Okay, so, I’ve been wanting to switch up my hair for a while now. Long hair’s been my go-to, like, forever, but I was getting bored. I wanted something fresh, you know? But not, like, super short. That’s just not me. So I started looking around, scrolling through tons of pictures, and I kept seeing this “collarbone length” thing. It looked cool, not too short, not too long. Just right.

First, I went down a rabbit hole online, looking at all kinds of collarbone-length styles. There were so many! Straight, wavy, with bangs, without bangs… you name it. I was starting to get a good feel for what I liked.
Then came the hard part – actually going to the salon. I showed my stylist a bunch of pictures I’d saved. We talked about what would work for my face shape and hair type. She was super helpful, suggesting some layers to give it more volume and movement. I have an oval faces, so I was worried it would look weird, but she said it would be great. I trusted her, so I said, “Let’s do it!”
Here’s how the cut went down:
- Snip, snip, snip! She started by cutting off the length, getting it right to my collarbone. It felt so weird at first, seeing all that hair fall to the floor!
- Layering time. Then, she added those layers we talked about. This took some time, but it was worth it. It really made a difference in how the hair moved and fell.
- Fine-tuning. She checked everything, making sure it was even and that the layers blended well.
When she was done, I was shocked! In a good way, of course. It looked amazing! It’s so much lighter and bouncier. Plus, it’s super easy to style. I can wear it straight for a sleek look, or add some waves for something more fun. The styling part is way faster than before, too. I just rough-dry it and maybe add a little product. Done!
The Verdict

I’m totally loving my collarbone-length hair! It’s the perfect mix of stylish and practical. If you’re thinking about a change but don’t want to go too drastic, I definitely recommend it. Just make sure you talk to your stylist to find the best version for you. It’s such a versatile style, I think most people would love it!
