Emo Fashion

Most boys would agree that the best part of this short haircut is that it requires little to no combing. As the buzz cut is very easy to do, many parents opt to purchase clippers and cut their child’s hair at home.
For the parents who do not wish to cut their boys hair quite that short, there is also the option of the ‘classic boy’s hairstyle.’With this style, the hair is layered short on the top and tapered down on the sides and at the back of the head. The hair is cut around the ears and trimmed into the back of the neck. This hairstyle is very easy to maintain. Boys Classic Hairstyles And Haircuts The Bowl Cut
The bowl cut’s name comes from its origins of placing a bowl on the head and then cutting the hair off that shows from under the bowl. This allows for hair of up to several inches in length on top and close cropped hair below the bowl line with no blend between the two lengths. The bowl line in this hairstyle is typically just above the ears.
Boys Classic Hairstyles And Haircuts The Ceaser Cut
A Caesar cut is a fairly short haircut worn in the style of Julius Caesar. The hairstyle is layered to around 1 to 2 inches all over and the hair is then brushed forward to a short bang or fringe in the front. Clipper blades and attachments are used in this boys hairstyle to cut hair short.

The French crop haircut is very like the Caesar except that it is feathered in the front.
Boys Classic Hairstyles And Haircuts The Fade
A fade, or temple fade hairstyle is a short tapered cut. With this boys hairstyle, the hair at the back and sides is tapered from zero length on the lower side up to about half an inch.

The hair can be worn short or slightly longer over the crown of the head. On the top of the head, the hair is usually longer, up to 2 to 3 inches and may be layered if desired.
Boys Classic Hairstyles And Haircuts The Flattop
A style where the hair is cut so the top of the hair is cut into a flat surface is known as a flattop. This short hairstyle can be done in various lengths.
Gel, pomade or mousse will be needed to hold the hair in place depending on how long the hair is. With this hairstyle, the longer the hair on top, the more time it takes to style.
Boys Classic Hairstyles And Haircuts
The Layer Cut

Another classic haircut for boys is the layer cut. With the layer cut, the hair is cut so that the hair in different parts of the head is roughly the same length. This is done instead of being left longer in the middle and shorter around the edges.

This short haircut gives a flat top surface to the typically round shape of the head. To achieve this, the hair at the front central area of the head is cut shorter than the hair at the front and around the top sides of the head.
As a result, a short flattop hairstyle lets the scalp at the front central area of the head to be visible. This look is known as a landing strip.


Emo Hair Styles for Boys and Girls

Emo is the newly developed fashion, regarding hair styles all the way with fashion with it's own attitude. Not willing to follow the "dress code" of others emo has developed its own way of fashion. The 411 on this includes incredibly jet black hair with possible brighter colors such as blue, a maroon-red or a possible pink. These can be highlighted throughout the hair to give more definition and tone to the emo look. The style of the hair is usually asymmetric its Greek meaning it has lack of proportion making it look like a three year old took scissors to your hair, different shapes and length levels. A cheap box of die and some choppy scissors will help you to create your own emo hairstyle. Below are a lot of emo hair styles, which pic is your favorite?

There is no need for concern when making your emo hairstyle, what you feel like doing goes! It's not a normal look so therefore people expect it to be all over the place and to be and over all crazy hair cut. Most emo girls and men guys to the jet black hair for their hair cut and they like the unnatural, uneven look it gives it more spunk. Even though the emo look is becoming more common, it is still an uncommon way for a hair cut. So have fun with it dye it black, chop it up and add some crazy highlights.
Emo hairstyles can be made by you, your best friend or your little brother. The style does not require a professional stylist or beautician. You can just cut the dyed hair all over in different shapes but the hair usually is always longer in the front hiding the face. You can also razor it in the back to have it spiky with the longer bangs for a weird looking hair cut. Both of these are considered an emo hairstyle. No matter what you do to your hair choppy, buzzed in the back as long as you have some uneven pieces framing the face your in the clear.
Emo hairstyles are usually spiky and shaggy a definition of how you felt at that time. It's an all over the place crazy style so use gel and hair glue to your advantage. Adding hair glue to the bangs in the front to make them straight and stiff is a must when trying to create the emo hairstyle. You can add gel to the back of your hair as well to make it stand straight out if you have the back shorter. If the back is long and shaggy just mix and match gel and hair glue to make it a crazy bold effect. Remember the more unusual and different your hair looks the better off you are.

