Changing hair a lot

I am a girl who changes her hair a lot. I hadn’t been that kind of girl though, but now I am. I think that mood, artistry and life itself really informs my perspective on my personal self image and perception of beauty, so I’m always looking to appear differently or uniquely, or as a somewhat different version of myself. Hair to me, is the biggest tool and canvas in how to change one’s appearance - even more so than makeup. In 2019 there was a point where I bleached literally my entire scalp and eyebrows (as a lot of people are now doing in this present day)… My hair was in twists, and so I looked like this character from a cartoon or anime in a majestic way. Yassified Super Saiyan! I’d still been a highschooler then, and that was the most free I’d ever felt with my image up to that point. To me, that was a real testament to the power of hair. From that point on my life became a pipeline from wigs to eventually protective hairstyles and I lived for every second of it. I still do!

Hair dye changed my life

I’ve had my hair pink for a year, and I feel more like myself than ever. It makes me feel sexy and cool, but more than that it feels like the truest reflection of me :) I just got my dye touched up the other day, and having the color this vibrant is bringing me all the joy

Dyeing my hair on my own

I used to go to a professional when I had the Shizen hookup a few years ago. Now i’ve been off their roster for a while, so I learned to dye my hair on my own — i use bright copper permanent dye to touch up my roots and a manic panic potion on my ends to help keep my hair healthier. I wear gloves and sit at my desk and watch Pretty Little Liars while I do my hair. I got good at it and find it relaxing. I mastered the perfect hot cheeto color which fades out into a lovely gingery copper color. I decided i want to be a red head forever. Love, Fiona

the satisfaction of finding a solution

i have been coding for the past 3ish(?) hours trying to get my textboxes to align on a page the way i was imagining it. it was the most tedious thing i'd ever done - back and fourth, running the code and then checking the css file to see where i could fix stuff, trial and error and trial again. i'm surprised i didn't give up, but my brain wasn't gonna let me do anything else until i fixed it. and so i did. i adore web design because it's one of the most gratifying hobbies i've picked up - it's so easy to want to bash your head into the wall after the 43rd try, but it's fulfilling and so rewarding when you finally get it right.
