Full On Bangin'

So, I have my hair appointment tonight-which always puts me in a great mood. Changing your hair can be such a transformation, and you can do it one day! it's not like working out at the gym, or cleaning your face, or tanning, where you have to wait weeks and even months before you notice any results.

I could never be a boy. they must get so bored with their hair. i guess this explains the facial hair obsession. it's their compensation for not being able to twirl, clip, and curl luscious locks.

i had decided on the color and length weeks ago, however have still been bouncing back and fourth on one decision.
bangs? no bangs? I dig bangs, but my hair stylist told me that bangs are so 2007.-fuck that. she also told me i just couldn't part my hair straight down the middle. and i seemed to get away with that okay.

okay-to the point-yes i know-sorry.
i was browsing chicks with bangs (and i'm not talking trendy side swept bangs. i mean full on- bangs my mom made me have when i was 8) and i realized something. Most of the chicks that are "full on bangin" are some of my favorite female musicians.

Check out Jenny Lewis & w/ rilo kiley

<---bjork

joanna newsom--->

<---Sarah Neufeld of Arcade Fire
(she's the one right in front)

Jenny Conlee (awesome piano player-responsible for keyboard in The Decemberists)------>

Adorable Kate Nash (who is yet another example of the fact that it's okay to love mainstream pop if the artist is British)

Natalie Gordon of Agent Ribbons. They're not famous, but they are fresh outa Sac and awesome. Look 'em up!

<---Kate Bush (though this picture shouldn't count because everyone had big hair and thick bangs in the 80s)

And this is a great picture of Sia------------->
It's different from her normal photo-ops of glorious color. She just looks simple and sophisticated.

Do you believe me yet that great piano swinging gals have some correlation with bangs? No? Coincidence? phsssst....

isobel campbell (belle and sebestian)

tegan or sara...i'm not sure which one has the straight, blunt bangs, but it doesn't matter. they're identical twins.

Cat Power

I have come to the conclusion that all my soul’s musical inspiration lies at the tips of my bangs and I need to make them short enough to drip harmonious stimulation all down my face!
