I'm overwhelmed and wish i could respond to every single comment and message but know that I see them and I'm so thankful for everyone that's stuck around, it means the world to me. youtube is such a special platform and I'm happy to be back! alsoooo what do you guys want me see in the future?
I want to see videos about how you glowed up girl masha allah you look soo good. What you learned during your time away. and just vlogs the good old vlogs that we all love >3
I too want to vanish off of social media to travel the world, to live off a suit case, to heal, to read books, to learn a new language, to be less materialistic and to grow closer to Allah and myself. Alahumabarik ❤
What I took from this video, a more calmer, carefree Shahd. She’s enjoying the little moments in life. Espresso or instant, long or short hair, it’ll all work out. She’s connected to herself and her faith. Even more so now than ever before. Love your recommendations, may Allah bless you always in this life and even more so in the next ameen 🤍🥹
I told my daughter that she will be back one day and my daughter is the phone who texted me Shahd is back. I was watching my own daughter TH-cam video but exited quickly to see Shahd like who does that 😅?
My mental state is not your responsibly. However, your videos…your post always makes me feel refreshed, content, wanting to be present and just amazing. Not many people can do that so thank you.
What I get from this video is a new and improved Shahd who has embraced her heritage and is evolving into her most ideal self and is constantly getting better and better. I love this more calm and carefree version of you. So proud of you.
You are literally the coolest, most grounded person I know. It felt like such a sweet gift watching this video, thank you for being back. Having short hair will be weird at first but as a bald girl, I can tell you be prepared to feel so free and liberated, I'm sure you will love it. Also, hair is just hair, it will grow back.
The cutting off your hair, sooo relatable. Did same a couple of months back, it was so reliving in a shocking way cause it wasn’t something I’d ever have thought to do in a million years
8:11 I cut all my hair off while it was in super small braids in 2021 at like 4 am on a random weekday (it’s always chaotic! and the thought of having to take all those braids down on my own was a nightmare) and I felt so much relief. it felt like my hair had been holding all my stress and anxiety and getting rid of it felt so freeing. I’d tied my self esteem in my appearance to my hair for so long and cutting it all off (going from waist length to basically a low fade) made me appreciate myself and how I look a lot more. I got more comfortable in my own skin and was more okay with myself and my appearance than i had ever been in my life. I kept it short for over a year, it was so much easier to care for, it took hours off my hair routine, I spent a LOT less money on haircare and styling and got very minimalistic with my routine. I realized a lot of what I was doing for my hair before was a product of being easily influenced and general overconsumption. Short hair is also so much more conducive to a nomadic lifestyle lol, way fewer products and no tools necessary aside from a comb and a bonnet.
When I last watched ur videos I used to be inspired by how you moved out alone and had the cutest first apartment. I’d watch your videos and be SOOO inspired🥺 now a few years later i’m living that dream and moved to Dubai when i turned 24🥹 its been almost 2 years and I’m still grateful for you cuz u made younger me realise it is possible❤️ Thank you and I pray you’re happy and thriving habibti🫶🏾 P.s You have been SO missed you dont understand🥹
After 30 years I finally cut my hair and it was the way you described, I was in disbelief I finally did it but overjoyed and proud of myself that I finally did. I have no regrets and love my short hair. I feel lighter 😊 and I hope you continue to enjoy your new hair.
Such a beautiful video. You emit peacefulness and calmness. In this busy world of loud influencers trying to push their agendas onto whoever will hear, your video is refreshing. You are right, there is beauty in simplicity. I really believe there is no rush, everything will work out with God, I'm learning that more and more as I get older. Its lovely to see you evolving in a similar way💖
Never been so excited to see someone back. I’ve met Shahd in person and she is one of the most sweetest person ever. Your old videos were beyond beneficial to me. May Allah swt provide you with the greatness of this life and the hereafter. Allahuma Ameen
Shahd, you look so carefree and I’m here for it! I remember when on your TH-cam channel- right before you went on the years-long break- you were more mentally exhausted and struggling with depression. I’m glad you’ve found your peace. 💚
Just finished watching and thoroughly enjoyed how relaxing and easy this was to watch/listen to! Btw cutting your hair is such a liberating feeling! I didn’t regret it afterwards in fact it brought more excitement to me due to feeling like there’s “less consequences” of my reckless experimentations lol ie: dying it and bleaching with with no concern for the health of my hair bc I could cut it again 😭😭 Bask in the feeling sis I’m so happy you jumped that hurdle with yourself and didn’t let an emotional attachment to hair hold you back 🤍💫
we're so happy to have you back !! thank you for sharing these bits of your life with us 💗 I've been teaching myself Spanish and what you said about learning a language like a kid is sooo true!! making mistakes is the only way to get better and for the most part i think native/more fluent speakers are always happy to help. Also congrats on the hair cut!! Ive done it twice and it was so cathartic!!! Enjoy this new phase because its beautiful✨🍃
8:05 I cut my hair short after wanting to do so for a while too! I felt instant relief and joy and absolutellyyyy loved it! The only hurdle I faced was trying to style my hair under my hijab/inside cap so it wasn’t a curly puff underneath 🫠 sooo I stuck with twists. It was fun to see how the style grew out and watching it change overtime. Overall, Alhamdulilah loved 🩵✨
Well young lady, you have started your full circle journey; of embracing the essence that Allah has presented to you. While I am older than you, your previous videos inspired me. I moved across country to a place of no family or friends, but I like you am finding my peace. Finding one's peace allows us to see and embrace things differently. May Allah always be the light under your footsteps.
