 :) HI GIRLS!!! So anyone who's read my posts knows I went through a break up recently. Looking at the positive of this, she never wanted me to A: get a lip piercing, a bellybutton piercing, peirce my ears a second time B: Get a tattoo, or C: change my hair style. IM GOING TO DO ALL OF THOSE XD I need help mainly on C. I have very dry, curly hair, but I kind of always wanted to have the scene hairstyle... several highlight colors on the end, straight/wavy, but I dont know how to do it without breaking the bank, and I dont know how to make dry curly hair like that  ??? I mean its not too dry anymore but enough that with a straightener my hair just looks zapped... Any help is very much appreciated!

Nice! I'm scene/emo myself and have no doubt you'll love a scene hairstyle.

Just keep in mind, tease tease tease! It takes a lot of teasing and you will need a teasing brush and hairspray. Mega hold hairspray the kind that won't let you down in a tornado.

A colour you may want to avoid is red, i mean bright red cause it runs out so quickly.

I had all purple hair before it was good, also I had all blue hair that is another colour that is hard to maintain but it's super awesomee.

You will need platinum blonde hair first prior to colouring if you want the best results, which is bright.
Do not bleach at home u will fry ur hair go to a salon.

If u have any questions or anything lemme know otay? :D

I think it's important to know in what condition your hair is and what you can do with it...  If it's dry, maybe bleaching or dying it a lighter color will just make it worse. You can dye it a darker color with a demi dye, it'll give some shine and they're better than permanent dyes as they don't damage the hair nearly as much.
If you wanna straighten, make sure to use heat protectant, I use John frieda's heat defeat and it works well :) there's also redken align 12 straightening lotion that helps make and keep the hair pretty straight. Also, make sure to use the lowest possible setting that can make your hair straight, sometimes we put a lot more heat on our hair than we need.
Anyways, I think it'd be nice if you went to a salon and asked a hair stylist their opinion on what would look good on you considering your hair type, then you can have a professional opinion to help make your decision :) but hair changes are the best,  they can completely change your mood and confidence... I still remember when I broke up with an ex a long time ago and I had this ridiculous long, curly hair that had a lot of volume on the sides, I looked kinda like bozo lol then I straightened it and got a haircut. Everyone complimented me on how good I looked and all that, and one day my ex saw me getting in school and he was just like  :o and I just walked past him with my best Gisele walk hahaha felt pretty good, huge confidence boost  8)

Np and my hair is super dry and curly like a fro without straigtening and it didnt ruin my hair to bleach and dye it at the salon. They have the good stuff that will make it soft and protect it from damage.
I use argan oil and it keeps my hair nice n soft.

Worst thing to damage hair is blow drying it. Second worst is straightening it. But using argan oil before blow drying and straigtening protects from damage. Your hair will be fine just use stuff to keep it from getting too dry :)

OMG! I would like to be able to colorize my hairs! xD well no luck for me no matter the color it won't stay, it's dripping in 2 days and come back to natural/bleached hairs :(.

Tattoos are cool, I got plenty and they all made me look more feminine : D

Even demi and permanent hair dyes? :o I have purple ends done with a semi permanent hairdye and it washes off pretty fast, but you should be fine with a permanent or demi color... If you want crazy colors maybe you should consider special fx and punky color,  I heard they last quite a bit...

Well my hair is pretty "plastic" textured so nothing stick to it. Few "permanent" color seem to stay a few days more but well they fade in less than a week. Even bleach is an hell, even with the strongest ones, I need multiple application to only reach blond. Well maybe they will find something someday for my kind of hair that doesn't cost 450-600$ for a half head quantity (yes those ones work but well it's too expensive and need to be reapplied every 2 months)

Well, now that I live as myself I find my natural hair cool :). Red hair looks really better on a girl than on a boy :) (well in my case it is)
