Joyce's new hair cut


So jealous...Joyce got the hair cut that I wanted but could not get because I have to grow mine out for my friend's Abby's wedding in June..but after I am so going to get a new hair dew.

Funny, how when a girl friend has a new hair cut then like all her friends start to reassess their own hair if whether or not they need to shed those long locks or to just add some sexy swept bangs....It is as if everyone wants what the other person has...ha perhaps its just human nature to want what others have because people view those things as much more attractive or perhaps it really is about us being a society of consumers always wanting something new and something prettier to just make oneself seem more modern and up to date with the changing fashion and time. It is not new to see all women and some men question about their self image and have low self-esteem because people are always measuring themselves to others standards..perhaps one day people will just wake up and say "I love the way that I am and I would not change a thing." I wonder when that will happen because everyone wants to just self improve themselves...but is it really, is it for themselves or is it just for society?

Which also jogs my brain, why are people so indecisive about decisions...especially women in particular. Funny how women always ask their friends for in put about what is the best way to wear a dress, put on make up or what kind of hair style to get where most guys know what they want to where in the morning when they wake up. Perhaps it could be explained with how society has preserved the notion that women are suppose to be dependent on others, which includes emotions and beauty because most women look and dress based on what is the new trend or what their significant other thinks is attractive, so in a way women depend on others to affirm their self image worth or value. Women are also so dependent on others for emotional support and wanting to be a purpose in peoples lives, where men in the other hand seem to be so independent and want to be so strong. Although women have won the equal rights to work in the same place as men and vote they still have not become fully independent beings because society still mandates that women should still be fragile, graceful, and dependent on others. Perhaps society has made it impossible for gender roles to change because of the traditionalists ideals and values.
