The Hair Salon
I've never been the kind of person who goes to the hair salon very often. When I have a special event, I usually do my hair at home. But also, since the pandemic, I've been cutting my own hair.
At first, I did it very badly, I cut too much or in a strange way many times. I still do it by following video tutorials. For many people, it's weird that I haven't been to a hair salon for almost five or six years. My husband and his friends think I'm strange because I like to cut my hair depending on the lunar phase, hahaha. I don't know why, but I really feel a difference; maybe it's just the placebo effect.
Also, I'm learning how to take care of and love my hair because I'm part of the curly team. It's difficult to look well-groomed without straightening my hair, but I’m learning to embrace it.
Thank you for reading!
La peluquería
Nunca he sido el tipo de persona que va muy a menudo a la peluquería. Cuando tengo un evento especial, normalmente me arreglo el cabello en casa. Además, desde la pandemia, he estado cortándome el cabello yo misma.
Al principio lo hacía muy mal: muchas veces cortaba demasiado o de una forma rara. Todavía lo hago siguiendo tutoriales en video. Para muchas personas, es extraño que no haya ido a un salón de belleza en casi cinco o seis años. Mi esposo y sus amigos piensan que soy rara porque me gusta cortarme el cabello según la fase lunar, jajaja. No sé por qué, pero de verdad siento una diferencia; quizás solo sea el efecto placebo.
También estoy aprendiendo a cuidar y amar mi cabello, porque soy parte del “equipo rizado”. Es difícil lucir arreglada sin alisar mi pelo, pero estoy aprendiendo a aceptarlo.
¡Gracias por leer!

I think British and American English has different expressions for "beauty salons." Also, it is interested how hair is *gendered.* Men go to BARBERS; women visit BEAUTICIANS.

At first, I did it very badly,. I cut too much or cut it in a strange way many times.
One writing rule is that a comma should not go between two complete sentences. (Don't worry, native speakers ignore this all the time in informal writing.)
This writing seems to be kind of informal, so let me suggest a casual way to say this. "I would just cut off too much or completely mess it up." Saying "would" to talk about the past tense implies that something happened repeatedly.
I still do it by following video tutorials.

I think "lunar phase" is something that an astronomer is more likely to say than someone who is talking about their hair. I want to help the writing match your casual tone :)

It's difficulthard to look well-groomed without straightening my hair, but I’m learning to embrace it.
If you want to sound casual, "hard" is better than "difficult."
Thank you for reading!
