I love your curls!

My mom likes the big 80's hair with teasing. I don't want to do that to my hair. Yikes.

"Too blended" Whoa, I never heard of that one. I think that I am going to demand money for each time I am accused of having the hooker look. The charge will start at $200.

Actually, I started talking "OMG" statements from family as looking hot. LOL That's the looks that strangers in public will say, "Wow, what shade of lipstick is that?" or "I love your hair".

In other words "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy".



Boy, I love your hair and your e/s. Everytime I look at your pictures, I am in awe.

I am very fair too, so colors really show up on me. It can appear that I am wearing more than I am.

Yes, I would rock that blue.

I don't disagree, but not every criticism stems from jealousy.

I usually only wearing neutrals around my family though.


I love how you wear your makeup! That's great your SO is cool with it.

He also hates it when I curl my hair but has gotten used to it and likes that my roots never stay curly. Loves me in dark brown hair, hates redheads.

Everyone in my makeup class wants to color my hair blonde for some strange reason.



For some reason, when I go to certain hairdressers, they want to dye my natural blonde hair dark brown. But, then I see them dying all the naturally dark brunette girls blonde. I wonder if it's for contrast. I actually allowed one to do it, because I love brunette hair. I looked so awful. I looked like I was ready for Halloween. Oh, but, I do love brunette hair.

All that to say: While my mother does not attempt to tell me what makeup to wear, she has her ways of letting me know that she prefers that I go with fairly conservative shades, and I'm fine with that.
BUT she likes my hair short, and I like it long, so I wear it long.

I use to give in and not wear anything, but life's too short to cater to everyone's opinions, so I wear whatever. My family loves when I put on makeup, though they did not understand when I cut off all of my relaxed hair to go natural, but they love the long locs now.


I think I would go into withdrawals if I only wore eyeliner and mascara. Your hair rocks!

Looking at the poster, uh, I still say it's jealousy. She is smokin hot.

Not all criticism steming from jealousy sounds like a good theory topic for another thread.

And thanks!
You know another thing came to me while I was looking over the new post. As far as men or SO's are concern, maybe they dis the makeup because they know you look hot and they don't want other men/woman noticing you, because then there would be competition. Just a thought.

i won't take makeup advice from her though. she wears foundation that is way too dark for her, and has often encouraged me to do the same so i don't look so pale. the funniest thing was one day i matched her foundation - she's a shade darker than i am and i had some foundation that matched her perfectly. i then did the rest of her makeup and when she looked at herself she thought it looked great.

so what did she do the next day? slap on too dark foundation, despite having a bottle of foundation that matched her skin tone.



Personally, I know I am trying to get my mother out of time warp. She thinks her eyes are tiny. She makes them up like that.

I am sooooooo glad you are doing your own thing. AWESOME!

shes always like smooth your hair down... stop getting extensions... you should wear your makeup more natural... why dont you stop bleaching your hair and go back to brunette etc etc

but if i turned round and said 'actually i think youd look better with a bit more makeup on' or 'i find your hair pretty boring' well that would be rude huh?

but i like us being so different

where as when im with my other mates with the same style...gosh we encourage eachother 'more blusher' 'more lips' we look like a bunch of drag queens by the end of a night out
