my job rules.  for example today they crimped my whole head of hair.  i got some funny looks on the way home and two people have already remarked on my likeness to a poodle but who cares.  i didn't even know my hair could do this!   also go see my guest post on dulcie's blog Human sea.  she does an awesome literary looks series and i couldn't resist doing my own version of what hadley hemingway would've worn.

Oh crimping...You're right...dream job.

Oh this brings me back to some disastrous moments in my style evolution (although, to my credit I never did the crimp this small). And somehow... it almost WORKS on you. That is a feat in itself!

Brilliant! I used to get my hair quite similar to this in primary school by plaiting it with loads of little plaits, leaving it overnight & voila! It was my favourite hairstyle back in the day (:

I swear that you could do anything with your hair, and it would still look good. I think it looks good...don't know why you got funny looks :]

Sage said...

I love crimping ... I feel like a child again when I crimp. I also think you resemble Alanis Morrisette somehow. (That was a compliment) :)

Irina said...

love this runwayish vibe of your big hair!

Unknown said...

I think if you put this in some sort of messy updo/ponytail it would be really awesome. But as it is now it's pretty cool too!

Nell said...

I like it. It looks far cooler that it ever did when I had it done when I was a kid!! x

this reminds me of middle school. anytime all my girlfriends got together in 6th grade, someone ended up with a head full of crazy crimped. probably with a hair wrap or 5 as well.
