What It’s Like To Unveil Your New Haircut To Friends

New haircut reveals are big deals

A lot is hanging on this moment. You have, after all, spent a good amount of time researching the look you want; finding the right person to cut, color, and style that look; and it’s also tied to the event at which you unveil this new look — where it is, who will be there, what the weather will look like, and what else you may or may not be wearing.

The opinions of strangers matter less at this critical time than the opinion of friends or just anyone you might be trying to impress. And usually, we hear what we want to hear in this moment but what if we didn’t?

Because as a friend who witnesses a new haircut getting revealed — especially a drastic or dramatic new cut — it is one helluva rollercoaster of speculation, conjecture, anxiety, concern, jealousy, pride, relief, you name it.
