I also began a project that I am telling myself will be an incredibly fun, creatively stimulating activity for the next 8 months: inventing ways to do my now-grievously short hair.
Observe:
The MULLET-HAWK:
This was invented while getting ready for church: I tried to see if my hair would Marilyn-Monroe it by doing it curly, but alas, there was no such babe looking back at me in the mirror. So I turned to my ever reliable bobby-pin arsenal, and began pinning pinning pinning. Voila:
Business in the Front:
And PARTY in the Back:
Party-in-the-back, mohawk style. See? Kind of a like a skunk. Anyway, it's FUNKY if nothing else, right? I felt proud of myself.
We'll see what other modifications I'm able to come up with. Maybe I can stick with the 50's Housewife thing and just keep trying to work out retro styles. They sure take a long time though.
Anyway, just to satisfy your curiosity, this is the boon that I'm now stuck with:
Alright, granted it's not this, but it's just not a great CUT-- like, it's pretty poorly shaped, and triangles at the bottom instead of rounding out... It's just sort of bleah. And let's be honest: THIS compared to the "before..." It's pretty clear, huh?
Oh well. As some of you have sweetly encouraged me, it will grow. And until then, there's always my go-to fix:
Or, maybe I'll just reinvent myself as a master stylist, and try to fix it myself...
Oh-- and p.s., my mentor teacher asked me to come up with some good ice-breakers/name-games for the first few days of class. (More inventing.) Any suggestions??
