A Mini Chop is cutting two or more inches of hair off, and is so named after the larger, well-known Big Chop. Whether you have already had a Big Chop, or you’re still considering it, here are seven signs that the Mini Chop is for you.
1. Lack of volume
When we first
start our natural hair journeys, most of us create a goal to grow our
hair to lengths we never once dreamed possible. However, once we achieve
our hair length goal we quickly discover that it comes with a big
price- a reduction in volume.
Some curlies appreciate this
because they longed for the days when their hair tumbled down their
backs. However for the curlies longing for outrageously big hair your
enemies length and gravity will both conspire against you. If you crave
width instead of length, then when you book your next hair appointment
ask your stylist to cut rather than trim your hair to reduce its weight
and achieve more volume.
2. Aging Hair
Our ends are the oldest part of our hair strand and have endured everything from our overzealous use of styling tools to chemical treatments. As a result they are more prone to breakage, tangling and just don’t look as nice as the length of our hair.
If you’ve been growing your hair out for a while and have ends that are forever frizzy, and you’re tired of babying them then it is time to book your next hair appointment. Your hair will look and feel so much better after a good cut and you’ll probably shave a significant amount of time from your detangling and styling time.
