2 years after my HT. I couldn’t live with my hair anymore. It took so much effort every morning to style it properly, but just one gust of wind or a bit of rain was enough to ruin it for the rest of the day. I also really disliked how it looked in photos. I'm 32, so I still felt too young for this.
