A few weeks ago I permed my hair. The above photo depicts the result after a full nights sleep with no washing. I wanted a perm essentially for the volume and the messy, French, trying but not trying too hard look. Easy peasy right? I soon realised that perms require a whole lotta work. It dries out your hair like a mother frick fracker, and takes a good couple weeks to stop looking like the quintessential Annie. Today, it's a bit better. Curls have lessened, and an all around messiness ensues. (Are we really still talking about HAIR?!?! Yes, now get over it.)
When I was in my cool teens, I used to grow my hair super duper long...then in one huge arse snip, chop it all off. I've done this probably 3x now? Contemplated doing it again, but then there's a wedding blah blah blah. Instead, maybe I should pull a Nikki Minaj or a Gaga and get a wig?
Celebrity inspiration:
I have a love/hate relationship with all things Kardashian. I follow some of them (no, not Kim, I'm an anti-Kim like every other jealous girl) on Twitter but I do enjoy some of their spreads. Kim was doing a spread for Vogue Italia here.
Blogger inspiration:
Jane Alridge from Sea of Shoes looks frickin' awesome in one. And surprisingly really natural too?!
Okay, so it probably won't happen anytime soon, but nevertheless a great alternative to think about if you're ever in the mood for a change but can't get up the courage* to do it. Hair up there paired with some Zara trousers, Burberry trench, Balenciaga bag, Crockett & Jones men's velvet loafers, Alexander McQueen scarf.
*Like ME! in my 'I'm-so-cool-I'm-a-rocker' phase or 'I-want-to-be-Natalie-Imbruglia' phase.
