This wasn't the first time I'd cut my hair; it's not even the first time I cut my own bangs. But it is the first time I used any semblance of a technique, and now that I have it, no one will ever stop me from yelling about the power of cutting your own hair.
Matthews specializes in shaggy, lived-in cuts that evoke Cool Girls through the decades: Jane Birkin, Audrey Hepburn, Stevie Nicks, and Alexa Chung. Her social media feeds are filled with mullets and shags, bangs and French bobs and pixies.
The slice of the blade cutting through this thing that felt like such a symbol of my me-ness was intoxicating because I was doing something I wasn't supposed to do.
