Fashion Looks You Won't Dare To Try
Friday, December 12, 2008After convincing my self to post more about fashion, i guess i came up with this. Another idea loaded from momgrind but i made a big difference. Yes a difference because you won't gonna dare trying these fashions of they so called "uniqueness".
Well, the girl above may look cool or even hot for some especially guys but not this one:
or even this one...
Girls that are wearing jeans with torn, torn it on the RIGHT place on your jeans. I mean not too high that your underthings will peep someone's eye.
Caution: The next image you are about to witness is not fabricated. You won't gonna like to lead your attention to the persons on the image. But please, do not call any exterminator, slasher, ripper, or even hairdresser.
awful...or even awful as this unique fashion shoes?
All of you i think got a bit of memory for the Rock and Roll Legend, Elvis Presley. Elvis provide an icon to music industry especially to fashion. It was so hot that time...as this one:
Cool Elvis' attire, as long as it get fitted. On the other hand, these next two modern or earlier human beings i guess will be the next stars...
Great fashion icons...
World Hair Trends: Remembering the past up to now
Wednesday, December 10, 2008Professional stylists influence hair fashion with masterfully crafted works of art presented at local, national, and global hair shows. Each new show reveals a fresh approach to hair styling and coloring. New products, new techniques, and a range of looks from classic to the very fabulous ones!
Well, this is a bit unintentional post for me. I googled if there's such a topic about funny hairstyles, and my luck momgrind and 80srewind provided some pics for me to relate to.
Caution: Some of the hairstyles you are about to see are not Eco-friendly and may harm our ozone layer. The people on the images are just fashionable and have the sense of humor to show up. Parental guidance is advised. :D
Let's start from the 50s...
1950s: Beehive Hair
Correct me if i'm wrong but i guess now i know where these ERASER heads came from.
And oh! there's an urban legend occurring on this hairstyle. see this for more:
The Fatal Hairdo
Early 60s: Big, Stiff, Very “Done” Hair
1970s: Feathered Hair
and the male version...
and it made me think if the U.S. former President George Washington be the first to have this hairstyle.
1970s - 1980s: Tight Perm, A.K.A Poodle Perm
Some rocker style of the 70s and the 80s. A big tribute for the slow rock legends including Dire Strait in my opinion. No wonder why our paps even did this style before :D Well it's funny nowadays.
1980s: Big Hair, Jheri Curl, New Wave and the Mohawk
According to momgrind, eighties were all about power dressing, big shoulders, lots of jewelry and of course BIG hair. You will likely need a combination of hair mousse, hair gel and hairspray to recreate this lovely look.
Check out this metal band, Poison. Now see the idea of what was BIG hair meant those times.
Look at this guy. Jheri curl was a product that African Americans used to relax their hair. The result was a curly, wet look that, at the time, was hot. So hot in fact that Micheal Jackson himself had a Jheri Curl (or something close to it). Micheal Jackson’s hair actual caught fire during a Coke commercial when a spark from the fire works on set hit this chemicalized hair. Caution: Flammable!
Mike Score, lead singer of an 80s band known as A Flock of Seagulls, is wearing a style that he made famous.
The New Wave 80s hair style consists of short hair in the back and sides with very long hair in the front swooping over one eye. Gay is the way to go with the new wave hair style. It should look pretty and glamourous.
This is one of the most insane hairstyles of the 80s. It looks like a stylized backward mullet. There is simply no excuse for this hair style.
1970s-1990s: Mullet
Well, i call this the horse hair style. :D Short in the front, top, and sides, but long in the back. This hairstyle was popular from the early 1970s to the early 1990s. Just take a look!
Below is the Mohawk, a hairstyle which consists of shaving both sides of the head, leaving a strip of noticeably longer hair in the middle. Mohawks became common in youth punk subcultures in the early 1980s, then gradually spread to mainstream fashion. The hair in the middle is often elaborately shaped:
Timeless: The Combover
A combover is worn by bald or balding men in which the hair on one side of the head is grown long and then combed over the bald area to minimize the display of baldness. Mostly seen on politicians nowadays :)
And spartans...
Today? There are so many hair style trends for Y2k. Hair trends come and go so quickly, it can be a challenge keeping up on the latest hair styles.
Emo??
Wednesday, October 22, 2008What is Emo?
The term "Emo" is used as counterculture; it is an abreviation of the word "emotional". Emo it's defining not only an attitude, but also a fashion that are coming from emocore (emo music). Emocore is a combination between hardcore and punk music which was very popular in Washington DC in the late 80's. The emo culture continued to develop between '90 and '00, reaching the height of its popularity today.
The Emo Fashion
By almost all current definitions, emo clothing is characterized by tight jeans on males and females alike, long fringe (bangs) often brushed to one side of the face, dyed black, straightened hair, tight t-shirts which often bear the names of rock bands, studded belts, belt buckles, Chuck Taylor All-Stars, skate shoes, or other black shoes (often old and beaten up) and thick, black horn-rimmed glasses.
Emo fashion has changed with time; early trends included haircuts similar to those worn by the Romulans and Vulcans in Star Trek, tightly fitting sweaters, button-down shirts, and work jackets (often called gas station jackets).
This goes for girls and also for boys!
Let your hair grow in the front and side parts so they cover your face. In the back you can let it short and spike it up with gel! Some do that, some don't! If you have short hair, the first months are going to be a pain, because you won't be able to make your hair look "emo". As it grows, comb it towards an eye in the direction that you want. After 3 or 4 months, when the fringe reaches 3/4 of the way down your forehead, go to a hair dresser that looks professional, and get it thinned out and have it trimmed so that it will grow in the right shape.
Either if you're a boy or girl, you'll need to straighten your hair, with either an iron or gel. If your hair is wavy, just use hairspray/gel to weigh it down. I suggest buying an hair straightening iron and use a a good moisturizing shampoo to prevent your hair from getting damaged. Tip: If you wash your hair too much, this can dry it out; that doesn't mean you don't have to wash it at all, bleah.
If you consider dyeing your hair, dye it black. The other colors are not so cool and you'll look like a clown, in my opinion.
After 3 or 4 months, your hair should look like you want. From that point, you should go to the hair stylist monthly for your hair to be thinned and stuff.
