For you:

Of course when you were tiny. so did I. but i see teenage Japanese girls with HC on their things, and even young (20-25) women. it's wierd!!!

but i'm all into totoro, so i guess "to each his own".

My husband is going to try purple or burgandy highlights in his hair. he used to wear it in this very "french" style, that simply didn't work with asian hair. but he's finally decided to try some of the looks japanese men wear. not the super extreme ones, but just ones that are slightly wild looking, but appropriate at 30-35.

It's...yeah, I find it a bit uncomfortable when a teen/woman have an overload of cutesy things worn at once. I love Totoro, so it's good. ;D Hahaha. OOooH~ interesting hair style! But yeah, purple/burgandy doesn't work with Asian hair. I tried it recently. It came out a dull red...unless I wanted to bleach it and then dye it...which is a no!

you bleach it first. it actually looks really good if done as highlights, or for a woman, a streak in her hair. but it's a long process.

Andddd this is where hair extensions come in instead. Hahaha! My lazy self.
