hair adventures


Oh, hello there! The above is what I looked like at 9:00am this morning. I like to pretend that time of a morning doesn't exist, which explains why I look slightly more confused than usual. WHAT UP BED HAIR. But alas! That hair no longer exists. Hurray! Farewell, crappy old hair! Helloooo new hair!



OH WOW IT'S SO SHORT. Do you like it? I think I like it but it will take a bit of getting used to. I've been wanting to cut it really short for a while, mostly because I like the look of short hair but also because my hair was completely ruined from the amount of torment I put it through last year. Sorry, hair. I promise I will never feed you any bleach ever again. I'm also really looking forward to playing around with different makeup looks, as I think the colour of my hair will now help my makeup to stand out more. Weeeeee excitement etc.

Nothing else has been happening in my neck of the woods (what a silly expression, I don't even live in the woods!). Just uni and work stuff blahh blaahh. I move out next week though! So much joy. I'm a proper adult and stuff now. What have you cool cats been up to? Hope you've been doing super fun stuff. See you soooon, bye!

  2. I told you it would look amazing!
    I love it so much, I'm actually jealous that you can pull off a cropped cut like this.

    Did you dye it too?

  19. Oh wow, that is one fantastic haircut! So courageous of you to get rid of it all, I really wish I could pull off a pixie cut but I'm afraid it would make my face look chubbier than it already is. You on the other hand look stunning!

  20. MOWEEEE WOWWEEEEEE!!!!!!
    Can you say Guh-or-gee-uss?! I mean, I better stop because I could just hit on you all day with this hurcut, wifey. ♥ I really love how your lipstick stands out against your skin color and that lovely black, choppy hair. I think it's safe to say you're a hot stud.

  25. =X I'm going to get this hair ...one day. My boyfriends been trying to convince me to get short hair for a while (he likes short hair, odd, right?) but I'm so nervous I won't be able to have fun with it. This cut looks amazing though. I think it frames your face nicely :D

  39. Lady, that new hair cut is too brilliant for words! Serious WOW face here, it's such a sweet pixiecrop! You are going to looooveee being able to shave a good 15 minutes off getting-ready time - when I first lopped mine off I suddenly realised why guys generally take so much less time to get ready than girls do. BRILLIANT. BLOODY. HAIR! xx

  43. Woah! You look gorgeous! I LOVE it! :) So short wee brave one! :) And it was so worth it as now you look even better!! :) I think you are right, ever since I went back to black my make-up stands out more, plus darker hair with the palest skin looks pretty to me! So you are just win-win-winning! :) YAY!!! Good luck with all the move hassles and enjoy all the move funs! :) Zoë xxx
