Personal Narrative: My First Hair Cut
When I was fifteen, I had my first hair cut. I was too anxious because my parents didn't want me to have short hair. I was the only girl in my family so they all consider on me to be more feminine. I told the hairdresser, my situation and she said don't worry I will try my best not to cut much on your hair and I trust which I shouldn't! Unfortunately, she did cut it as much as she could. When I looked it in the mirror, I found myself so different and I didn't know how to show myself to my family and how their reaction will

    Personal background starts off small, it changes and grows over time into something big, it grows into an identity. Walking down the hallway at school, seeing someone standing alone, my first instinct is to make conversation, compliment, or even just smile at him or her. This instinct came from someone once telling me an act so small could turn a person's entire life around. As a kid, reading encyclopedias about random topics, consumed my time. Many days were spent coming home to find an injured wild animal in my dad's arms waiting to be saved. My dad would sit outside and draw animals, trees, and anything else he saw. Nothing excited me more than trying to draw whatever my dad drew, and as good as he did. Any assignment that was handed to…

    Growing up, most of the children I knew would go to church on Sunday’s, visit their grandparents’ house to bake cookies after school, and have milk and cereal for breakfast every morning. But I had never set foot inside of a religious building, couldn’t even speak the same language as my grandmothers, and ate congee with fermented soy beans like it was the most natural thing in the world. My little town where I’d grown up, made friends, and built memories was, to say the least, completely un-diverse.…

Through personal experience, I’ve noticed the increased acceptance of women having more hair among my generation compared to older generations.…

    As a child in middle school, I had my long hair cut short and was bullied for it. Some of my classmates said that I looked like a boy. Because of their harsh words, I began feeling insecure about my new haircut and not pretty. Ironically, the kids who said this about me were the “nice” and pretty kids everybody seemingly liked. A friend of mine reassured me about my new haircut and said that…

    I remember it like it was yesterday. Elementary school; second grade; Ms. Rubright’s class to be exact. We were being lined up like cattle going to the slaughterhouse, so we could go on a bathroom break in an orderly fashion. My teacher called on my table, and we stood up and walked over to the line being as quiet as church mice; since that was what was expected by our teacher. It almost seemed like a medieval form of punishment, the way they made us wait half a century before we could actually exit the classroom and use the restrooms. My friend, Matt, a chunky red-head who was always pushing his glasses up on his stubby nose, came to stand behind me after his table was called to line up. At the time I was happy to be standing in line to…
