Nº 21: New Adventures

In the few months since I’ve updated, I’ve reached a few huge turning points in my life. Most significantly, I received a full fellowship to Wake Forest University’s MA program in English. So, it looks like my boyfriend and I will be moving to North Carolina around August! I’m looking forward to the new adventure, the proximity of the beach and the mountains, and my return to school.

In the meantime, I’m going to try to make the most of my time in Denton. I’ll miss this town.


Nº 20: Pastel Blue Hair

This round of dying turned out much more successfully than my last attempt! While I wanted it to be more grey-blue than sea-blue, I feel like I’m channeling Sailormoon’s Michiru with this hair color.

Worn with my Everlane blouse, which is perfect for portrait-style blog photos such as these, and in which, if you can’t tell, I basically live.

I used Bobby Pin Blog’s Pastel Hair posts as a guide, with my own slight variations. Below the cut, you can see the products I used for both this post and my previous one.

Nº 19: Happy blue year!

Last night, I decided to end 2012 and begin 2013 with a project I had been meaning to do for quite some time–dye my hair a pastel blue. After forcing my sister to help me with test strips, we finally found a color that was perfect. However, the application itself was messy and frustrating, and my hair came out pretty uneven. Still, I love the icy blue tint that reminds me of the cold weather for which I (and most Texans) have been longing.

I’m going to attempt a more successful coloring this weekend, and hopefully upload a tutorial with it!
