What To Do With Cut Hair Spiritual

Okay, let's talk hair. Cut hair. We all do it. But what happens after the snip? Do you just…throw it away?

The Great Hair Disposal Debate

Some people are all about burying it. Apparently, it's good for the garden. I tried it once. Didn't notice a difference, but hey, maybe my tomatoes are just naturally grumpy.

Others swear by birds. "Line their nests!" they cry. Sounds lovely, very Snow White. Except I'm pretty sure the sparrows in my backyard are judging my split ends.

My Unpopular Opinion

Here's where things get controversial. I throw it away. Yep, straight into the trash.

I know, I know! Gasp! But honestly, I have enough things to worry about. Like whether or not my eyebrows are even. The spiritual journey of my dead hair is not high on the list.

Think about it. Dust to dust, right? So hair to...garbage? It's a cycle. A slightly less poetic cycle, but still.

Besides, I have a cat. If I left it out, she'd eat it. Then I'd have to explain to the vet why Mittens has a hairball made of *my* hair. Awkward.

The whole "hair is part of your energy" thing? Maybe. But I shed constantly. So, my energy is clearly all over the house anyway.

Rituals and Ramblings

I've heard about burning it. Sounds a bit… witchy? Not that there's anything wrong with being a witch! Just not really my vibe.

There are people who weave it into art. Now that's talent. I can barely braid, let alone create a masterpiece from my discarded follicles.

And don't even get me started on saving it for a wig someday. Unless you're Rapunzel, that sounds like a recipe for a very dusty, very creepy doll.

The Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow Philosophy

Look, I'm not saying you *should* throw your hair away. If you feel spiritually connected to your trimmings, go for it! Bury it, bird it, whatever floats your boat.

But for me? It's less stress. One less thing cluttering my mind (and my bathroom floor).

We live in a world obsessed with decluttering. Marie Kondo would probably approve. “Does this hair spark joy?” Nope. Straight to the bin!

Maybe my great-great-grandma is rolling in her grave. She probably saved *everything*. But, frankly, she's not the one dealing with my split ends.

Embrace Your Inner Hair-tualist (or Not)

Ultimately, it's your hair. Do what feels right. Just don't judge me for choosing convenience over…hair karma?

I'm pretty sure the universe has bigger things to worry about than my recycling habits when it comes to *dead* hair. Like, world peace, maybe? Or finally figuring out what happened to my other sock.

So next time you get a haircut, consider your options. Ponder the spiritual significance. Or, you know, just toss it and grab a latte. I won’t judge.

And if you *do* bury it, let me know if your tomatoes get super amazing. Maybe I'll reconsider. Maybe.

Because let's be honest, a good tomato is worth at least *thinking* about the afterlife of my split ends. Right?

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to sweep up. And maybe schedule another haircut. The cycle continues. The great hair disposal debate rages on!
