I'd be lying if I said I didn't know any girl who, upon ending a relationship, decided to undergo an extreme hair transformation, as depicted in Christie Young's 'The Rules of Cutting Off Your Hair.'
The incredibly witty and all too true illustrated guide goes through the motions of dealing with a bad breakup, complete with sobbing in front of trashy 90s romantic comedies, and of course the "born again" sensation brought on by a drastic haircut or dye job. While Christie's hilarious 'Rules' is less of a practical guide than it is a supportive shoulder to cry on, knowing that you're not alone in your post-breakup ritual is as much help as one could ask for. With a lot of laughs and a dose of self-deprecation, The Rules of Cutting Off Your Hair is sure to bring a smile to any face, especially one marked with the dried tears of a bad breakup.
