    Default What's the SHORTEST you've ever had your hair? (Not counting being a baby ha)

    So I think it's really interesting to think about the range of hair we've all had!
    I've had pixie before myself, and I know I'm not the only one on this thread. I've even seen people talk about having shaved heads!
    And then on the other end of the spectrum, I've known people who have had long hair practically their whole lives who would never go short.
    So I'm curious, what's the shortest everyone's been?
    Sorry if my terminology for the poll isn't 100% on point, I'm still fairly new to all the lingo

    My shortest was a pixie back in the 80's....and not by choice

    My stylist (DH"s cousin) decided a 'Dorothy Hamel' wedge cut with the shaved nape would look good on me when for years she did a wispy pixie cut on me.

    Needless to say she got an earful,was not tipped,and it was almost 2 years before I stepped into a salon again;I grew my hair out to WL and trimmed my own bangs

    Pixie, or in the region of pixie, when I was about 10.

    It wasn't my choice.

    I voted chin length. It was more like shaggy overgrown ear length but not a pixie. It's the only time I've had actually short hair. I was 13 then, so it was 13 years ago, exactly half of my life ago.

    Shaved, well, not totally bald, but up to a few mm. If that counts. I was late teens/early twenties then, at university.

    I’ve had pixie cuts several times. Each time I have hated it, most of them were not by choice.

    Had those too. Earlier in life and later in life (puberty, teens and 20s). Growing those out was terrible, I remember that!

    Ugh, I can't imagine being forced to have my hair a certain way. Hair is such a personal thing. I'm glad I can trust my hairdresser. The idea of someone not listening and just cutting whatever they feel like sounds like a nightmare.
