I've always wanted red hair actually.

Deal, let's swap.
I found a new pic of my current hair hate/crush where that hair looks just particularly BRUTAL (and also, more crucially, more messy than normal, so it would look more like the hair upon mine own head) and I keep reminding myself that winter is cold and I should wait until spring but my god I want that hair.
Even if I will not look like *that*, (not least because I don't wear anywhere near that amount of make-up, in fact, at all) I will just look like a potato with brutalist hair.

Justin Bieber.
Although for the record the Justin Bieber hairstyle is basically just "The Lesbian" so I'm not sure you can even say it's technically "his."

There, now you have hairpes.
It's kinda "Weimar Lesbian" meets "bedraggled goth dragged through a hedge backwards" which is much more achievable in my climate than the usual heavily ironed version.
(Not sure it would work in ginger, or without that much mascara on a daily basis.)
I AM SO ASHAMED.

LOL, 30 seconds after I posted it on Tumblr to get the image online, one of my friends reblogged it adding 'WHO EVER SAID THAT HAIR WAS OK" so I'm guessing that's shock, horror and a "no" all round.

I was trying to find the sketch comedy video where a cute boi tries a bunch of difft wigs at the hairstylist's and then says, "Oh what the hell, just give me the lesbian" and it's a haircut I've had 50 times, but in my search for "hairstyles 'the lesbian' " I came across a lot of awesome hair.

I know, I know, I know, and Goon Tie has told me 100 times it's time to claim that hairstyle back, but I am still ashamed.

I think basically you have to be impossibly tall and skeletally thin and have cheekbones like Gothic arches to carry that hairstyle off effectively.

I feel like my forehead is too large not to have bangs, plus, my hair is very thick, and having bangs reduces its volume. Do ppl with thin/thinner hair have the opposite problem?

found my new favorite styling product for mah curly hair
Paul Mitchell Twirl Around. Just a little bit emulsified between yr palms, smoothed through the hairs and scrunched a bit, air dry and BOOM big old fat curls that are super soft and not at all crunchy or stiff or gross feeling. I tend not to do much hair-drying unless I'm going out-out, so the airdry is a huge plus. Never really explored Paul Mitchell products before but this one is a good un
it's like a softer, everyday version of the TiGi Curls Rock ie huge fat curls but Curls Rock was like drag queen mousse, you could wear that shit in a hurricane and yr hair wouldn't move.

I am kinda incredulous. . .it would not have occurred to me to use dry shampoo for this purpose, but KUDOS (I think).
― mom tossed in kimchee (quincie), Friday, 3 April 2015 02:20 (nine years ago) link
ok can we talk abt dry shampoo styling etc
i am a new convert, and i like it! what is yr technique - spray all over crown / lift & spray roots only / spray part /etc
i have curly hair so cannot brush it out unless i want to look like a straw broom, so i just sorta rub/pat it in

― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 7 April 2015 18:04 (nine years ago) link
i try to spray on roots in as many general locations as i can, then tousle with fingers, then do whatever the thought of tousling my hair just made me lol -- it sounds so much more alluring than it is irl

When my hair was longer, I would do the same as LL. It made my hair HUGE, which was great. I wonder how ridiculous it would look with short hair...
― from batman to balloon dog (carl agatha), Tuesday, 7 April 2015 19:07 (nine years ago) link
yeah i just shake my fingers through it, never brush it.
also: i know i've repped for this before but blowpro dry shampoo is THE BEST. it is cornstarch-based i think, has an ingenious design that dispenses a really fine mist of powder when you squeeze the bottle, and best of all NO SCENT. it gives a bit of volume, not as much as aerosol ones, but the great thing is that it's buildable - you can use it several days in a row without buildup.
i totally splurged on oribe texturizing/beach spray pretty much only bc it smells really nice.

I use Frederic Fekkai Au Naturel Dry Shampoo which is non-aerosol and unscented. I may try blowpro dry shampoo--sounds similar and hopefully less $$$
― mom tossed in kimchee (quincie), Tuesday, 7 April 2015 21:36 (nine years ago) link
ehh it's still kind of pricey - about $20 - but a bottle lasts me a really long time, and i use it probably 3-4 x p/w minimum

if i didn't want to read about it and i don't want to comparison shop, can someone recommend one of those no-poo shampoos? i don't want to make it myself and i don't want to reek of vinegar. i just want to try it out because i think it might help my ailing hair.
― La Lechera, Thursday, 22 October 2015 22:06 (eight years ago) link
I have spent too much time at naturallycurly dot com, and the no-poo strategy of choice appears to be co-washing, which is just using a conditioner as though it were a shampoo (massaging it on your scalp as though you were sudsing, then rinsing out).
I prefer a no-sulfate (aka low-poo) myself--I like the Giovanni tea tree and 50/50 for that, also a sheamoisture low-poo that I'm currently using with a fruity kind of name.
― mom tossed in kimchee (quincie), Thursday, 22 October 2015 23:07 (eight years ago) link
