[Anonymous No.6819433]

>>6819409
She certainly doesn't look like she's taking care of herself. I just checked her blog too and I guess she's a smoker? I started smoking when I was 14-15, and I immediately got that look that her skin has; sort of puffy, with the darkness underneath her eyes.

But it really is sad to see people get that way. It's not as glamorous a life as it seems. Though it is a lot of fun, and makes for great memories.

I love natural hair with lolita so I've been trying to grow my hair out. It's hit my collarbone and I'm not liking it at all! It's heavy and miserable to wear and it's misbehaving far more than when it was short.

How bad is it really to get wigs in natural colors instead? Is just to the collarbone an awkward length and I should stick it out a bit more? I'm kind of a tomboy and I've never really had long hair before...

I was really unsure about it, especially the length, but it is really great with good quality. It looks kinda shiny in the picture, but it was just normal jersey fabric. I got the M/L and it was a perfect fit. Guess it depends on what size you are.

Extremely fine hair in massive quantities, slightly wavy. I have at least an inch and a half thick ponytail at the tie, and I still have full bangs and face framing pieces. I wash it every three days and condition the ends, rinsing in cool water, only blot dry with the towel to prevent breakage, and rarely use heat styling.

It just feels like I attached weights to my scalp and it gets so weighed down at the top plastered to my skull unless I use a ton of mousse and blow dry with my head upside down. Volumizing shampoo makes it poofy and frizzy at the bottom, frizz tamer makes it a helmet.

Is an expectation of decent hair too much?

Leg charts always bother me. So much of it plays into genetics/lifestyle. You can have someone who is very thin and fit but because of squats and sports they have bigger thighs, or the other way around, someone who is chunkier but has thinner legs because of strange fat distribution.

[Jezebel !lfueK7pnvc No.6820241]

>>6820210
Basically you just have to lose weight over all and hope it comes off your thighs. Your genetics basically determines where your fat is deposited and which stores get burned away first through diet or exercise. If you're pear shaped like I am, it makes it much harder to lose weight from your legs than normal people and any weight loss from exercise, even those that supposedly target the legs, will probably burn the fat off of other areas and very little from your thighs. Just gotta keep working at it till your whole body is toned and then your thighs will inevitably get smaller.

[Anonymous No.6820251]

It's fairly easy to figure out based on the pattern of the chart, I figured at 177cm it would be:

You do realize those legs are shooped to hell? She probably does have a thigh gap and thin legs, but the fact that they're so disproportionate to the rest of her body, plus if you look at the knees in some pictures the, part where they connect to the thighs doesn't connect.

Honestly the only thing in the photo the could possibly help with better legs is the move where she is lying down. But the trick to that is when the leg that is stretched out (opposite to the one folded into your body), it can't touch the floor, hover it so your muscle tenses at trying to keep it elevated from the floor. The closer to the floor the leg is levelled to, the bigger strain if I remember correctly?
