Hey everyone, i am new to LJ so looking for like minded friends and so forth, but of course before people add me or think about it, ill put a little bit about me first. :)

First thing's first, i am 25 years of age, living in cornwall in england, engaged to a wonderful guy and together we have a 2 and half year old daughter. Life is busy with those two and a manic cat and of course with my old hobbies and movements i pretty much do not have a single moment to myself until 7pm each evening but that suits me :) Other than that i am a qualified nurse although at the moment i am just raising my daughter whist my partner works... i just do not seem to have the heart anymore to go in be a nurse in the way concidering how the way the nhs has become and the way hospitals are now run i cannot become part of that side anymore but thats too much information.

Other than what i have said above i have a huge desire to create jewlerry which i am currently working on some new designs and how best to mold them. I am a huge fan girl to jdramas well any korean dramas to be honest same with taiwanese as long as the story is good, characters worth watching i dont even notice the fact im reading it. Best way to be. Some of my favourites are hana yori dango, hana kimi [jap version too], devil beside you, why why love, liar game, gokusen 1,2,3, your beautiful, kimi wa peto and loads loads more. :)

Music wise i adore everything and anything except a lot of classical. At the moment i tend to be listening to a lot of foreign music from a lot of korean bands such as Arashi, kattun, news, gackt, dbsk, rainie yang, boa, kodi kumi, wonder girls and loads more from that genre. Other than that i a fan of some old music such as stuff from meat loaf, ub40, sting, davie bowie, phil collins, rod stewart, drifters, commodors, fleetwood mac, michael jackson, four seasons and many more.

I adore rap and hip hop and its weird for a girl to like them so much but some of the songs are brilliant, not all about shooting people up which is good. Some of my fav artists are ndubz [i see them more as hiphop than pop tbh], 2pac, snoop, dre, eminem, dmx, lil wayne, flo rida and a lot more.

As for movies i am a fan of the twilight series, [ i know sue me rofl]. harry potter, lotr, whoopy goldbergs movies, jim careys movies, bruce willis movies, snatch, menace to society, boys n the hood, kidulthood, adulthood, will smiths movies, disney [lol always been a fan and with lil one i have to be with the ammount she watches them], i like some horrors, mostly comedys and some dramas i do enjoy a tear jerker here and then but not all the time.

tv series haha i am such a geek i am mad on csi i have box sets of miami and ny at the moment, Also love torchwood and doctor who, cannot seem to get enough of that series, Numbers is a new one i have become to like because it is slightly different approach to a crime series. Ghost whisperer i got into this from day one and never really stopped watching it. doctor quinn medicine women i am a fan of as i watched this when i was younger, much younger and really enjoyed it and just recently noticed there showing it again so ive gone and gotten into it all again, soldier soldier adore this series got boxset of it also as i am a squaddys daughter i can relate to a lot of what is shown in there and i suppose it brings back memories for me.  xfiles again got whole series told ya i was a utter geek.

Huge fan of anime such as spirited away, howls moving castle, fireflys, princess mononoke pretty much all his work, fruit baskets, zoe, hack, hellsing, trigun, FMA, wolves rain, blood last vampire, vampire hunter d, fusugi yugi, chobits, trinity blood and many more which i really cannot remember right now.

other than that i am a full blown gamer when i get the time, i played legend of ares before it closed down, hoping for it to be released again as it was one of the best pvp games out there today. i play jade dynasty and run a alliance there it is a pretty good mmo and pvp isnt too bad if you go into the pvp realms but sadly it doesnt compare so much with loa. :) i am on gaia online as a community :). Hm i am a final fantasy fan, have xbox live and pretty much love any rpg, drama games there are including a lot of fun ones. i have a lot of consoles from olden days and i must say i still love my ps2 as it has all the early ffs on it, legend of dragoon, alundra, vagrant story, kodelka, shadow hearts and many more plus sing star which i must say is very fun when you have a house full xD

Hm damn this is long what else, i am mad on makeup and everything to do with it. :) so expect a lot about that and also probably some tutorials as well XD

other than that i suppose if people want to know more they can ask me themselves, enjoy

i've had the same variation of hair for around...hmm 4 or 5 years? it's awful. i'm so bored.
i ripped my extensions out about a month ago and my hairs longer than it has been in a long time. i also cut my bangs straight across but it still hasnt satisfied my need to switch things up.

( me, for a while. )

I live in Hawaii and unfortunately we don't have a Sally's Beauty Supply store here. Are there any other stores that would carry the same things as Sally's? I don't know if we even have any beauty supply stores in Hawaii. If not then I guess my only option is ordering online.

Hey mrh-ers!

So I posted about a week ago now?? About dying my hair light brown (back to my natural colour) but I wanted my fringe a different colour.

Ive changed my mind again haha. Im doing the same, just minus the coloured fringe.

I have a question for you all, though! Hopefully you can help me.

