I love Choco-nyan's signature hair style. I wish I could pull it off, but I don't have bangs, so I think it would look weird. I think about getting clip in bangs sometimes. Can anyone recommend good places to buy those? I go to beauty supply stores, but they never seem to have my hair color.

I really like the first hair style in OP, but I'm not really sure what's going on in the directions.

I really love the look of big brushed out waves (pic related). Any tips on how to get this look on already naturally wavy hair?

That wavy hairstyle can be achieved by braiding your hair while damp/wet, letting it dry, an taking them out. I think it's really pretty.

Smaller braids = tighter waves
Larger braids = looser waves

You'll have to experiment to see which you like best/what works for your hair. I've also seen tutorials that suggest using your flat iron on the braids at a low-medium setting before taking them out, but if you leave them overnight, it shouldn't be necessary. Don't forget to start at the scalp to get the waves throughout, too.

Holy shit I forgot how thin her hair is. How does it get THAT thin?

[Anonymous No.7100416]

She dyed it a lot before (like bleaching) so I'm guessing she just maybe fried it and it took out a lot of the thickness if that is even possible

it's not. not with what she did at least. through years of damage to the scalp/follicle through bleaching it's possible to lose hairs to the point where they stop growing. but that's not the case with Dakota. her hair is (was? i suppose was. idk what it's like now obviously) very healthy. no noticeable breakage or damage at all.
it's just thin.
there are other things she may do that could lead to it being so thin (cough eating disorder cough)

i have the same look of balding if you pick up my hair in layers, except my hair is black so it's 100x more noticeable. my hair is the way it is because of an eating disorder though. it never recovered. it still breaks off just as bad as then too, once you fuck your hair it can literally be fucked forever ~ woohoo
it wasn't much thicker before hand though.

I asked you for advice on how to get my hair lighter some weeks ago, since my hairdresser was against bleaching it (and you told me to go to a different hairdresser). Just wanted to let you know I got my hair bleached, everything is perfect, I love my hair, thanks for letting me know bleach would be okay. It's a 7... something right now and I love it.

In any case, even though the hairdresser put an ashy dye over it after, it's still a bit brassy. I got two toning conditioners (john frieda colour renew and lee stafford bleach blonde) to combat that. Will getting rid of the brassiness make my hair darker or did my hairdresser lie to me?

[Anonymous No.7107219]

>>7100419
Truth. A lot of it depends on your hair type. My actual strands are very fine and my hair is straight so as a whole my hair isn't very thick at all. Dakota's hair usually looks like she takes at least average care of it, it's just very fine.

As a kid I knew a girl whose hair was naturally only about half as thick as Dakota's. Now THAT was gross and unfortunate.

I tried this for a 1920s themed party and it actually worked out really well even with my thin as fuck asian hair. I cheated and used a ton of hairspray though. Should be good for classic and such.

I know that the thickness of your hair depends on its natural color/its chemical composition, but my hair turned brown naturally as I aged (like most blonde haired kids' does,) so do I have a naturally blonde or brown composition?

From step 3 to step 4 - where is she tucking her hair? Is she putting the longer part on top but underneath the part that's showing? What is she using (other than hair spray) to make it stay... I mean it'd just fall down if it wasn't pinned.

Can I get some good straight across bangs inspiration? I'm getting my hair cut on tuesday and I'm not quite sure about how I want the bangs. I know I want straight across and over my eyebrows, but the edges confuse me... I have an oval face and I'd like some false definition along the jaw line to bring my face more round. If that makes any sense. I like the look of full, thick bangs.

(dunno if this is a wig, but I like how thick the bangs are on Kyary)

the thicker the bangs, the further back on your crown the hair is pulled from. as far as face framing, make sure the sides fall below your chin, or your face will look even longer/ more oblong.

I think an anon mentioned in another thread that if you want thicker bangs, you basically start them farther back on your head.

getting rid of the brassiness shouldn't make it darker. i've never heard of that. those toning shampoos/conditioners literally just cover the red tones... if anything, i find it makes my hair brighter!!

The further back on your head you go, the thicker the bangs look.
If you want to frame your face with longer pieces, you'll look young as fuck. I went for the sleeker look.

You can do it anon. I admit, I fudged up my bangs pretty badly when I first started, but I was using bulky scissors and had never even cut wig bangs before. Luckily, bangs grow out fairly quickly so you can practice lots.

Oh god, this is the worst. I've been to tons of different hair-dressers because this type of thing has been my style for a few years, and they just never get it. At all. Since it's not like a """trendy""" kardashian style or whatever, stylists just don't give a fuck and are always like "oh hehe, you don't want anything covering up that sharp angled strong jawline, it's great!"

>actually, I do.

They always try to give me these weird razor-cut "edgy" layers when I show them a hime style. I only got it done right when I asked my friend (she's into kawaii desu shit), who doesn't do hair professionally or anything. IMO, if you can get closer to what you want from a random non-professional than a stylist you're paying, something is wrong. Every salon seems to take perverse pleasure in making me look like a drag queen.

[Anonymous No.7121957]

What kind of hairstyles can a fatty like me pull off? The last time I went to the salon I got full bangs again but I wasn't very happy as they would always have one spot show through, but my hair is thin and fine so there's not much else I can do about it.
I don't know whether I want bangs anymore since it's been difficult to maintain them and now they're at that annoying length of hitting my eyelashes and I can't even trust myself to trim them. I feel like there's so little I can do with my hair.

[Anonymous No.7121987]

>>7121957
Try growing your bangs out a bit more and get side-swept bangs. It's really cute and more casual than blunt bangs. I think a hairstyle that frames the face is nice if you have a big face and jaw, so don't just pull all your hair back into a ponytail.
