Frrrrrrrr-RIZZ!

The weather's so humid I decided not to even bother trying to tame my hair because it will only curl and stick out anyway--and it went wild and out as far as my shoulders. I looked like azdak's default Music II icon, which I'll try to show you here. LJ's fiddling with Scrapbook and userpics, so this may not work.



What was much more upsetting is that I looked disturbingly like my mother. DO NOT WANT. So I gave in and straightened it just now and I look like me again. I know kerravonsen thought I should let it do its own thing when she was here, but not when I see my mother in the mirror. :-P

Well, you didn't say you hated it because it made you look like your mother! Now I am un-baffled.

Not that I hate looking like my mother, but I can understand why one might. My non-dislike is just as well, since I am the one child in my family who looks like my mother. All my mother's old friends who knew her when she got married would say, as soon as they saw me, "She looks like her mother!".
Not that I look like my mother now; she never had a fat face. (sigh)

That's not the only reason' it's just plain unruly. If it curled attractively instead of sticking out randomly, I might encourage it. The only time it looked all right was when it was long; then the weight made it merely wave and behave itself more (if it looked rather 40s). I recently found a charcoal portrait of me done when I was in Rome, and I didn't recognise it at first. I thought for a moment that I'd done one of Jenna! My face was thinner then, but the artist must still have flattered me. :-)

So what you're saying is that you have Harry Potter hair. ;-)
