Should I buzz my head?

Women: Have you shaved / buzzed your head? Are you glad you did it? If you have grown out your hair since, was the growing out period worth it?

I am a mid-30s queer woman. I am not super femme but I'm on the more femme side - I enjoy wearing makeup and don't generally wear masculine or androgynous clothing styles.

I have slightly longer than shoulder length hair, and I am tired of dealing with it. I hate having hair in my face so I wear it up 99% of the time. I don't spend significant time styling it, but it does take a little bit of time and effort to get it to look the way I like. I am considering getting a buzz cut so that I literally can't do anything with it and I don't have to deal with it. And so it will stay out of my face no matter what.

I'm hesitating partially because I don't think I'll want to have super short hair forever, and short-ish hair takes more effort to style than hair you can just put in a ponytail. I'm also worried that I'll hate how I look and immediately regret it.

I am mostly interested in hearing from people who identify as women about their experiences with shaved / buzzed heads, especially past college age.

I've read this related thread. It was helpful, especially in terms of logistics (hat in the winter, sunscreen in the summer!) but I'm more interested in personal perspectives and whether you have had regrets about shaving your head.
