Oh, I forgot to show you guys that my hair is long enough to braid into two braids! Hooray!

I have missed so many things since I left to eat!

I used to have purple hair! I'll have to dig up a photo.

It was dark dark dark purple - almost black. I miss it!

That sounds really cool! I've never dyed my hair, but if I did a color that wasn't a natural color, it'd be purple because it goes with so many colors! The other day I saw this girl on TV and she had her hair dyed three colors. The top part was black (or dark brown), the middle part was a light brown, and the bottom was a blonde color. She had it curled and it was sooo pretty. I think it was one of the girls from a band called fifth harmony. I'd love to do something like that but I couldn't pull it off.

I used to have really long hair, but then I had the genius idea of cutting it short.
Ever since, I can't seem to keep my hair past my shoulders before I get annoyed.
I honestly miss my long hair, but I can't stand it anymore.

Fire; My hair grows really slow. It takes forever to grow out.
I'm conflicted when it comes to having long hair or not. [lol]

I cut mine suuuuper short before (well, super short for me XD lol) and I liked it, but I like long hair better just because I can do more with it and pull it into a ponytail without loose strands coming out and bugging me. Is your hair thick? Mine isn't all that thick so it may be why it grows out so fast. Then again, it's not super thin, so Idk. I think it's in my genes because my grandma's and brother's hair grows out really fast.

You needn't bother, Poet xD

Fireprincess, the company that makes those bags is the same kind of level as Cath Kidston, I'd say. Not designer like Gucci etc. But still kind of pricey, so cute though, so if the quality is there, worth it if you have the funds. Their items look to be excellent quality, one day I will find out. [insane]

I agree! They are absolutely adorable!! You're right, if it's good quality, it's worth it! I may look on eBay to see if I can find one [ninja] TELL ME WHEN YOU FIND OUT!!! I SHALL JOIN YOU!!! [shock][insane]

Especially since I have or had thick hair. Showering was a pain, not to mention how long it took to dry. e ue

So if you enjoy your long luscious locks, don't cut it super short! [lol]

I feel ya when it comes to showering and your hair drying. It's pretty hard to get all the shampoo out at times. Plus, so many tangles! DX

I'll keep it long for a while, I'm sure! Although I've definitely considered how I might look with a chin-length bob. :P It would be weird for me.

I used to get my hair cut in layers as well.

That's really short and daring, I'd think. ono I couldn't go that short, I don't think I have the face shape for it.

That's one thing I loved about long hair, all the style possibilities.
My hair is fairly thick, it's thinned out a bit now, but it used to be really thick.

I have to rinse and rinse and rinse again, before I feel like I have gotten all of the shampoo out. D; But with my shorter hair, it's easier for me to wash, and my arms don't tire out anymore. xD

jellysundae 07-25-2014 08:43 PM

Mags, that looks impossibly cute! And omg it's so thick, lol, one of your braids is thicker than all of mine in one. >< I hope you've got some cute/pretty bands to secure that with, ones with flowers on and so on. [yes]

steelmagghia 07-25-2014 08:49 PM

Awww, thank you! Yeah, I have really fine hair, but there's a LOT of it. I need to get some cuter bands. Cause now I want ones with flowers! Haha.

Thank you for the compliment! :D Yes!!! Anchors for the win!! *high fives back*

You are too kind!! [love] And I do, I use the Anastasia Brow Wiz pencil. Otherwise, my eyebrows are super sparse and they don't look good at all. I guess I've only been doing it for a little over a year now (which is sad since I'm 22) but yeah, I think it changes my look completely. And thank you!!

Your braids look so cool! One thing I am terrible at is braids... I just can't do them. [gonk]

I don't think I have the face shape either, honestly. My face is too round. I have chubby cheeks. XD

Me too! Well chubby cheeks anyway. I don't really know what my face shape really is to be honest. I just know it wouldn't suit short hair.

steelmagghia 07-25-2014 11:59 PM

Awww, thank you Sammi! I've always been pretty good at regular braids, but it's taken me a while to get really decent at French braids. My arms get SOOO SORE doing it!

