Mermaid Hair & Too Much Make-up - F&OOTD


I washed my hair yesterday evening and let it air dry until slightly damp. I then did a french plait on either side of my head and slept in them. I do this a lot since i'm extionally lazy when it comes to washing, drying & styling my hair. This way, i can simply whack it in two plaits without have to dry it and wake up the next morning with it practically styled for me. With a bit of wax and hairspray added, i really like the way it looks. Also, doing this most of the time saves my hair from a lot of heat damage! I applied my make-up as normal, expect for lipstick. (Please excuse the slightly eccentric dressing gown.)

I undid the plaits and gently ran my fingers through them. I then used some hairspray and Garnier hair wax to add volume, before pinning back my fringe/top/side section which is at a very strange awkward length at the moment, so with me being too lazy to trim it I have taken to just pinning it back. Then i put a bit of lippy on (Beguiled by Topshop.... you could've guessed).

  • Outfit (not sure what my left arm is doing?)
    • Long Sleeve Black T-shirt - New Look
    • Check Shirt - Hearts & Bows @ Asos
    • Skirt - Primark
    • (as usual, worn with my charity shop boots, bag & camo jacket with Topman hoody underneath)

    I love your hair, I wish mine was long enough to style like this. I've been trying to grow it for a while but it doesn't seem to want to!

    I cant do french plaits because I lack the dexterity.Whenever I try and do them I get all annoyed and like "Ill never be able to do this because im not an octopus!".I too would love to be able to do it.