So I have red hair. How would I go about removing the red, so I can dye it a light ash-y brown?? I want ALL red colouring gone. I was going to go to the hairdressers, but they cost a fortune, plus also they are all closed for the next couple of weeks (christmas, new year.)

So how would I go about this?? I live in australia so we have different products here... and I could buy online but I would prefer if I could just dye it without having to buy online.

So its not text only, here is a picture (very bad picture) of the colour of my hair, plus a recent one of me just for reference.

( hair under here )

X-Posted to dyed_hair . EDITED to put a cut in

stilllllll looking.........................

because everyone likes a timeline, right?

i'm at home for winter break and i'm simply dying of boredom... which always makes me want to mess with my hair. any ideas for a CUT?! i always seem to mess around with color. as you see in the 30ish pics below.

( timeline! )

 It's me again...

I've been on Lj for many years now and I have made some awesome friends, sadly the have all drifted away from lj and still... Here I am.
Since the New Year is coming I decided a NEW livejournal was in order, I am just looking for some new friends to get to know for people to get to know me. I update daily and I love reading journals.

Hi everybody! My name is Maria, I'm 21, and I live in Chula Vista, CA. I'm pretty laid back (most of the time...) and I obsess over random crap nobody cares about. XD  I made this journal a few weeks ago and I *was* going to keep it anonymous but without the community aspect LJ isn't the same lol. So I'm recruiting to have something to read about! Se habla español!

After being laid off for a job I had for 3 years, I have WAY too many free time. So you can guess how the morale has been lately.

Here's a list of random interests I can come up with to see if we have something in common:

- Random: aquariums, nintendo, music, caffeine, chinese food, traveling, sleeping, celebrity gossip, tattoos, graphic design, and slight OCD...
- Animals: loove them, I have fish, 3 redfoot tortoises, cats, and a dog. I hope to work with them one day.
- Music: pink floyd, yes, david bowie, modest mouse, radiohead, gorillaz, steely dan, gino vanelli, led zeppelin, incubus, mecano, elton john, the beatles, bjork
- TV: ugly betty, the colbert report, aqua teen hunger force, the soup, and I do like some anime... so shoot me


K, I'm tired of typing and I dunno if anyone really wants to read this lol. Nice to meet you!

What brand and shade of red would give me this color?


( more pics )

I have naturally dark hair. My hair has been dyed at least 30 times the past 3 years and it was struggling for a while, but now it's in the best condition it's ever been. I haven't touched it with any sort of chemical since September of this year. My roots are now grown in almost 2 inches and starting a new year and a new job, I want a change. Unfortunately, the change that I want is far too drastic and I don't want it to be done overnight.

I have had my hair red before. Red as in Amy Adams and Marcia Cross red, and I liked it as did everyone who came in contact with me. So that color, with a few light blonde highlights scattered around is my goal.

So having dark hair, how would I go about gradually achieving this? I was thinking multiple heavy auburn highlight appointments, and then a final all over color with highlights. Does anyone agree or have any other ways of going about this? Thank you so much in advance.

So it's not text only, here's Marcia Cross.

 So I posted a while ago about getting my hair cut. It's shorter than I wanted it, but whatever.

Hello! My name is Mira and I'm 25. I'm from California, USA. I've had this journal for a long time but lately have just been using it to participate in communities and rarely post. I'd like to start posting more and reading actual people's entries rather than just community entries, though, so I'd like to find some more active friends!

My interests include art, animation, Disneyland, fashion (from couture to street), etc. I'm obsessed with the show Lost. I have a really curious nature and love learning about everything. I love science! I want to go on an adventure and travel to all sorts of places that few people get to see.

I'm currently working a retail job and completing an externship at a veterinary hospital, so most of my entries are either about that or picture entries about things I've done or places I've gone.

I'm looking to add active, like minded people. Thanks for looking!

I made this post just over a week ago. It's growing on me, but I'm still a little :/ about it. I just came across somebody getting rid of this hair dye, and I was thinking about getting it:


L = Beyond the Zone bubble head pink dye
R = Jazing Fushcia dye

I'm a bartender. I can really do whatever I want with my hair.

What do you think? Should I try adding a little in? Maybe break up the huge chunk of blonde in the front? Cover the blonde pieces all together? If you think I should go for adding some in, which of the two bottles should I use? Or do you think it'd look stupid and I should just leave it as it is??

Very open to ideas/suggestions!! Thanks <3

I am debating on new bangs..
And prehaps some red dye ;D
Some idea's? Pictures?

I am new at this..So I have no idea how to make a cut/post pictures.

So links will have to do.

 Hello out there.
I'm getting my hair cut at around 6pm tonight (pacific) and am looking for some help.
Could you please recommend a sweet hair cut for me? Whatever you think would look pretty swell on me.
I'm open to any change.

here I am for some visual input. This is my hair air dried, so as you can see it's got a bit of a wave to it and I would prefer not to have to straighten my hair everyday
