me=bored with my hair

wow... im REALLY bored with my hair.. i need something hippish to do with it.. i ALWAYS wear it just down.. sometimes i dye strips of it a neat color but im bored of that too.... heres a pic... yeah if you cant tell its right at my shoulders and its thin! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!





any ideas on what i could do?? im totally bored with my hair.. i want dreads but my mom won't let me cause im only 15

thanks!!

ps i want something that isnt really hard to do and its quick but ANY ANY ANY ideas are appreciated!

 

cut it just past your chin and dye it all one awesome color--maybe orange?

It was fun for me.

 

i need somthing to do with mine too. its really long and thick. i usually just wear it in a bun. im thinking of cutting it to about my chin, but i dont know....

 

im mixed up between a mohawk, growin it long or dreads :/

its pretty short now (just to my brows ) gonna take 4eva to grow

 

well...you can always pull a Sinead O'Connor. And if you're mom won't let you get dreads, you can always go with "temporary dreads." All ya need is some gel or hair wax. Those can come out within a day or two. Just use conditioner when you take them out. lol, I love dreads. (is that an oxymoron?)

 

how do you do these "temp dreads"???? im really interested in these, cause i want dreads but my mommy wont let me! lol

 

There are heaps of things you can do. Make up your own hairstyles. Experiment with styling products and bobby pins, clips, hair bands etc. Put a rinse or semi-permanent through your hair. Tease it a bit and make it look funky. Before you go to bed, roll up pieces of damp hair, fix them in place with bobby pins and take them out in the morning. If you don't like the way it looks just wet your hair.

Your hair is a good length for experimenting and the good thing is that if nothing is permanent you can totally change your style to suit your mood.

 

Temp Dreads: ok, first make sure your hair is semi-damp. Take some gel or wax (I prefer wax) and work it into 1''-sections of your hair (I guess 1" should do the trick...or anywhere from 1/4"-1 1/2") Then twist each section & coat the tip with lots of gel crap so the twisty dreads won't unravel. I guess that should just about do it. Good luck!

 

I've always had short hair, so i'm letting it accumulate into a large mass, and onc eI've done that, i don't know what I'll do with it.

 

why do u want to do something 'hippish' w/ ur hair...i just don't understand all these young kiddies...and how they want to conform to the hippy standards..
hippy should be in ur heart not on ur head...
u don't just get dreads...and then there they r...it should be something that happens naturally...why don't u just let them start forming if that is what u really want..they will take a long time .... so maybe by that time ur mommy won't mind..or u'll be old enough to do what u please...
i dunno mama....i think ur hair is beautiful just the way it is...hope u figure it out..

 

bah what the fuck, Wont let you? I did mine when I was 15. now mine are gone. I'd mail mine to you and you could glue em on and not actually do it to your own hair, but i threw em out. ahhhhhh go for the dreads!

 

I want to get dreads, I just cut off a lot of my hair (but it got donated to make a wig for a kid without hair, so that made it all worth while) so now it's just below my chin (it used to be right below my boobs) I think my hair would look good in dreads (I made a thread about it in this forum, everyone agreed)

Why won't she let you? It's your hair, not hers.

 

hahaha my mom is sucking she thinks its associated with "bad things" ... grrr

what kind of wax can i use for those temp dreads?? i wanna try em! :-D

rar... i said a "hippyish" hairstyle because hippy is my lifestyle.. so yes. but ANY hair ideas are GREAT appreicatted!

 

it can be really hard to do things like that when you're still under your parent's rule. i remember wanting to die my hair so bad... but if i did, i would just be making my life hell as long as i lived with them. but yea, you can buy temporary dreading stuff at places like hot topic for an 'outragious' price. personally, i think the wax stuff gives 'girly' dreads, hehe. it really is best to stay as natural and/or individualy creative as you can. ...wich can also mean asking for opinions and ideas.

gah.. stupid parents.. i'd say cut it a little (only to make it eaiser to work with) and dread it. from there, all sorts of creative things can happen.

 

alrighty!! thanks so much guys... im gunna try these temp dreads things!

 

Maybe you could get the mild form of dreads..!
peace

 

which are what.... lol

 

dammit!! i have the same problem. my mother says she won't let me be associated with
" those drug addicts " just by my hair. i don't really care. i think i'll go to camp somewhere and have a friend do it there. hahahahaahahahaha. i think i'm just gonna let my hair be. i wonder what it would be like if i didn't brish it for a week...

 

i know!

 

hmmm...why not step out of the label and stereotypical"hippie" and try something new...i have a chelsea cut...and for those who dont know what that is, its completely shaved with only bangs in front..i decided i live the hippie lifestyle but i want to do things that no one else has enough guts to do because here in america people are too afraid of what others might think.....
