Cutting your hair short is super liberating, especially as a plus size person. The last time I cut my hair short, I couldn’t find any photos of what short hair styes look like on a plus size babe! So to fill in the gap, I made this guide linking to some short-haired hotties to inspired you.

Here’s the ultimate guide for short hair styles for plus size babes!

Jes Baker aka The Militant Baker is one of the most well-known fat activists, and has been rocking a short haircut for a while now. Her lust for life and not giving a fuck is inspiring, as is her cute hairstyle!

If you need some makeup and fashion ideas in addition to hair inspiration, Jazzmyne is the one. Honestly even if you don’t want a short haircut, you should probably hit that follow button!

 

 Shoog

Sometimes I look back on my life and I’m seriously boggled. My childhood was fraught w multiple different anxiety-induced phobias that, at an early age, set me apart from my family as the freak. My teenage years were a time of deep friendless depression- in and out of psych wards for suicidality. Hopelessness and dysphoria in high school had me blacking out and driving my car into Georgia getting so lost, having to call my mom from a Walmart payphone to help me. Shit was rough. I didn’t know my place in the world, and most of the time I didn’t think there was one. Bullied for being fat in high school I hid in the library at lunch and ate in secret. From then to now- so much happened. Maybe I’ll tell you the story some day- but today I’ll just let you know that I never ever thought I would be doing what I am doing in this moment- that my life would look like this and that I would be as confident and happy as I am. A lot of the changes that occurred are due to outside forces: FRIENDS. I finally got some. That’s not to say I don’t struggle- I’m still over here w p intense a.d.d., anxiety/ocd, obsessive thoughts and occasional overwhelming feelings of impending doom- but overall I have something I never thought I would have- love and compassion for myself. Its a game changer y’all, thanks for witnessing me in my growth.❤ #dashbutchconfessional
