A quick Google search on why a woman can cut her hair has a long list of reasons. 

The most common is because a woman wants to open a new chapter in her life. While there might be some truth to this, others still argue that a woman’s reasons for shaving her hair are simply personal.

While shaving hair is considered a bold move, short hair acts as a confidence booster to many as well making it easy to stand out from the rest.

It goes without saying that short hair is easy to maintain compared to other hairstyles. It is an easy and quick fix. Who wants time-consuming hair anyway?
