I have this weird problem with my hair that is pretty hard to explain in text form without photo's but I will try:
At two sides on my forehead my hair keeps extending/growing which is visible when I let it grow too much, people say it often looks like a bruise. I used to get laughed at for that reason so I began to cut it off obsessively and as a consequence I rarely get remarks about it anymore. Most people don't notice it anymore but the problem is still there because I need to cut it off frequently so that people don't see it. If I let it grow the same problem will arise again.
It hurt my confidence pretty hard and my social skills/approach anxiety suffered a lot from it. It's hard for me to look in the mirror and it's still hard for me to do that in the gym because it's very visible when I look at the mirror and it looks ridiculous.
I don't know how to solve it and I have been having this problem for 2, 3 years... At one side I let it grow and now it's less visible but it's now like a hair "strip" that is segregated/seperated from the rest of my hair.
I know it probably sounds weird and you can't really understand it so I wonder if there are any hair specialists that I can send my photos to so they can advise me? I really want to get rid of it.
I know it sounds irrational but it would help me tremendously and it would remove a lot of approach anxiety problems. In the meantime, until the problem is solved I will try to "own it" like they say around these corners of the internet.
