- Do you like my hair?
- No. - [Blonde Female] Why?
- It's like a weird, dumb hair.
(upbeat rock music)
- I have never, ever, ever had hair
shorter than my shoulders.
- I just want short hair that's super easy.
Something that, if I cut my hair like this,
I can just go like this, and this, and then like
that and then I'll be done.
- I've always been slightly self-conscious that I have
a round face.
So, I've been afraid that shor hair
will make me look really young.
- If I could pull it off, I would love it.
(upbeat rock music)
- Oh, wow.
Oh, wow!
- Oh my God.
This is amazing.
- Oh my God.
- I feel like I kind of look like my mom.
- I don't look like my mom.
- I thought I would feel a little bit more boyish,
but I feel more womanly.
- I'm cute.
- This looks great.
I'm very ready for this week.
We're here to see how my co-workers react
for the first time to this.
- You look so good.
- Wait was is this?
People get made over into Kardashians.
- [Voiceover] Are you thinking about having kids next?
- [Candace] Should I cut my hair this short?
- No.
- Hey you guys.
- Hey.
Do you like my new look?
- I didn't even notice.
- Oh my God, Caitlin.
Where's your hair?
(bleeping)
- I wanna say like a grandma.
- I have had a lot of people tell me I look like a mom.
Now, I can see by bedhead and it's way chiller.
- I felt this weird need to wear more makeup to
maintain my femininity.
- Nobody seems to think that this
might be out of character for me.
Apparently it's like oh yeah,
she would totally do something like that.
- Hi, mom.
- Did you put the wig on?
- No, it's my hair.
- You're such a liar.
- Do you like it?
- I've, I like the long better.
- There is a certain element of get up and go,
but I also had to
play with my bangs for a while.
- I took my wig off, okay.
- I'm about to take hip-hop class.
(hip-hop music)
- So, sweaty right not. - [Girl in Black] I don't know how.
- Yeah, I don't know how it stayed on.
- Why is being a mom a bad thing?
And, why do people freak out about that so much?
- I'll put it back on.
I look like a Beatle.
- I'm getting a little tired of it.
You want what you can't have and then you
kind of miss what you did have.
- I got the stomach virus last night.
I left my wig
at the office.
I can't do it, it's not for me.
- That little girl back there said,
"Are you a boy or a girl?"
- I know I said this morning that I missed my long hair,
but I do think a part of me would miss this short hair
to be honest.
- People were either you look like my mom,
or they said that I look very authoritative.
- I've always been kind of an old soul,
so the fact that people were telling me
that this made me look a little bit older,
I just, kind of like, yeah.
- I was expecting to feel this masculinity,
but I could also feel really feminine.
- The second they found out it was a wig,
suddenly they would express how much
they really didn't like it.
- My boyfriend hated it.
- I could totally see cutting it all off at some point.
- I don't think I'm gonna cut my hair
because I also think it's really fun
to do stuff with long hair.
- I don't think I could do it.
At least I know now when I get older
I could kinda pull off short hair.
- I feel like I'm a more confident person
an just that I could rock whatever I want to rock
and it doesn't really matter.
And, it doesn't really affect who I am.
- I just woke up in the middle of the night
and saw my wig and thought it was a person.
