I have kind of a hime cut going on but a little less goofy. I have about four distinct blunt step layers cut into my hair including the bangs and it takes a lot of the weight off and allows it to take on more shape and texture (my strands are very fine but dense)! When it's not styled it’s a little wavy. The cool thing about it is that you can pin or tie up the different layers and look almost like you have a shorter hairstyle.
My stylist did this as a gateway drug for me I think because what he really wants me to do is to chop it all off. He’s old school Vidal Sassoon trained so he loves a short architectural haircut and he’s probably right but I do love the romantic feminine look of longer hair… it’s time for me to see him again soon I think so I’ll have to decide. But shorter hair is definitely a great option to consider.

Saw a hair stylist yesterday to straighten out my mullet. Thought I was gonna normalize it in the interest of growing my hair out, but ended up with a close-cropped pixie and I LOVE IT! Even more fun given that it wasn’t what I expected going in.

I'll start cutting my own hair once I move to the city. Keep it long with short bangs: practice layering in the back, and feathering the slight part in my bangs. I'll have it combed and straight, malleable and tame.

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌

I’ve been thinking about how much of social media is centered around curating our self-image. When selfies first became popular, they were dismissed as vain and vapid—a critique often rooted in misogyny—but now, the way we craft our online selves feels more like creating monuments.
We try to signal our individuality, hoping to be seen and understood, but ironically, I think this widens the gap between how others perceive us and who we really are. Instead of fostering connection, it can invite projection and misinterpretation—preconceived notions, prefab labels, and stereotypes. Worse, individuality has become branded and commodified, reducing our identities to products for others to consume.
On most platforms, validation often comes from how well you can curate and present your image—selfies, aesthetic branding, and lifestyle content tend to dominate. High engagement is tied to visibility, not necessarily depth or substance. But I think spaces like PI.FYI show that there’s another way: where connection is built on shared ideas, tastes, and interests rather than surface-level content. It’s refreshing to be part of a community that values thoughts over optics.
By sharing so few images of myself, I’ve found that it gives others room to focus on my ideas and voice. When I do share an image, it feels intentional—something that contributes to the story I want to tell rather than defining it. Sharing less allows me to express who I am beyond appearance.
For women, especially, sharing less can be a radical act in a world where the default is to objectify ourselves. It resists the pressure to center appearance, focusing instead on what truly matters: our thoughts, voices, and authenticity. I’ve posted a handful of pictures of myself in 2,500 posts because I care more about showing who I am than how I look.
In trying to be seen, are we making it harder for others to truly know us? It’s a question worth considering.
