The transformative power of chopping it all off, and what it means.
have opted for a cathartic cut following the end of a relationship. Today, “breakup hair” is so common that “If she changes her hair after a breakup.. she’s gone forever Bruh.. new hair.. new man.. new life” has become a meme that’s been shared thousands of times.
Like, Felicity Porter, most women who find themselves in the salon are looking for a new beginning and way to take control of their lives. As Coco Chanel once said, “A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life." A drastic haircut is an obvious and somewhat easy way to tell the world you are ready to start over and when you’re feeling impulsive it’s a much quicker alternative to that “revenge body.
Even though those like The Weeknd and Justin Timberlake have changed up their signature hairstyle after a split, the cathartic cut is usually made by women. This is likely due to the fact that hair is so closely tied to femininity. As soon as Felicity reveals her new look to her friend, her first response is “Guys are going to hate it.”, “Cutting hair—and thus resisting traditional ideals of feminine beauty—is a classic way to gain distance from subordination.
While it makes sense that a fresh haircut can offer a much-needed confidence boost, the problem with breakup hair is that it doesn’t necessarily fix the emotional turmoil caused by the split.
