    Going vintage from a shaved head...

    Aw thanks! I'm loving it too, easiest way to be a blonde :D So I'll bite and post a pic. This is wigless, with glasses and no makeup (ok let's be real, mascara, but that's pretty much a permanent fixture). Which is how I've been rocking it the past few weeks. Its so great to not have to...

    Going vintage from a shaved head...

    Good thinking with headbands! I hadn't really thought about that. I'll add that berets are a great idea too. I wear those a lot. Especially now that I have a bit of hair.

    Going vintage from a shaved head...

    WW2-era short hairstyles?

    I've done vintage hair with hair MUCH shorter than that! :D If she curls it then honestly, that's like 80% of the battle in my opinion. I hated, HATED sleeping in rollers and only liked pincurls a tiny bit better. I can't rave enough about these rollers...

    Round 2 Beauty Box thread

    I haven't used that one though I do want to try it. I usually stick with Colorstay. It's the best foundation I've ever tried for me. Mac is always too yellow and Revlon is just my perfect color. Let me know how you like it if you end up buying it. :)
