Hair toys - Haiku du Jour

transparent cream and beige -
once protection, the horn comb
hoists my hair skyward



Once you have long hair, the hunger for hair toys/accessories begins. Some new toys arrived from Vietnam via Etsy. So not plastic!

Victory Rolls - Haiku du jour

they cannot be small,
my victory rolls, my hair
demands opulence.

I dabble in retro looks, mostly to avoid falling into lazy hairstyle habits (the eternal frumpy ponytail, for example). My thick hair looks dreadful when I try small rolls, but suddenly turns cooperative when I twirl a large barrel. I look very Andrews Sister-ly tonight.

Blah - Haiku du jour

seeking elegance
and delicate images -
no luck, i'm just blah.


This is what happens when inspiration deserts me, even on a Friday.
