I got my hair cut over the weekend and it's a completely new style. No one in my team noticed and when I made a joke they reacted and didn't say anything further.

I know I sound like a loser but it's annoying me and I think it's because my hair looks terrible. They would have noticed / had a discussion about it as we normally talk about "girly" things.

I feel terrible!

People just don't care about co-workers hairs..

Tbh it probably just doesn’t look that different. If it did and it looked bad, they’d overcompensate

Are you happy with the haircut? If you do, just enjoy it. 💫

My project partner and I got our haircuts on the same day. He’s an older man so it was noticeably trimmed up, as it is every couple of weeks/before big client visits. I’m a 30-something mom of two tiny kinds and mine was all blown out and styled compared to my normal tossed up in a ponytail look. Guess who got the “wow, nice haircut” comments? Don’t sweat it. If you like your hair, enjoy the fresh look and strut your stuff regardless of the comments.

Lol yep, sounds about right

I think people are afraid to comment on anything about looks nowadays.

Maybe reflect on why this bothers you so much. Do you need external validation? Do you worry about what other people think of you? Why is that…

This cannot be serious, do things for yourself and don’t look for outside validation. You’re there to work not for people to take time out to comment on your appearance.

You’re reading too much into it imo. Sounds like they either didn’t notice or don’t care. If they felt it was obviously bad I think they would have still commented “oh you got a haircut”

Either it’s not that different so they didn’t notice, they feel uncomfortable commenting on a coworkers looks (extremely reasonable and how I myself operate), or it does in fact look bad so they don’t want to say much. Personally, I would only tell someone at work their hair looked nice if we were actual friends, went out to lunch together, etc. Feel free to drop a pic and we’ll all let you know lol

Like someone said, people are too scared to c moment on how people look these days. With that being said, as a coworker i don’t care about your new hair style. I probably wouldn’t notice. That may sound mean but it’s the truth.