Emo Hairstyles

One of the hottest short hairstyles is definitely Natalie Portman's pixie cut which shows that short hairstyles do not fail to keep up in style with other hairstyle lengths. Because hair takes a while to grow out, changing hairstyle lengths can be pretty hard, especially changing from long to short. For shorter hairstyles, hair extensions and pieces have become popular accessories for fashioning longer hairstyles.

long prom hairstyle idea
One of the primary parts of hairstyles, which is why it is presented here, is the hairstyle length. Hairstyle length can totally decide what types of looks can be achieved. Longer hairstyles can develop longer waves or fancy updos without the need for extensions. Medium lengths are very versatile and tons of distinctive looks can be produced like classic bobs and sleek simple cuts.

Short hairstyles have wavered in popularity but women seem to love shorter hair because of it is easier to take care of and style. 

African American Beauty: Reconstructed

I came across this research paper by a student from Georgia State University (2004) entitled Emulated through Images: The Globalization of Misconstructed African American Beauty and Hip-Hop Culture.

The abstract below gives an overview of the what the paper is all about:
From news coverage to entertainment,
the media shapes, reflects, reinforces and defines the world in which we live. In publishing, theatre, films, television and popular music--industries largely controlled by white men--Blacks continually struggle for both a voice and representation. Many scholars write about the stereotyping of Blacks in the media (Meyers, 1999; Davis, 1989). Light skinned Black women with classic European features predominate in beauty pageants, music videos, and in the world of modeling. It is with respect to the world of modeling and music that this discussion will examine the globalization and commodification of Black female beauty. I will examine the historical creation of Black beauty in the United States and Europe and how theses misconstructed images play out globally.

It's kind of long but a good read. How do we reconstruct our own beauty within the context of the greater society in which we live? How do we grow to feel comfortable in our skin and celebrate our sexuality without conforming to or perpetuating pre-existing stereotypes about the oversexed Black woman? It's complicated but an open and honest discussion is the best way to start. Check out the paper over here.

Hair Envy.... :-(


Hey ya'll! This past weekend was awesome! I think I got some great shots of the 100th birthday party so I will post about that a little later.

But something else that has been on my mind for quite a while lately and that is hair envy. You know what I mean. I have been reading different forums and blogs about natural hair and from time to time I run across a comment that makes my skin crawl. One in particular was from a young lady speaking in reference to the hair of another woman whose texture was significantly looser than her own. I don't really do the hair typing thing but let's just say the fotki owner was probably a 3-something texture and the comment came from a 4b-ish textured reader. I guess that's about the difference between being curly and kinky. Both women had lovely hair. But "4b" said, "Oh your hair is so lovely, I wish I had that texture". Ok, so maybe that's not the end of the world as we know it. But it was surprising to read in plain English right there on the girl's comments section. Maybe if she had said, "Oh your hair is lovey, great texture!" or "Oh your hair is lovely, beautiful definition!" or something like that it would not have bothered me so much. But that fact that one woman wished her natural hair was like the hair of another woman made me wonder how comfortable she really is with herself. I think many of us choose to go natural because we are tired of fighting ourselves and we want to re-discover our natural beauty. In a society that does not tend to accept or hail us as being beautiful, it is up to us to reclaim that for ourselves. I don't know if she really meant to say what she said but I wonder how much she longs for straighter hair or lighter skin or whatever else that is not her idea of beautiful.

This was not the first time I have come across this type of comment. Some people talk about how they want their hair to mimic Tracee Ellis Ross's hair (when it is CLEARLY a different texture than their own) or they want to know which products will loosen the curl. I guess at the end of the day each woman has to make peace with what she's got and she must choose the styles/products that work for her. And I don't have the tightest curl pattern so I cannot judge those who have been socially conditioned to think negatively about their extremely kinky hair. We all have been made to think that way to an extent but I understand that this issue might be more sensitive for some than others. We all have color/texture issues to overcome and we are all at different points on this journey to natural hair and self acceptance. There are so many beautiful textures out there, why should we continue to classify and rate and compare?

Look at all these awesome textures!!!

They are all different but they are all beautiful! Remember, it's one thing to ADMIRE but it's another to ENVY or secretly desire something you can never have because you have been made to believe it is better. Doesn't that sound familiar???

What do you all think? How easy was it for you to accept your texture? Did you struggle or secretly wish to have a different texture? If so, how did you get over those feelings? What would you say to someone with your texture going through the same thing? On the other side, have you ever been made to feel guilty or not part of the natural hair community because your hair is loosely curly or wavy?
I ask not to judge but to see how other people view this subject. Let me know what you think and thanks for reading!

