C Curls
Thank you so much! Scotch tape really does do wonder. I used that for a little bit, however, I had to switch back to blow drying to get volume and to help the ends of my hair smooth out. It is annoying, the ends of my hair like to poof out.- Meeting Gman

C Curls
Olive Twist, your "praying" advice was really helpful. Doing so helps to give a nice curl and keeps the hair thin and straight. I've been trying and doing various things and using various things and have found Murray's Pomade to be very nice. I used a shine/frizz serum after I blow dry my hair...- Meeting Gman

Television... who's sick of it? Anyone?
I gave up watching tv about 2 years ago, maybe longer. The only time I missed it was when they'd have the Twilight Zone marathons, but I've remedied that as I now have the DVD box set. Aside from The Twilight Zone I occasion a few silent movies and some beloved internet series I enjoy...- Meeting Gman

C Curls
When you say she blow dries it, how does she dry it? The way you dry your hair can effect how it turns out. In truth I haven't been to a hair dresser in two years. I stopped going due to me not ever being satisfied with the end result and also because appointments make me nervous and...- Meeting Gman

C Curls
Thank you! Yes, I simply can not stand hair touching my neck! So I have been tending to keep it short. As for the guiche curls, c curls (whatever they may be called today), taping has indeed provided the best results. I haven't been able to buy any hair tape yet, so I have been using plain...- Meeting Gman

Extremely Oily Skin
I too have oily skin on my face and have dealt with it ever since I was in high school. What suggestions I can offer are: 1. Don't use blotting paper, it's too expensive. Instead buy yourself a bulk of brown paper towels. You get a lot for a decent amount of money (about 30$ but it will last...- Meeting Gman

Weight loss options
I want to lose this fat under my chin. I've lost weight already and have a thin build but then why do I have this infernal fat under my chin? It makes my profile look horrible. I know that they say you can't target a specific part and that weight loss happens all over the body, but I can't...- Meeting Gman

1920's makeup
Okay, well I've given it a go. I'm not quite sure how I feel about it, disappointed I would say. I wasn't able to do the eyebrows as the eyebrow pencil thing was too light a shade of brown. My ever present dark circles under my eyes can't seem to be stopped even with under eye concealer. I am...- Meeting Gman

C Curls
Thank you everyone for the replies! The hair tape seems a really neat idea. I checked and they do indeed still sell it, it just seems that you mainly get it online and not in stores. Some people on Amazon sell it, if you are wondering where to get it. I like Garnier Fructis hair styling...- Meeting Gman

Ok my husband made fun of my make up....
Whenever your husband/boyfriend laughs at anything you do, don't take it to heart. That's just how men are, they laugh at each other and at the end of the day it just makes them better friends. They don't always seem to understand that females can be much more sensitive.- Meeting Gman

C Curls
I think I am in the same boat as you. My hair does not wish to do anything I want it to do. Thank you for your post, it was nice to get a professional stylists opinion. I sincerely appreciate everyones opinions and advice.- Meeting Gman

C Curls
Much agreed. In all my fervor I kept cutting and cutting and made my hair a bit too short. It will take time, but at least it will grow out eventually. Also, thank you very much- Meeting Gman

C Curls
There in lies the problem! I need some way to create these curls after a wash that will retain them through the day. I have tried using a round brush and hair dryer, but to me, that just doesn't seem to be the right way. This "C curl (for lack of better term) alludes me and so I am so excited to...- Meeting Gman

C Curls
To be true I have tried putting my hair behind my ears and I've tried sleeping on it a certain way. It helps a little bit but then doesn't last once I shower or the effect isn't as strong once my hair has been washed. As for hair dryers, the first hand held hair dryer was available in 1920...- Meeting Gman

C Curls
One thing I have had endless trouble with over the years was curling the front part of my hair. I still have yet to understand how to master this. My goal this time is to get Loiuse Brooks curl as seen in this photo: Granted, this was most likely done by professional hair stylists, but I...- Meeting Gman

1920's makeup
Thank you so much! The website was very useful and I am very grateful you provided brands so that I can easily pick these items out without being lost in the sea of makeup. This is quite exciting and I will try to post pictures if it all turns out okay. I forgot about the eyebrows, I will...- Meeting Gman
