10 Times People Took Charge With a Whole New Look

Source: cheyisabear on Reddit

The world around us is changing pretty rapidly. It can be pretty scary, pretty intimidating, but also – kind of exciting. There are a lot of things we as individuals can’t control, but there also things we can have a big impact on, and choices we can make for ourselves to embrace a change entirely for us. These can be big, like lifestyle shifts or a major commitment, but they can also be smaller, more symbolic changes that nonetheless bolster our confidence and help us think of today as a new chapter.

That’s the attitude celebrated by many on the subreddit r/Hair, where there’s a long tradition of people posting before and after transformation pictures of themselves trying out a new look, and a new feel. It’s pretty uplifting stuff to look through!

10. Decisions, decisions

9. DIY

To answer your question: way, way better than I ever could.

8. Long hair don’t care

6. Flowing locks

Look at those rosy cheeks!

5. Shave and a haircut

You’re pullin’ off a wide range!

4. Fire and ice

Mr. Steal Your Mrs. Claus.

3. Poppin’!

Turns out it’s actually not all that difficult being green.

2. Long story short

You could tell me these were two different people and I’d believe you.

1. Home of the shave

Whether you’re facing big changes, small changes, or anything in-between, remember that you’ve got the power to make decisions for yourself and your image – and that can feel pretty good!