I initially bought it for...



Nano, but it's now PK's.

Got another pair of slippers also but I am damn lazy to go to the shoe cabinet to take photos...



Speaking of shoe cabinets...

I had a shoe cabinet that more like a tall bookshelf.

It was just beside the front door.

That day, I was eating lunch at the dining table and Pumpkin was running about. It was the second day I got her and she was so tiny!

THEN, a massive gale of wind blew into the house, and I saw the shoe cabinet waver, as if in slow motion.

IT WAS ABOUT TO FALL FORWARDS!
And the bloody thing is laden with shoes and is about 2 metres high!!

AND WORST OF ALL MY PUPPY WAS RIGHT UNDER IT!!!!!!!!!!!


Dramatically, I shouted "Noooooooo!" and ran towards the cabinet hoping to push it back into place but obviously I was too late.

My legs crumpled under the weight and I was crushed underneath cupboard, standing fan (was in front of cupboard and also fell knn) and an absolute avalanche of chio shoes I never bothered to wear. CCB!

Honestly man the first thing I thought of was "OMG is the puppy dead??" and I tried to crane my neck and move to see if Pumpkin was still around but she was nowhere to be found.

And then I found cuts on my arms and legs and realised the corner of the cupboard hit me on the neck. It's muthafucking painful man!! And I couldn't move!!

And my puppy's dead!!

I started sobbing and only managed to pry myself out after about 5 minutes.

Turns out all along Pumpkin was just watching from behind me. -_-

Anyway she stayed with me (licking and looking curiously at the mess) while I cried and called Mike to come home from work to comfort me coz I was so scared!! He came back immediately (his work is only like 2 minutes away from our place) and tucked me in to sleep.

Nabeh. Stupid Ikea cupboard.


The cut

I know it's not much but I also had a sore neck for the next like 4 days.

So yeah, stop saying I am so horrible ok! I bloody tried to save a goddamn puppy!! Admittedly the puppy cost me $2,800 lah but that wasn't what I was thinking about when I was playing the hero!



Here's pics of our 3rd Year Anniversary!!


Plugs:

Mosche for my awesome bleach job and great haircut (6735 2149)

Carrageen for great lash extensions (6222 3376)

Hotel Re!
for free suite for the night! (6827 8288)



We planned for an awesome night!! First to Shashlik Restaurant to eat dinner (just like our anniversary 2 years ago), then to a Gold Class movie (Watchmen - sucked), then overnight at Hotel Re! in their Gold Suite!! Complimentary!



Mike looking just as cute as he did 3 years ago.



Me with my platinum blonde hair! I super loves it!!

The quality is not fantastic but I won't say it's any worse than my usual! If I knew earlier that bleaching it so light won't cause it to be completely frizzy I'd have bleached a long long time go man.





Shiny!



Happy baby



My eyes were half closed and I look like some sort of slutty mistress.



I love this pic and I love the hair!

In fact...



I love being blonde!



Escargots.

Mediocre, but then again I've never had
escargots that are less than yummy.



Borsch soup.

Delicious max!



My tenderloin with Foie gras pate atop it.
The steak is fantastic!



Mike's beef stroganoff. Not bad only.



This time I took a picture of the toothpick so I will know how to spell the restaurant's name!

After that we went for our movie at Vivo City. I've been reading good reviews on Watchmen everywhere. WTF?? It was so utterly horrible!

Since when do superhero movies not show what the superhero's powers are and where they come from??! And the lead guy (is it like Danny or whatever? The guy with the Owl spaceship) is like damn gross?

What's wrong with his lumpy lips? He definitely put collagen in them lor I swear! And he even put lip gloss on! OMG!

And the blue guy's DONG. I mean seriously lah, I get it that you are above all this super human intelligence and everything, but can't you put on some pants?? There he is yabbering about some philosophical nonsense and there his dick is, dangling and distracting me. Geez.

Hated it.

Finally, @ 2am, we checked in.


The suite is gorgeous!!



Giant plasma tv that built on a turn-able wall!



Round WATER bed.

Can't say I've slept on one of those before.



Now I can!



I love the toilet tiles. So ostentatious like me!





The toilet has a glass door and hugeass glass windows.

I guess it's not the sort of suite you'd wanna stay in with your mom, unless you are the sort who likes to watch your mom shower. Ew! What's wrong with you??



En-suite Jacuzzi!!


It was fantastic.

We took a nice long bubble bath in the Jacuzzi and mucked around till 4am.

We then slept till 12pm and ordered Room service (Chicken Curry and Seafood Hor fun) before a late check-out at 2pm!

