I got tagged by Ringo for a hair me-me.

Doing this me-me made me realise something. I’m too…SAFE.

I haven’t dyed my hair since year 2000. I maintained long hair for almost a decade and only recently had them chopped. And now I’m growing out my hair again. Don’t think I’ll ever curl my hair again too. I’m forever doomed as a typical straight, long haired chinese girl. Not that the bf minds, why do men like long hair so much? Check out my post in moNSTerblog to see what I mean.

So after searching high and low, I still couldn’t fulfill the requirement of 8 different hairstyles. So at the expense of the integrity of the me-me, here are 7 instead of 8 different hairstyles for your enjoyment.

1998-2004: Long straight hair for many years.

2002: Added a green hair and fuschia (not visible) hair extension.

Late 2005: Curled my hair. Big mistake.

Mid-2006: Pigtails by Mom during a bonding session. Please ignore the pimple and pale face.

Late 2006: Made the ultimate sacrifice. Transformed my waist-length hair to a bob. But I loved it.

Late 2006: Barely 2 weeks later, I cut my hair again and did the unthinkable. I layered my hair after 8 years. Hated it.

2007: Grew it out a bit and got the Victoria Beckham-ish bob. Love-hate relationship.

And that’s all. Thanks
