bang bang

I hate cutting my hair. I've gone to numerous salons ~ low end to high end, and I've never been thrilled with the results. But, sometimes I do want a change. Like, lately I always wonder how I would look with the Asian girl straight across bangs. So I bought some clip on-bangs on ebay (http://myworld.ebay.com/cosplaylvhui268/)!

The pros:

*holds the shape (requires no styling)

*temporary, don't have to cut own hair (duh)

*has the right "thickness" so the wind won't blow them all the the side

*cheap, like $6

The cons:

*takes time to place them in correctly

*color match. I bought black bangs, but since my black dye is fading my hair is a bit brown, so doesn't match quite right.

I literally took about 45 seconds to place these in my hair. Hence, you can see the harsh line where the bangs end. I've satisfied my curiosity. These style bangs make me look really young, so I had to thicken my eyeliner so as not to look like a high schooler. And, I felt like a character in Battle Royale (check it out), which is an AMAZING movie that you must watch if you haven't yet!

For comparison, the exact same makeup etc just no bangs:

Take the hair that would normally be your bangs, and bobby pin to the side. The clip on bangs will clip right over these.

The bangs also made me feel like an evil child killer person creature thingy (think Ringu), so I threw in this "I'm going to murder you with my evil glare" pic. I frighten myself sometimes:

I have an extra set of bangs if anyone wants. It's black colored. Hmm I guess I'll make into a little contest? If you would like these bangs, please comment and put a link to a picture of someone who makes you want to get bangs. Don't post on your blog either please.. I don't want random strangers haha. Just my blog readers :) Ends midnight, 4/8/10, California time. I'll put an obvious example:

Katie Holmes. Ugh she's gorgeous! And I want colored eyes like her!!!!!! And her nose!! But I don't want her husband hahaha..

I hope this post was helpful to anyone considering buying these!

Rock Star Contest entry - popchampagne

Pop Champagne is having a Rock Star contest, and I was so inspired by her own rockstar look that I decided to enter ^_^ The rules are to do a makeup look (thank goodness not hair, b/c I don't have blonde hair!) My inspiration for the look is Ayumi Hamasaki. I have loved her for many years, and even with all these new musicians on the scene, Ayumi will always have a special place in my heart. I really think she contributed so much to the whole "hime gyaru" generation, and she started so many trends.
