Ready for a Hair Change

Throughout my life, I've never really done much with my hair. The most adventurous hair I've had is my current hairstyle. It's short and black, and that's not really bold at all. Although I like my current hair, I think I'm ready for a change.

This is the hairstyle I've been wanting:

I'm not planning on going blonde, but I might do something with the color. I'm not sure when I will do this, but probably somewhat soon.

What do you guys think?

    I really like it. I'd love to do something like that, or have an undercut or something, but I have psoriasis in my scalp and don't want people looking at that!

    Can't wait to see pictures of you with this.

      That's unfortunate about the psoriasis, but maybe you could do a faux undercut. There's tutorials on youtube that are pretty good! :)

    I like it. I think it would be cute on you. Seems like I am not the only one interested in a hair change. :)

      Thanks! I might get some streaks in my hair, I don't know yet.

    Hair changes are always fun, because mostly you know if it turns out bad it can always grow and change constantly!
    Go for it!

    Haha, that's my haircut! It's amazing and definitely worth it. It's so easy to take care of and you will love how bold and cool it will make you feel. It does need more trims than basic long hair to keep the shape though, but that's the only con about it. (Besides needing a thick scarf to cover your now bare neck in the winter haha)
    Can't wait to see photos of it when you go for the scissors. Good luck! :)

    P.S. if you've never gone really really short or been hair buzzed before it does feel very weird and will freak you out a tiny bit because they cut so close to the scalp and buzz the nape of your neck to trim up. just fyi! :) But after the initial "omg" moment it will seem silly and you will love it!

      This is great! Thanks for the advice. I would've had it done by now, but the only hairdresser I really trust to do the cut hasn't been working the times I'm available. Will a barber do this cut better than a regular hair salon for females?

    I would love to be able to pull something like this off, but I've always been too scared to get short hair :3 Personally I think it would look awesome if you kept it black and added white streaks

      You should try short hair, you might like it! If you don't then it's just hair; it will grow back. I do like the white streak idea, but I'm not sure what I'll do yet. Thanks. :)

Odd Ghoul Out's 2019 Concert Clip Show

It's been a decade since I first got into goth music and subculture. And, with my tongue firmly stuck to my cheek, I observe how I am  still  a baby bat! I'm young enough to still be called a "baby" at shows and club nights yet old enough to recall, with deep nostalgia, vying for a spot directly in front of the stage at my first Peter Murphy show nearly 10 years ago at a now-relocated venue in Atlanta... I also remember with fondness—and some embarrassment—writing a cliché poem for Peter Murphy, referring to him as the "original Bat." And, instead of keeping it to myself, I actually threw the typed poem up onto the stage directly following the show, hoping he'd pick it up and keep it in his breast pocket. Ah, the folly of youth! I don't recall there ever being this many bands of the goth or goth-adjacent persuasion playing in Atlanta since I got into the subculture. That's not to say there weren't plenty of bands playing this city. I only f...

Let's talk Goth, Consumerism and #zerowaste

Disclaimer:   I do not claim to be an expert on low waste (or "zero waste") living —far from it . The purpose of this piece is to explore what it means to belong to the Goth subculture in the context of consumerism and making sustainable choices. There are many ways to live sustainably, but this piece will focus on reducing waste. This piece does not seek to shame or blame anyone but rather to challenge throw-away attitudes that dominate our world—and the modern Goth subculture—by offering another perspective. Respectful discussion in the comment section is welcomed.  W hen I hear the words "zero waste," I often think of people making videos to show off three months of trash fitting inside a little mason jar, their magical Whole Foods shopping trip, or even a tour of their impossibly-tiny capsule wardrobe. Search #zerowaste on Pinterest and you'll come up with pictures of tidy little beige pantries with uniform mason jars filled with chia seeds, nutri...

My Halloween

Halloween morning, I groggily skulked out of my bed, stepping on the cold tile of my bathroom. It was 6:30 am, and I was not ready to get up. Regardless, I sleepily prepared my hair and makeup, because I was determined to be Jareth the whole day.  To become The Goblin King, I took a trip down to Walmart where I purchased my man piece, which is a star of Labyrinth in it's own right. No bulge equals no Jareth, and I wanted to stay true to the movie. If you can imagine, it's pretty silly and a bit awkward going to store late at night to buy nothing but a fairly large groin gaurd.  The hair is also a big part of the costume. I prepared the hair using an 80's glam rock wig and a ton of got2b Schwarzkopf gel and spray.  Finally, came the make-up. I found a few tutorials on You tube that helped give me direction. I applied primer all over my eyelids and on half my eyebrows.  After that, I took a white cream shadow pencil, and I caked ...
