Mi sembrava di aver trovato il mio taglio quando mi sono presentata dal parrucchiere con in mano il numero di ELLE UK dove c'era sulla copertina Alexa Chung. La gioia non è durata molto: ho la sfortuna di avere tantissimi capelli, tutti fantasticamente ribelli e straordinariamente gonfi, ne-lisci-ne-ricci a vita, e questo non si cambia nè con phon nè con piastra (almeno non per più di sei-sette minuti). Il parrucchiere ha fatto miracoli scalandoli così tanto da toglierne praticamente la metà, però già un mese dopo si sono ripresentati, quei bastardi.
Sono arrivata alla conclusione che o mi faccio la frangetta dritta (per bilanciare e incorniciare) o li tengo raccolti SEMPRE. Decisione dura.
Ci sarebbe un'altra opportunità: la stiratura chimica. Qualcuna di voi l'ha mai provata?
I know you're all waiting impatiently for my Sunday Wishlist, but at this moment I'm enjoying a Sunday morning at my in-laws' house, where you can find everything except Paint.net, which makes the crafting of a moodboard somewhat difficult. So you'll have to wait for the wishlist until tonight. In the meantime, I wanted to talk to you about something that's been bothering me lots these days: my hair.
I thought I had found my soulmate-of-cuts when I showed up at my hairdresser's holding the issue of ELLE UK that had Alexa Chung on the cover. But the joy didn't last long: I'm unlucky enough to have lots of hair, all of it extraordinarily rebellious and fantastically poufy, neither-straight-nor-curly for life, and that can't be changed with any amount of blow-drying or straightening (at least not for more than seven minutes). My hairdresser worked miracles by thinning it out in lots of layers, but in less than a month, my bastard hair was back to its normal shape and form.
My conclusion thus far is: I either get straight bangs (to balance it all out and frame my face) or wear it up ALL the time. Tough decision.
There could be another option: that Brazilian chemical-straightening thing. Any of you ever try that?
HAIR INSPIRATION:
ah anch'io ho un momento di crisi con i miei capelli ultimamente!
ReplyDeletela stiratura chimica l'ho fatta molti anni fa (non che i miei capelli siano esageratamente mossi, ma sono tanti e gonfi). mi ci sono trovata bene all'inizio ma poi tocchi i tuoi capelli e sembrano di paglia...mai più!!
hehehe... Love how you call your hair bastard. :-) An I know what you mean, though I have a different problem. Still... There is like only 7 people in the world that have great hair, and 6 of them are famous.

Haha, sounds like we are hair-twins! But lots of hair is a good thing! I prefer my unmanagable mane to flat-lying spaghetti hair any day.
ReplyDeleteMin kompis permanentade håret rakt en gång och det höll verkligen!! Kommer ihåg att vi var ute i regnet och inte ens då blev det krulligt.
ReplyDeleteMy friend did the brazilian (Yasemin från min klass) and she loved it! Better than straightening perm because it won't last as long and be better for your hair. But just so you know, I wish I had my hair the way it used to be, thick and lovely but it has thinned out and I truly miss it! So, be careful with what you wish for :-)
