When it comes to the Kardashians and their ever-changing hairstyles, we just can't keep up. One minute we're basking in the lengths that were Kim Kardashian's flat mermaid waves and then the next, she has chopped it all off. It is their bread and butter, after all (not including any of their other many many fame-inducing successes). This time though, it's not a drastic haircut that we're talking about but, instead, a hypothetical one.
Sharing a post to her Instagram feed, the eldest of the sisters Kourtney posed one very divisive question to her fans. In the caption, she wrote: "Do I cut my hair again or do I grow it? (the day I cut it)". OK, yes, it's first-world problems – but it's also a dilemma most of us will have pondered before.
Now, to be fair to Kourt, changing up her hairstyle comes as second nature. I mean, with a glam squad at their every beck and call anything is possible. So, who can blame 'em – if I were a Kar-Jen (in another life, perhaps?), I'd certainly make use of their professional contacts.
Kourtney also shared a bunch of pictures to her IG Story showing off a few of her previous hairstyles. Hopefully the following inspo pics will help you make up your mind when answering Kourt's big question.
We've seen her locks just below shoulder length:
Everyone's clicking on...
Lengths upon lengths:
And even a green 'do:
But if you're still unsure which to pick, why not just take a look at the polls? Perhaps this will sway your judgement:
35% of people say to cut it, whereas 65% of people say to grow it. And in the comments section, fans continue to battle out their opinions:
One fan wrote: "Love the short look on ya!".
Another added: "Cut! Love the short hair on your 😍".
Whilst someone else put: "GROW IT PLEASEEEEE WE LOVE UR HAIR AT MEDIUM LENGTH OR LONG".
Another fan said: "Grow it long. Jasmine style again, bring it back.".
So, are you #TeamCut? Or #TeamGrow? I'm still undecided...
