hair and questions

You guys ask me so many great questions through comments, email, and Twitter that I thought I would round-up the five questions I get asked most often.

1. I don't wear extensions or dye my hair!

2. I don't use Polyvore for my moodboards; I just use the Paintbrush app on my Macbook.

3. I can always give you more information on any clothing item you see on zipped. I get lots of emails asking about certain pieces, so you can always inquire after something you love!

4. I work in Seattle and live nearby. I was also born here, so I am a true Washingtonian.

5. I've been undecided for a few years, but right now my future career is in fashion styling.

Speaking of my hair, it decided to make an appearance today.

Okay. Let's talk about my hair. This is my natural hair (above photo). I get tonssss of comments (online and offline) about my hair. I guess because it's long and blonde. Someone asked about my hair care routine, so here it is. I get a trim two or three times a year (waaay less often than you're supposed to). I use Organix shampoo because it's paraben and sulfate-free, and every week or so, I use a deep-cleaning shampoo by Pantene. I don't use many products, but I like BWC natural hairspray, and I use a hair mask every few months. I don't really blow-dry my hair, I barely ever straighten it, and I just curl a few sections when I want it to look more...peppy.

And that concludes my hair story. Vintage shopping tomorrow! I'm using these pieces from Betty Jean Vintage as inspiration; her finds are lovely.
