How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: Finally just said, even if I only have two weeks to do this, I'm just gonna do it and see what I can see on the way. Really worth it and I'll def go again with more time and money!!! Read how I did it…
It made me
happy and insightful
How I did it: I became more of a slacker haha. I realized that I could actually get more out of the books I chose for myself to read than books my professors choose. So I started reading sparknotes or just skimming class books and taking more time to read what I wanted. I also found new times to fit in reading, like on break at work, on the bus, waiting before classes, right before I went to bed. It's surprising how much you can… Read how I did it…
It made me
How I did it: I taught myself. I'm an adrenaline junkie, so I didn't get professional instruction. I was at these cliffs one day with my friend, and I was like, dude, I'm going to climb this cliff. It was scary but when I made it to the top I had never felt better about myself! Now I climb all the time! Read how I did it…

so i’ve wanted to cut my own hair for a while and i realized last night that my hair had gotten WAY too long for my liking, so i grabbed my scissors and got down to business. when i washed my hair, i put a whole bunch of conditioner in it and only rinsed a little bit of it out (since i have really wavy/curly hair). then i combed it out straight and cut it while it was still wet. first, i cut about three inches off all around by parting my hair in the middle and bringing the two sides forward. then i added layers by flipping my hair upside down, then twisting my hair one direction and cutting straight across, then twisting it the other direction and doing the same. i found those instructions on a website and it worked really well.
the only thing i have to go back and fix tonight after work is that i dont want as much of a length difference between my layers and the overall length, so i’m going to go around and take about another inch or two off the bottom. also, i’m going to add some framing in the front, by adding in some progressive layers from the shortest to where my hair gets long, so the front doesn’t look as choppy.
i’m sooo happy with my new haircut! i can’t believe i used to pay $40 every time i had to get this done and i was never as happy with the results!
i would suggest to do what i did: cut your hair a safe length, style as usual the next day, then walk around for a day looking in the mirror, asking people’s opinions, trying to style it different ways, then you’ll know if there’s anything you want to change and you can adjust your cut again that night!