Shiok max.



View from our room. I love those pink and green buildings!



Loves!!!!!!!!!



More Pumpkin

She has a million hair clips by now haha...





I taught her to sit within 10 minutes of training!





PK in my Gojane.com box of shoes



Napping on a tissue box cover











I mosaic-ed my cleavage. It looks gross.









She broke that thing.


CNY at Stanley's place






Estee and Ming



Look at his humongous swimming pool...

Zapzap and Jian Bang posing for me



Gambling all around! The guy in dots is doing wan zi be careful everyone!


Guess what? From the underground pool room you can see people swimming!!




Bathtub like a hotel's



Ming's friend and Mike


Anyway Stanley's place has bloody flamingos! Like 2 real flappy pink flamingos! And 2 or 3 Crown birds! I don't know their actual name but they look like this:



(Credits to whoever took this photo)

And they will peck you if you go too close to them!

I tried to take a photo to show you all but all I got was a darkish patch:



See, I never bluff you!!
I swear they are wear the arrows are pointed at!

I've always wanted to strangle a flamingo but I don't think Stanley's dad will take too kindly to that as they cost $30,000 each.

See, I told you PK is not an expensive pet. Geez!



Random: KK and Michelle when we all went to JB


RVHS Ten Year Reunion!

I was so happy to see my secondary 3 classmates after 10 whole years! Thanks to Jessica, Hotel Re! provided the venue for our little gathering, including KTV!

It was nice.



So formal!



That's Jess in the power suit.
She's married already and she's my age. -_-



Pink and Green! Loves

In the background, "If we hold on together" is playing. Back in River Valley, the school used to play this song all the time for us to sing to!

I remember during the last day of Sec 4, the school made us all gather at the assembly hall and we all held hands and sang together for the last time.

Many people cried!! I think I might have too. It was seriously quite sad.









My plate



Wong the lawyer hogging the mic.

Nobody dared to take it from her coz we were all scared she'd sue us.



Wong with Ripple, who is also engaged!

WTF!!!!!!! Mike!



Boys: Jia Wei, Gilbert and Ian



Yixun (far left, stunned face) and Huilin (next to him, acting chio haha) got together AFTER school ended!! It's seriously weird and romantic at the same time.

Far right: Sheng rong doing some sort of happy dance, wtf.



Ripple Huifen me



All of us!

Honestly man people all haven't changed that much.

We were discussing who changed the most (looks) and Wong said it might be Sheng Rong (who seriously buffed up and grew much taller) but I very indignantly said "BUT I CUT HALF OF MY NOSE OFF!! Nobody else did plastic surgery!!"

Honestly man... You can't change more than that... Grumble grumble...

I am the one who changed the most!! Hmpf! I must be first at everything!

Anyway it would be fun to show you guys a photo of us all ten years ago but I am too lazy. I might do it later.


Wisdom teeth:



Top



Bottom.

Had to be broken into a million pieces
before they could be extracted.

CCB. I hate them. HATE them!




This was taken before KK and I went to Lorong Halus. She said she was hungry, so I offered her some soup that I cooked the night before.

Potato, carrot and corn soup, cooked with Pork ribs. It is damn yummy.

And then......

We found a worm in the corn.


FUCKING DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I didn't see it when I was washing and cutting the corn (NTUC btw) because the bloody worm was completely hidden under the corn kernels!

And only a little bit of the tail was visible! I honestly thought it was a shrunken kernel and ignored it!! WTF MAN!

Thank god that corn piece turned kinda brown after cooking and I told Kaykay not to eat it!!!!!!

I said, "Don't eat that, it looks rotten... OMG IS THAT A WORM??"

I thought it might be a weeny worm but KK went to use her fork to pry off all the kernels and OMG IT IS FUCKING HUMONGOUS!!!!!!!!!

I kept gagging afterwards and felt really bad for letting KK drink my worm soup (which in all honesty tasted great) but she was completely unperturbed!

She even said she'd eat the blood worm for $50 right now! Then she started picking up the worm and playing with it!

Fuck man damn gross?!?!?!

I kept gagging in response, and she was like "WHAT? It won't taste like worm! It will just taste like your soup!!"

I immediately gave her a tenner to ask her to eat it, and she was like "More lah!"

Wah lau...

Later on she changed her mind though coz she tried to tug the worm to break it (what's wrong with her?!?!) and she said the worm is damn hard and won't break so she'd have to chew very hard and she doesn't want to eat it anymore.

Won't taste like worm will taste like soup. Jesus!

