Why I Haven't Had a Haircut in Eight Years

Painful and very real. This was a common experience for me until I moved out of my parents' place. I'm still reluctant to go for a haircut even now, but I do every now and then to get rid of my split ends. I love the way you wrote this though; when I was much younger, there was such a painful difference between what I wanted to do and what I'd end up doing, and I think you captured that dissonance perfectly. Well done!

Yay for no more haircuts!! I found this very relatable; I've had kind of the afab trans version of this experience, with people telling me my short hair made me look like a boy (as if that were a negative thing) and asking for a short haircut and then having the hairdresser cut it in such a way that it would "still look feminine". Now I cut my own hair!

I really relate to this—thanks for making it!

I INSANELY relate to this. When I was 14, I had hair almost to my shoulders, the longest of all "boys", but before the end of the school year my parents forced me to cut it. I still remember that I asked the barber to cut it only a little.... I ended up practically bald. I had maybe one or two inches of hair on my head. I'm an adult now. I live on my own and I have never been to the hairdreser since. Thank you for making this game < 3
