I finally scored a job, well a paid internship, and the best part being they don't really care what the hell I come dressed in, meaning I can go wild with the hair and piercings, not that I am but at least it gives me flexibility to express myself. But before I do anything, I just wanted to hear some people's opinion on some things, and ask some stuff too. Best to get everything settled in the thread. And the spoilers is to help not make the topic look so bloated, might as well have edited the images on photobucket but didn't think of it till after haha

1. People say my hair fairly light, so I wouldn't really have to bleach my hair, but I'm not entirely sure on that, here's what I have

or

2. After washing your hair, how do you dry it without your layers just blend into the rest of your hair and losing it's appeal?

3. I'm planning on dying my hair black, but that seems rather dull so I thought maybe another color blend? Perhaps Black and Blue or RedPurple tips? Maybe black with some blonde? Or possibly just stick to my natural color with some tones? Open to ideas.

4. Piercings. Already decided on what I'm gonna do with my ears, but I'd just want ideas.

re: your hair, you definitely wouldn't need to bleach it if you were dying a darker colour, that'd be crazy, but if you wanted to go lighter or a bright colour like blue or red or something I would bleach it. if you're going black with streaks of a bright colour, you'll have to keep the streaks separate when dying it black and bleach/dye them separately.

I don't personally like dyed black hair and I think going from blonde to black generally looks even worse. especially if your eyebrows don't match.

You could try using some product in your hair to give it more definition, a wax or weak gel or something maybe.

What's the point of getting piercings if you don't even know what you want?

[.:.Lish.:.]

I think if you go for black hair perhaps have the red tips? And for that you will have to do that in two seperate washes, so I would dye your hair to whichever distance you want black and leave the res natural so then when you wash and dry your hair you can then do the tips of your hair a different colour.

Prince albert

and pink hair!!!1

You could probably get an Albert in most places without it affecting your appearance at work, to be fair. But yeah, get a prince Albert.

You can get piercings anywhere on your body really, even your eyeballs if you were really into piercings. Dermal anchors too, those are popular with the piercing-obsessed and there are corset piercings for the ones who are absolutely mad.

what, you mean like I said?


and yeah, what Bob said, maybe you should put a bit more thought into the kind of piercings you like before you just get random ones for the sake of it.

As far as the piercing goes, I'm just debating on a single lip ring vs the traditional snake bites, I'm just unsure about that. And I just wanted people's general opinion as to what they thought suited me best.

As for the hair, I honestly considered pink tips once I grow out my hair longer xD
But for now, I'm just unsure of the color tips. And my brows oddly enough are darker than my hair so I don't think going darker would pose so much of a problem.

But so far, thanks for the input