Just in case you are wondering I threw away the rest of the soup but it was already half gone.



Random


Dark Knuts
invited me to go for their premiere!

Honestly man, Chestnut plays are so freaking funny!!!!!!

You HAVE to go watch them!



Invited Weili, Wanyi and Shuyin to go



Us outside the Victoria Theatre!





Us doing all sorts of disrespectful nonsense
under Sir Stamford Raffles' statue.



I took a picture of Weili in front of the Victoria theatre and it looks scarily like a haunted house!!!!!

So I took one too:



Hahaha.....


But see, without flash and in real life it's not so dark at all!



Quite chio in fact



Tickets



My mouth looks damn weird here coz this
was day 2 after Wisdom tooth plucking!


Bff


Shuyin's ridiculous necklaces







Weili took a pic of Shuyin looking like some apparition.






Poor me!! Check out my stitches:



And this bitch of an ulcur!!





I presume that my mouth got opened too wide during my surgery, and it caused this ulcur!

It's muthafucking painful!!




Combined with the wisdom teeth extraction pain, I'd got to say that this is officially one of the most torturous experiences of my life.

Every bite of food hurts so bad! Thank god for painkillers man.

Oh and btw? I tried to pull out one of my stitches. Instead of sliding out like it is supposed to, it ripped out my gum, just like how you'd ripped an eyebrow piercing off somebody you REALLY don't like.

It was fucking painful and my whole mouth was full of blood. GAH!!!

5 days after the surgery was Valentine's Day.

My ulcur was still full-blown and I was miserable beyond words because I knew I couldn't fully enjoy our dinner. :(



Our dinner at Jaan @ Equinox.




Menu for the day



Instead of bread we had innovative little biscuit sticks.
They were damn nice!





Ew to the max! Celery and Carrot drink!

Can you think of anything worst? This thingy was complimentary.



Our FORGOTTEN VEGGIES salad.

What can I say?

These veggies were forgotten for good reason.

Tasted like shit.



Can't say it wasn't interesting though.
Look at this pointy broccoli-cauliflower mix!

It tastes terrible.



Mike still ate everything!
He said very expensive don't waste.



Now this is good! I don't know what it is but it's all seared and crispy on one side and the other side is a tad raw.

And the little jelly cubes with caviar on them taste nice too!



Foie gras. Fucking yums!
There was foie gras inside that little fried ball of potato rosti.
Loves!



Clams... Not too bad. The clams are underneath the foamy stuff (supposedly lobster emulsion). BUT UNFORTUNATELY THEY CAME MIXED WITH CELERY.

WTF?? How unpleasant is celery?! Please stop putting celery in stuff!



Fish. Great. Very crispy skin



This is awesome!

Wagyu beef that's extremely soft and fatty. OMG salivate.





Horrible but chio complimentary nonsense



Our dessert. Don't like it.



Petit fours. Nice!

Thus concludes the food.



A view of City hall









Mike



I may look glamourous here, but I bet the diners and wait staff didn't think so.

Because the entire night I kept dabbing on my ulcur with...



KENALOG!

Thank god for Kaykay! She recommended me this thing for putting on ulcurs. It seals up your ulcur and lets you eat in peace! It doesn't hurt at all and it's awesome!

Unfortunately due to the location of my ulcur I had to reapply after every course. I bet everyone there who saw me dab my wound must have thought I have severe herpes or something. (WHICH I DON'T)



Accessories for the night



Mike looking happy. Honestly man... I don't see how he can be after eating the Forgotten veggies.







Chio 4.5 inch shoes

THE BILL




WTF???


We were offered 2 glasses of Champagne initially and we thought it was part of the $500 package we were taking!

But each of the little teeny weeny flute of champagne cost $50!! I didn't even have any coz I don't drink!

I was so bloody upset and guilty about this ridiculously costly dinner and I kept saying 700 bucks can fly us both to Langkawi... But Mike told me to not worry about it as long as I am happy.


WTF MAN! I thought it was gonna be $500, which I already think is waayyyyy too much but unfortunately Mike already booked it.

Nonetheless, we both agreed never to do this again. 14-02-2010, we will be staying at home eating home-cooked laksa.

Somemore the food is not that fantastic. I much preferred it when we went the last time on a normal day and we had the best veal and lobster for WAY cheaper!

Little Chloe's Bdae!!



My cousin's daughter's 1st bdae and she had a fantastic 2-tiered Pooh Bear cake!

It tastes damn nice the top tier is strawberry and the bottom is lychee!