Of all the four times I’ve cut my hair off, it was due to an overwhelming sense of general suffocation, claustrophobia and helplessness. It was a way of feeling in control. And it always felt so freeing. Basically something was not right. Alhamdulillah things are getting better for me now. However, you sound very peaceful and calm and in control so I am happy for you! x
Cutting your own hair is so freeing 💇🏽♀️ last I cut my hair was in 2020 and now I love and care for my hair more than I did back then . Also welcome back ur content & chill vibes has been missed
Welcome back! Cutting off your hair is an exciting, liberating experience. I’ve done it a few times :) hair is hair. Also, yes to if it’s not broke, don’t fix it! I’ve learned to simplify my routines and stick with what works
As Salaamu Alaikum! Welcome back to the TH-cam world! What a beautiful video and yes, alhamdulillah in everything! 🙌🏽 congrats on your first big chop! As someone who’s cut off my hair a few times, I haven’t regretted it and that amazing lighter feeling lasts. Almost always, women cut their hair during big transitions and it symbolizes letting go of what doesn’t serve us to welcome the growth Allah is blessing us with! You may experience an awkward phase of it growing back - but just like growing pains, it’s worth it and it will pass! Praying your journey continues to be abundant and full of ease and joy! 💜
I really miss your content, but you seems so at peace and happy. As far as the hair…I did a big chop back in 2016. I could feel energy rush down my neck with the first cut and I started to hysterically laugh. It’s grown back twice as long as it was. So no regrets!
It’s so crazy bc I was just thinking about you! I was literally searching up your account and everything. I’m glad to see you back. I have watched this twice already❤️
Cutting my hair for the first time felt very liberating and now it's somewhat addictive. I've done it multiple times over the last decade and it's exhilarating each time.
I have always engaged with content on slow living but from no Muslim content creators, you have no idea how much joy this bring to my heart, seeing someone like me, in all aspects being so aligned with themselves and their spirituality ❤ Allahuma Barik
I only discovered you now and I feel so refreshed, please do more videos with a bit more time also. Sending you love, you truly a breath of fresh air 💓
My fav is back on TH-cam!! I cut my hair short for the first time almost two years ago, I cried a little lol because change is scary but no regrets, it felt so freeing.
I shaved all my hair off during quarantine, it was very freeing . The self luv and healing you will experience, will surpass all the regret you may or may not feel
SubhanAllah sis. Was near tears seeing how much I feel you have grown. You look so fresh, healed, and healthy. Ma Shaa Allah, tabarakallah. Love this new era for you sis ❤
Yayyy! Shahd is back, as for the haircut you might regret it a bit later if your hair hasn’t ever been that length before (speaking from experience) but over time you’ll grow to appreciate it. I would however recommend going to a hairstylist to shape up the cut if it’s really choppy. 😊
So lovely to see you’re back❤❤❤ If you do a q&a video, and don’t mind sharing - how did you fund living in all these countries? Is it just from influencer ads or did you have to work part time jobs in the countries 💞💞💞
I'm overwhelmed and wish i could respond to every single comment and message but know that I see them and I'm so thankful for everyone that's stuck around, it means the world to me. youtube is such a special platform and I'm happy to be back! alsoooo what do you guys want me see in the future?

A sit down talking video, girl how much I miss listening to you talk! Lessons learnt, honestly anything just more of you 💗
I'm so happy to have you back you were my biggest inspiration when I just started wearing a veil🩷🎀
I really miss Shai with Shahd, please bring that back
Like hearing from a friend you haven’t spoke to in forever. What a pleasant surprise! Alhumdulillah 🩷
I almost forgot her voice 😢
I too want to vanish off of social media to travel the world, to live off a suit case, to heal, to read books, to learn a new language, to be less materialistic and to grow closer to Allah and myself. Alahumabarik ❤
Girllll me too
Start with a book it’s cheaper 😂

Me too, I was telling my sis. I just called her 😂
I told my daughter that she will be back one day and my daughter is the phone who texted me Shahd is back.
I was watching my own daughter TH-cam video but exited quickly to see Shahd like who does that 😅?
