anaistwinumm, this weekend i went to the exploratorium (long long bus ride), and to see the holy kiss at cafe du nord. it was a pretty good weekend overall, except for some annoyances that i shant get into.
i have nothing interesting to write about. either in the past i was blathering on uninterestingly, or my life is currently really boring. or i have changed. i just don't...know.
one topic i can speak of is my hair. it's past my shoulders. i have the urge to cut it after having shorter hair for so long. i can't tell if it's flattering but it seems other people think it is. so i guess i will keep growing it. i dunno, long hair seems so boring, at least on me. it's a pain in the ass so i just end up putting it up most of the time anyway, defeating the purpose. i have "fine but dense" hair as told to me once by a stylist, and therefore once it gets long, it loses body. not that it ever had much to begin with. my hair has the most volume when it's kinda short + volumizing product + a tad of crimping here and there. long, i just don't know.
i can't believe i just wrote that much about my hair.
i think i am going to bake cookies this weekend (which i haven't done since i was 10), which means i need to buy another cookie sheet. i need to do xmas shopping too. i wish i could just skip over the holidays this year. yep.

Date: 2008-12-10 05:04 am (UTC)I liked your hair short, but I like it long as well. You can rock it either way. Since you took a long time growing it out, see if you can't experiment with some styles while you have it.
I found a product that I'm going to give you a sample of (Phyto botanical Hair Relaxing Balm...which totally does not do what it sounds like it would do) that is pretty much weightless and helps to straighten hair while somehow providing volume. You have more hair than I do, but I think it's similar enough to mine that you'd have comparable results with the Phyto product. However, it isn't strong enough for death rock hair ;)
My hair is probably about the same length as yours right now, but I've been wearing it up for a year because it has no style. Call me crazy, but I actually grew it out specifically to be able to wear it up.
More hair talk: Do you use conditioner?
P.S. Let's get together sometime next week?

Date: 2008-12-10 07:00 pm (UTC)that stuff sounds nice! that's the prob, if i get volume, i lose shininess and softness. i just can't have both...except maybe with that stuff.
i guess i need to find more interesting ways to wear my hair up, and i wouldn't get so bored with it. i've been wearing it down the last few days. as long as i use this aveda volumizing stuff and blowdry it @ some point, it looks pretty good.
yes i use conditioner, but i have fine hair, so i try to go easy on it. when i had short hair i used none or very little, but now i feel like i have to.
and YES i miss you! i have been thinking about you and have been wanting to hang out :D

Conditioner is tricky. My hair gets dry, but all conditioners seem too heavy for my hair so I try to use moisturizing shampoos and then a styling product. So far it's worked out okay-ish. I just find that by the end of the day, if I've used conditioner, my hair looks like I didn't bother to wash it at all :( Ew.
