New hair sticks!
PalosPelos were kind enough to gift med these lovely hair sticks!
They're of great quality and the wood is nice and smooth.
They came in bags. And the passed the "cat inspection".
Here I'm wearing one in a braided bun.
You will get to see the other one in use soon too!
Today's outfit and a Arwen inspired battle braid
Today's outfit and hairstyle
Today I wore a braided bun with a hair sword and a selfmade flexi.
Today's outfit for going second hand shopping with friends.
Although I changed into a skirt once I got home, since my pants attract fur like crazy.
I might have bought two scarves and three books... You can never have too many. Right?
Length and braid
118,5 cm and around 9-10 cm left to knee. I should be able to reach it by the end of the year!
One year of growth including a trim
I'll trim a bit om Wednesday to start the year with fresh ends.
Christmas hair X2 and outfit
I wore this outfit for Christmas celebrations with the inlaws yesterday. We celebrate the 24:th in Sweden.
And as usual, I wore my hair loose.
Today I wore a fishtail braid with a daenggi for "fika" with my family.
There's no word for fika in English, but It's like taking a coffee, only that it can be anything that isn't food or candy.
For example you can have cookies or cake. Tea, juice or coffee. We also take "fikaraster" = fika breaks in Sweden.
Merry Christmas!
What one does to take saunas...
Step one. Fill up a big bag of fire wood. Let your father move it with a machine. Move the wood with a weel barrow to the sauna.
Carry it inside.
I think that we're good for a while now! It's my fathers sauna by the way.
Now I just have to carry some water tomorrow. Then I can take a sauna and wash my hair.
Did I mention that my family's from Finland?
New hair fork!
Winter
Earlier this week I picked herbs from my garden. Today it looks like this.
Getting ready for At The Gates

Happy halloween!
I am spending halloween with my cats as a witch should! Not really celebrating, but here are pictures of the cats!
Someone did dress up for you!
W - Warrior braid
Warrior braid made from two French lace braids, two rope braids and two English braids.
Also, this is how I'm mostly dressed at home.
Cats and rose hip
I managed to lure her out too today! She tagged along for a while, before going back home.
In less than an hour.
V - victorian rag curls and some steampunk
Today I was at a steampunk fair with a friend and her boyfriend. We had lots of fun!
I did victorian rag curls, although they had kinda' disappeared when the picture was taken.
It was actually quite comfortable to sleep like this.
I bought another hat from imperialfiddlestick.
These.
And this!
One more medieval fair
I was at another fair with a friend today! It was fun even though it rained most of the time!
Braids
Having a bit of fun with my hair
12 years of growing my hair!
12 Years have now passed since I had a side cut and decided that I wanted long hair.
I cut all of my hair to the same length (0,5 cm, so a little shorter than in the picture), but kept bangs to have less of a buzz cut. But since I hate having bangs, so I soon cut them off too.
Back then I used a really dull scissor to cut my hair and would continue to do so for years.
Don't ask me why, but I bleached my hair... Above is the "carrot phase".
Blond and abused hair.
And of course, I soon missed having black hair.
I decided to for the last time in my life, bleach my hair, before dying it red and then go back to black once and for all. And thus the "carrot phase" again.
I also used to let a friend heat style my hair.
I really enjoyed red hair, but what a hassle to keep it red!
After I had to wash it with some special stuff before surgery, most of the dye washed out and I decided to let the bleached hair grow out and slowly cut it away before dying it black.
Before jumping in to the shower to do my first CO-wash.
This is what my natural hair color looked like after a year of CO-washing and when most of the bleach had been cut away.
I decided to never again use chemical dyes again and wanted to be a henna head for a while, before starting the process of getting it black with indigo.
The process of getting it black. It took some time and effort, but it was worth it. Also, my hair finally started to get longer for real, now that I now longer mistreated it.
Black again.
Uneven hemline because of my braid waves.
And this is where I am today. Finger tip length and still growing!
Although my hair would have been a lot longer if I would have taken as good care of it all the way, as I'm doing today. I have no regrets! I had a lot of fun trying different colors and doing stuff with my hair! Now I can grow it without any temptations!

I love nice smelling soaps, so these two had to come home with me.
