The wooden hairsticks I ordered arrived today! They're pretty plain but they get the job done and can be decorated when I have more time. I only need one for the basic bun I usually wear. I decided to take pictures before bed:
I had no idea the bun was so big*. My hair tapers like whoa thanks to my tendency to chop off bangs and undercut the back, and it feels a lot smaller when I'm putting it up. Looking at the pic, I am amazed yet again that one little wooden stick can hold it all up there like that. It's like I'm a warlock.
Also, I can see it's past due time to re-henna. The length now appears to be permanently red, but the roots have grown out a lot since April. I'm also done growing out the bleach damage to give the front a rest. It'll be time for more rainbow action in a week or two, depending on when I can get the bleach.
*Now now, it's no use giggling over the size or abnormal number of buns on a Luka. everyone in the house already did that when I went around showing it off, and I am now immune. Na-ha!

Is that a braid around the bun? Holy shit!
ReplyDeleteThe whole thing is one braid, coiled around and around. It came out looking kinda cool!
ReplyDeleteI used to do buns like that when my hair was long! ... only it took either one 2-pronged hair stick, or at least 2 regular hairsticks to get it to stay up.
ReplyDeleteMan I miss having red haiiir. What kind of henna do you use? It's a fabulous red.
