Hair?

Denchera · 04-12-2009, 12:29 AM

I want a hairstyle to match my outfits but I can't seem to find something that fits, I was forced to cut my hair a few months ago so I'm growing it out again, but does anyone have any ideas of what I could do now?

Solumina · 04-12-2009, 11:30 AM

Well what do your outfits look like and what kind of hair do you have?

Denchera · 04-12-2009, 01:34 PM

My outfits are all black mostly, I can't find any good Goth stores around here so I have to wear anything I can find. Right now I have brown hair, down to my eyebrows and it's all combed down.

Goth stores? Thrift stores my friend, thrift stores are your best friends. If you had a digital/webcam and could show us yourself that would help lots.

Denchera · 04-12-2009, 01:46 PM

That's exactly what I did at first, I searched all the thrifts I could find and still nothing.

"Black" doesn't really describe your look and "brown" doesn't really describe your hair. Do you go for a deathrock look? Romantic? Cyberpunk (though I suppose not as that would involve a bit of color)? Tradgoth? Elegant? Black is just a color and it is hard to come up with a hairstyle that goes with a color. Also the color of your hair isn't as important as the texture and length. There are different things that can be done with different hair types, I could tell you the most amazing hairstyle but if it wont work with your hair type then it doesn't matter.

As for where to get clothes you can find pieces just about anywhere, some of my "gothist" pieces are actually from Macy's, Target has also been a source of many awesome finds. It really isn't about the individual pieces but how you put them together and accessorize.

You should do a full-on victorian goth style thing, like Dave Vanian with the teased black hair and a white streak. And you can hide behind bushes and scare those little kids who like TWILIGHT. I hate them all.

Denchera · 04-12-2009, 10:28 PM

Haha, I was going for a more Punk Goth look because my clothes are mostly in that style.

Pineapple_Juice · 04-12-2009, 11:19 PM

Are you a dude?

Denchera · 04-13-2009, 12:04 AM

Yes.

Well if you like the victorian/classical goth style i think black or white hair looks the best. You can choose what length you want, it's personal taste. If you're a bit punk, try black with some flashy colours! you could choose..again, long hair or spikey, just look at you're hair as a blank paper, you can do anything you want with it! Streaks..colours..black..white..anything!

Quoted for truth.
Rozz, that made me laugh.

Get a high and tight or a crew cut.

Go to target or walmart. Most of my clothes are from there since charlotte's thrift stores suck. I am able to get clothes to pull off my mortician inspired look quite easily. Any scissors, scissors and thread and needles are your friend when trying to make your own look, well, lool like yours.

Pineapple_Juice · 04-19-2009, 09:39 PM

Now I feel out of style. I was unaware one's hair had to match one's style of dress. I must look ridiculous. My hair is the color of a fire truck with bits of black and blonde and I just wear skirts and sweaters.

Goddamnit. Why didn't anyone tell me? I thought matching shoes and handbags was where it ended!

Nah. You've got to make sure your aura complements your eyes, too. You're behind the times.

Saya · 04-19-2009, 10:05 PM

Yeah, now that I have short hair I have to dress like a pixie or a hippie. Its the law.

Pineapple_Juice · 04-23-2009, 10:28 PM

Hippies have long flowy hair with flowers in it. And lots of grease from lack of proper hygiene etiquette. Or at least that's what my grandmother says.

LaBelleDameSansMerci · 04-23-2009, 11:28 PM

Grandmother may have skewed opinion.

I just have long hair. Almost dead-straight, except for little bits at the side of my bangs that curl annoyingly.

Big hair is fun...

Pineapple_Juice · 04-24-2009, 10:55 PM

Agreed. Big hair makes life better and more pleasant. Which reminds me-I'm due for a cut 'cause the layers in mine are getting too long to poof as I please.

Denchera · 04-28-2009, 02:19 AM

My hair is impossible to work with so I'm just going to grow it long and dye it black, I don't like my natural color.

Joker_in_the_Pack · 04-28-2009, 02:23 AM

Liberty spikes rock pretty hard, and a mohawk always works (unless, of course, you're opteron man O_O)

Pineapple_Juice · 05-05-2009, 02:19 PM

I haven't seen liberty spikes in a long time.

I like Maggot's hair. A lot.

EMIEMIEMI · 05-06-2009, 10:49 AM

What do you actually look like? For example, whats you skin complexion, what shape is your face etc.
It's hard to recommend you something when I have no idea whether or not it will suit you.

I'm kinda thinking at the moment perhaps get a choppy messy style, dye it black but shave a bit and bleach that bit if you go for a more "punky" look.

A picture would help. Then we could look at your face shape and determine your season. How can anyone know what would look good without that information? Guess you could go get the trendy hairstyle in the Goth magazines.
