Hairstory

So, I changed my hair again. As this is quite a frequent occurrence, I thought it would be fun to do a little hair history hairstory post looking back at the different hairstyles I've had over the four-and-a-half years or so that I've been writing this blog. Of course, I want this to be a bit of a laugh, and not an exercise in narcissism, so I've chosen as many not-so-flattering Facebook photos as possible. Enjoy my weird face (and hair)!

Wavy and chocolate brown, straight and purple-y brown, long brown extensions, crazy "natural" blonde, long bleached blonde, faux 1920s bob, blunt bleached bob, pastel pink bits, weird faded pink-y red, pink-y blonde (the crappy pink-red took forever to get out!), midlength and red, long red extensions, long orange extensions, short asymmetric orange...

My latest hair style...


I was getting more than a little fed up of the asymmetric cut, as it needed cutting too often to keep it looking non-crazy, so I just decided to have it all cut off short. I'm actually going to have a bit more taken off the length as without styling it looks a bit "mom hair" and I want it a bit more choppy and Agyness Deyn-y. I've also used an ash blonde dye on it to try and get it less orange-y, but it's a work in progress as you can see!

Oh, and I didn't pay for this hair cut. I decided after last time that I'd be happy to be a hair model again, and so went searching on Gumtree and ended up getting my hair cut by a lovely trainee called Harry at Mahogany hair in Mayfair. If anyone is a bit worried about being a hair model, don't be. They ask you what you want and the trainees are supervised every step of the way by a senior stylist. You aren't going to end up with half your head shaved or a mullet (unless that's the look you're after!) Even super posh salons need models for training (the ones I've been to were both really swanky!), so you can get a free haircut in a place where it would normally cost you £££! (But leaving a tip is a nice thing to do.)
