I've chopped off all my hair

...and I'm not very good at taking selfies. This took literally hours lols.

Anyway, I went to Bleach in Dalston and showed my uber cool hairdresser a picture of Agyness Deyn. She put a toner on my hair so that it was less yellow, snipped a load off, asked me how I felt, to which I replied 'nervous' and then she told me there was no going back now and proceeded to give me the best hair cut I have ever had eva in my life eva eva.

I couldn't wipe the smile off my face as I journeyed back across London from the depths of east. I totally 100% LOVE IT.

Definitely start of the new sassy and assertive and confident new me. Watch this space.

Hair-spiration.

Today I'm getting inspiration for my next hair move, that I shall be making at the end of summer.

I went brunette for winter:

And then I bleached it for summer because bleached blonde hair is a summer essential:

(This was really quite traumatic. I'm a poor student and so obvs I bleached it at home. The first attempt went GINGER. Actually not even ginger. A sort of orange colour. Not the desired effect, truth be told. I spent all night bleaching my hair but I still had to venture out the next day with weird yellow hair. I was going to the Bowie Is exhibition so I just painted my lips purple and wore some very old tartan trousers and embraced punk in homage to Bowie's best 70's looks.

Side note: The exhibition is FAB. Because I was desperateeeee to go but didn't get my act together in time to get hold of a ticket I became a member of the V&A just so I could go and it's totally worth it.)

And next I want to go white/lilac. Does that make sense?? Almost a sort of blue rinse, but without the set and winter fuel allowance.

And then I remembered how fab Mary Kate and Ashley were in the 90s days:

Which got me super duper excited for my 90s themed party I'm going to have for my 20th birthday in the house in Bristol eeek!!!

And 90s Gwen is just too amazing to miss out on:

Hope everyone is having a happy hair day!

About Me

I dream of marrying an Italian, like drinking tea when
it's raining, wearing cat eye sunglasses and baking cakes. I'm currently studying Philosophy and English at Bristol Uni. I spend my spare time drinking cocktails, riding a brilliant blue bike, trying to enthuse an old dog to go for walks, sometimes attempting to write and wearing numerous fabulous coats. Occasionally there are essays to write and books to be read and exams to revise for. I want to travel the world.

If you like, you can follow me on Twitter.
I'm not funny or interesting. I mainly talk about my dog. But you could follow me anyway.

You could also follow me on Instagram.
Again, not overly interesting, and my dog does feature heavily here as well (in fact, my sister once described my instagram as Muffin's fan page) but ya know, have a gander.

Ooh while you're at it, I've already mentioned that I like baking. Me and my adorable friend Ellie share our attempts at baking here. She is much better at baking than I am and it is often quite embarassing.
