Hair will probably be the next topic. Too many people have problems figuring it out.

Well, she is helping people. Thanks to her, we know more things not to do.

Let's see... my Mom got my the regular bookset, video and subscription to a teen fashion company when in elementry school. Then I went in to modeling. There I learned about applying make-up, walking and keeping up on fashion. Reading the regular teen magazines for a few years, went up to high fashion magazines. After that decided that taking pride in your appearance is vain and completely went away from all fashion stuff. Then realized that I went from someone who was promoted or recieved a raise within the first few months to having to go to HR and point out that my contract bumped me up to a raise after the first six months.

After that I realize that appearance does count and can make an impact in anyone's life. Avoiding a dictatorship, it is more about emphasising major points that anyone can benefit from and fit into their work or daily lives to become shiny. As for major trend things, trying to stay away from that. My personal style probably shows up in the videos, a bit, but wanting to make it inclusive for everyone leads to being subtle. Eventually, might do a bigger Goth video with the black tu-tus, thermals, knee-high boots and romper stompers. For now, just helpful advice that applies to everyone.

Catch, avoid the hair topic. Kontan will pwn you, without a doubt. DON'T EVEN GO THERE.

Honey, I've seen some pretty awesome homeless people.

You're so sweet. Anyway, Kontan doesn't really deal with women's hair, though I will add a couple phrases to make it gender nuetral.

Why not? I'm supposed to be sorry about assisting the fashion inept by giving them basic knowledge. Sorry oh Queen of Fashion everywhere K5.. there are tons of threads from people who don't understand basic concepts let alone the trends that are being thrown at them.

I will now tell a very sad story. When I was young, a friend asked me to help her with her make-up. As a person who applied make up at a young age and experimented with the medium often I calously said, "Here is a picture, just imitate what you see."

Later on, she returned. She had used the black camaflague in order to totally blackout her eyelid and smudged some under her cheeks. It looked awful. Understanding where she was going with it, I offered to help. It was too late, she completely shuns make up of all kinds now.

Should mention I'm more steam punk or industrial anyway. There are several of you that will never like what I do. I don't care. So you can shove it.

BTW, romper stompers are just steel toed boots and are illegal in most states. Combat boots can really identify a person's interests.

YOU ARE THE FUCKING FASHION INEPT. You incessantly wear clothes that are seriously bad for your figure in both colour and style in all the videos you've posted.

You gave bad fashion tips, it's a little difficult to believe you'll give good hair tips.

MY GODS.. I never claimed to be the Queen of Fashion, but when you're spouting bullshit AND claiming to know what you're talking about.. yeah. I'm gonna say something. YOU do not understand basic fashion concepts.

Steel toed boots ILLEGAL?! Are you out of your fucking MIND? YOU TWAT.

Docs are still good if you get the ones made in england. The ones made in China suck, though.

You know nothing Catch, I know a lot more about fashion than you and I pale in comparison to quite a few other you. Just let go of the fantasy while you have some dig-... nevermind, just let go.

Does anyone else feel like they're repeating themselves?

Indeed. I have the misfortune of owning a pair. And, unfortunately, I have no other shoes. I miss the old Docs.
