I know folks who refuse to leave the house without mousing or gelling their hair.


And I know folks who think that stuff is nasty and want very clean hair.



Then I've seen granola hippies (though I don't know any personally) look like they just need to be shaved bald and deloused.




I'm currently LOVING the shit out of this:



You can apply it wet for a shiny affect, or dry for extreme bed-head mess.

How do you rock your hair on a normal day?

Going out?

I like the dry hair scenario. I usually straighten it, spray it with a heat protecting spray, and use hairspray (very lightly) if going out. Ive got these huge tongs that add proper waves, on rare occasions i use them. I love the Veronika Lake look on hair, (if only I could manage it) My ideal hair situation is, straight shiny hair that has movement and hardly any product -- this is my aim always. My hair is long.

But you're married now, no?

I mean, there's no point in dolling yourself up anymore, right?

When I had really short hair I loooooved:





It smells sooooo yummy and was perfect for making my hair all punked out.

When I had short layers (but still my usual bob shape) I'd use just the tiniest hint of bedhead pommade stuff to give the extra volume and bring out the layers.

Now that it's all mostly one length I just use a little bit of Biosilk silk therapy for shine:

Yes I'm married, doesn't mean I have to walk around looking like a truck driver. This look on the hair, can you do it for me?

i HAVE to put gunk in my hair because it's so thick and soft. if i don't put any kind of glop in it at all, then it gets all poufy and feathery, and i feel like i should be in a 70s sitcom. i've been trying to use less and less product in recent times, though. if i just put in enough to weight my hair down a bit, then it seems to fall into place.

oh, and right now i'm in between sumotech styling paste and american crew fiber goo. my hairstylist told me to try the citrus mint styling glop, but i don't like it.

oh lawd, that's genetics there. No hair product can do THAT.
They an come close. But not THAT.

You have a hairstylist?

He gets his hair done now by a friend of ours, Athelas.

what about them apples, dan?

It kinda depends on how I have my hair. I usually use some anti-frizz serum, whether my hair will be wavy or straight. I'm currently using this one:




I'll also use a little bit of pomade when I let my hair air dry. It helps to keep my wavy hair under control. That's about it. I don't use gel or mouse and I only use hairspray when I put my hair up.

It just seems so standard for you. Like too expected or whatever. I mean, you always march to the beat of your own drum. You are to The Ghey what Lisa Bonnet was to the Cosbys so to speak.


You have a stylist.

the demise of the org.....

I bet he's cute with foil in his hair.

Just cause it's illegal to put chemicals in your hair in Europe doesn't mean us less progressive Americans can't have a little fun

Imago said:

well, she IS a metalhead.

anyone who can help me grow out my hair without me wanting to shave it all off after 4 weeks should be called a miracle worker instead of a stylist. i'm like the helen keller of high maintenance hair.

Imago said:

You just need those fat rollers.

changes like the weather. Some days it's nothing, some just a little, some a whole lot.

I use these:

everyday:



for the rockabilly 'do I was sporting before the mohawk:



for when I keep it messed up:



and for more controlled styles:

I detect more than a hint of gayness in you.

when I have/had hair, I have to use stuff 'cause it's thick and likes to "poof" up...

I love this...


it will be a good long while before I need it again....

All that great hair, just gone!!!

I like him better this way.

He looks better as prison chic instead of whatever that other look he was aiming for.

roodboi said:

U look a little bit like that wrestler Batista when his hair is cut short.



Cute!!!

I just use some plain old gel, blow dry it out, curl it all up then use my favorite hairspray.
