Haha, I don't have any way to a) find a stylist who knows anything about curly hair and b) make an appointment between now and Sunday afternoon. I was just going to hack it off myself or just get someone to trim it up Saturday morning.

This is when you can tell I never do this weird girly stuff.

That came out amazingly. I say it's good enough for the party, totally- even if you aren't a carbon copy you are rockin the style. You might try wonking hugeass curlers and see if they get you the wave thing- those were really too small to get what she'd got going on. It's funny how the old way is still the best, isn't it? Also: no wigs! This already totally looks more awesome than a wig would.

(When it comes to hair and makeup, I'm almost as much of a boy as you. Except for the requirement to be purple.)

Yeah, I wanted to do it with my own hair because then it's like holy shit, that's your real hair! Which is awesome!

Yeah, I'm going to go back and see if I can get slightly bigger curlers. I had big ones in at first, but they were a different brand and didn't seem to stay in as well as the ones I ended up using. But it was funny that the curlers completely worked after all the hi tech stuff didn't. It didn't even take as long as the hi-tech way!

And good, if it has your approval I think it's acceptable. I don't know how many other people on my list have actually seen the show. I told Colin I'm completely insane; he guessed I was coming as Coop. Hahaha. :-D I thought I'd told him I was doing Audrey though.

Ha! Coop would be so much easier!

I think the old style curlers are the only ones that would have a prayer in my hair. Curling irons and the like? I can even spray an entire bottle of aquanet on it so my hair stands out horozontally to try to keep it in, and in a couple of hours I'm back to straight hair (not to mention, the smell of melting hairspray = ew). The "fast" and dirty way of using heat just doesn't work on my hair, at all.

You also now know exactly how to dress up like Shirley Temple for Halloween!

Also: I do believe you totally need to do the beauty mark, as well. It's a very Audrey thing. (The whole concept that most of the people on your list have missed this fine piece of televised cinema makes me a little sad though.)

I am totally doing the mole. I have black stuff to do it; I just wasn't going to explain to the guys at work why I had a fake mole. Real makeup practice is tomorrow.

I bought a bunch of slightly larger curlers. I used the wire mesh kind instead of the plastic kind; the plastic kind kept slipping out. So I would probably recommend the same thing for your hair because mine's the same way, it normally won't hold a thing.

I think...wait...Audrey HORNE? All this time I thought you were trying for Audrey Hepburn. Fuck me in the goat ass.

I think you look gorgeous and I can't believe the difference the rollers made. Your face is stunning, and the lipstick is fabulous on you.

OH HAHAHA NO. For a Twin Peaks party! I've done Audrey Hepburn before; that's where the pearls are from and I actually have her dress and an acceptable match for the red coat from Breakfast at Tiffany's. I adore Audrey Hepburn, but she is much easier to mimic; a good french twist can do it.

Dude. I've never even seen Twin Peaks. I must have completely skimmed over that part, since I didn't know anything about it.

And that's why I kept wondering "why doesn't she just pull her hair back?!" Now I'm glad I didn't suggest it!

slinks away feeling completely stupid...

It's okay! Although your recommendations for straightening and then re-curling actually worked PERFECTLY to get the flip she has in Breakfast at Tiffany's. I almost said that if I was doing Holly Golightly, it would have been fabulous.

Your hair looks even more amazing.
You should do your hair that more often!

P.S. Don't dye your hair! It's such a lovely colour!!!

Haha, thanks, I'm not dying it! Don't worry! And I totally intend to. It really wasn't that bad. It was easier than the straightening was!
