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 itās 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. Heās old school Vidal Sassoon trained so he loves a short architectural haircut and heās probably right but I do love the romantic feminine look of longer hairā¦ itās time for me to see him again soon I think so Iāll 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 wasnāt what I expected going in.

Can I get away with asking this without posting a pic? Some of you have seen what I look like. I try not to keep my face on here for long bc Iām a therapist and paranoid a client will find me.
Anyway, Iām constantly bored with my hair. Iāve been growing it out for the past few months but I only like how it looks when I pull it half up. I also have bangs that Iām never getting rid of unless I decide to ever buzz it, so take that into consideration.
Open to any and all ideas. I have an oval shaped face. My hair is fine with the teeniest bit of a wave. I donāt style it beyond drying my bangs and will never put much effort into styling it.

This is uncharacteristically raw and personal, even for me, and pretty heavy! I know many of you have seen me posting through it and I feel safe to talk about it openly now that Iāve safely landed at the start of my new life. Itās honestly even a little bit embarrassing but I think itās important to share.
Iāve never publicly mentioned it on here, but I have a husband; as of Friday, weād have been together for 11 years, and weāve been married for 3 years as of 2/22. I realize now that I wanted to explore what I looked like outside of my relationship with him because I had lost that. This is why PI.FYI has been so meaningful to me as a space to express myself and connect with peopleāto rediscover my voice.
I had been living a lie this entire time, to others but worst of all to myself. Heās been verbally and emotionally abusive, physically but without touching me, to the point that every day I spent with him I was in danger. Iāve been shrinking myself and walking on eggshells to avoid making him insecure and provoking his casual put-downs and fits of rage, while hanging on for dear life to the threads of good I could see.
Iāve wanted so badly to leave, more than anything, but I felt like there was no way out and that this was just something I would need to endure indefinitelyābut someone who is so very dear to me helped me see that I have wings to fly, not by acting as my savior but by reminding me of my own power. The emotional safety they built and the gentle care they showed me made me feel like I could open up to them. With their encouragement I was brave enough to tell the truth to my friends, my family, my boss, and they have received me with warm, loving and open arms and rallied to support and protect me. The financial andĀ logistical aspects were the most intimidating to me and itās going to be tough for a while but Iām going to be better than okay!
Now Iām opening up to you. This isnāt the only abuse Iāve suffered in my life, and my old therapist told me she believed it was my mission to share my strength and light with others to inspire them and show them that change is possible.
I hope that by sharing this, I can reach even just one person who is going through something similar and show that they are not alone, and they are not weak. People with certain backgrounds may be more vulnerable to abuse, but it can happen to anyone. It thrives in darkness, shame, and isolationāand breaking that silence is the first step toward freedom.
Leaving is the scariest thing I have ever done but I have so many angels around me, and I am endlessly grateful. Thank you for being here with me š

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 somebodyābe it a relative or one of my best friendsāwas 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 š
