment but hair grows back and it's easy to cover up if you need. I love mine and I'm so glad I did it, even if my ear gets cold in winter lol

  • @laulau2238
    @laulau2238 Před 6 lety +3

    Your hair was so thick and healthy from the beginning that I think really helps pulling off the shaved half. Honestly, this just makes you look so much more interesting and in my opinion suits you so much better. This is going to sound so weird but I love you ears they are so cute😭

  • @isabellerobison4520
    @isabellerobison4520 Před 6 lety +1

    Could you guys make a video about what it’s like growing out shaved hair? Like an undercut/ sidecut/ fully buzzed look? How long does it take to grow out? What does it look like as its growing out? Is it annoying? Is it worth shaving?

  • @xoxoxoxo4483
    @xoxoxoxo4483 Před 2 lety

    Very cool! I have toyed around with this hair cut. I have thin, 3C curly, widely spaced hair, so I need all the volume I can get. Plus my hair is so delicate. My hair breaks more when layered, so the more hair on my head, the less tension leading to breakage. So I hold on to what I've got. But I think it would be cool to work with my curly hair as it grows out; like I took a tiny curling iron to it to get finger waves. 🤔...is Meghal's hair naturally curly? I thought I was watching a video of someone mixed with naturally curly hair that was flat-ironed.