Have you ever done the thing where you put your face up to a mirror and take a bar of soap and trace the outline of it? XD Supposedly that's how you find out your "face shape," but I've never taken the time to do it.

I bet they do get sore! My issue is I'm not patient. Haha. Since my hair is long, sometimes I'll try to do a Katniss braid... but that never works out either. [gonk]

steelmagghia 07-26-2014 01:12 AM

My sister does an Elsa type braid. She puts it in a low side ponytail and then braids it. SUPER CUTE!

Oh! I would love to be able to do that. Maybe I'll try to braid it for tomorrow, actually. I'll be moving boxes out of my old apartment so it'll be nice to have it out of my face. [yes]

steelmagghia 07-26-2014 01:28 AM

Yeah, and it's a lot less tiring on the arms that way. :D

Man, if I ever need someone to fill in my eyebrows, I'll make sure to call you! Isn't it funny how just a teeny bit of makeup can change how you look? Just by adding a bit of mascara I go from looking sick and tired, to how I look in my picture. I probably look sick and tired though because I usually am sick or tired. I babysit my 2 year old goddaughter for 10 hours every weekday, so I get little sleep and of she's sick, I get sick. Always.

Another benefit! Plus I've never known how to French braid actually. :(

Haha, absolutely! I'll be right over. 8D I usually only fill in my brows and put on a bit of eyeliner and mascara. It is really funny how drastic that little bit can change your look - also reminds me of a post I read on tumblr, saying "it's weird that drawing a black line on my eyelid gives me self-confidence" XD

Aww, I bet that is tiring. I used to babysit my little nephew a lot (before my cousin/her family moved away) and kids can be little germ carriers! Cute germ carriers, though. It was worth it when he snuggled up to me and said "Sammi, I love you." And then of course it was followed with "I have something for you. It is a booger. Do you want it?" [gonk]

So cute!! I could never get my hair to be braided when it was short.

I love having layers.
My younger cousin does amazing styles on my hair! For prom she made my hair into a bow with "ribbon" hair curls hanging down.
Oh I know! My hair comes out a big tangled mess every time I take a shower. It was much easier to wash my hair when it was shorter, but it took me a while to adjust to not using as much shampoo XD

steelmagghia 07-26-2014 02:01 AM

@fireprincess: Child care of any kind is a terribly good way to be sick all the time. That's one thing I'm not looking forward to about teaching. Even at the high school level they get me sick a lot.
And thank you!

@Sammi: French braids are definitely pretty hard.

Sammi 07-26-2014 02:06 AM

Fire, that bow style sounds so cute! I need to spend more time experimenting with cute styles. I know there's a lot on Pinterest.

I'm just kind of a dud when it comes to knowing how to style my hair in fun ways.


I should probably tackle French braids first. 8D

steelmagghia 07-26-2014 02:11 AM

I'm very much into utilitarian styles. Which is why French braids are so great. They stay in for ages!

CosmicFoxKitty 07-26-2014 02:18 AM

Sooo I keep my bangs in a braid/twist thing... I took it out anndddddd

So cute! Also, I love that camisole!

CosmicFoxKitty 07-26-2014 02:27 AM

I like it but I'd like to have my hair crimped (sp?) like that all over my hair. It would look cute I think....

I'm thinking about cutting my hair super short like I use to have it...
Like this or this I miss my red hair too.

You look super cute with your hair both ways c: But the little waviness going on in the first pic looks awesome! When I have my hair put up in some way, it just comes out looking weird afterward. [gonk]

steelmagghia 07-26-2014 02:33 AM

It you want all over crimping, do a lot of little braids all over. Or you can borrow my 90's crimping iron. I actually like your hair now better. It's so cute.

CosmicFoxKitty 07-26-2014 02:33 AM

It's the way that I style my hair. It's just weird. It's kind of funny, if you think about it. I'm good with hair and makeup but totally a tomboy XD
