Obligatory Hair Fair 2014 Post! Part Three: So Many Hairs!

(Above)

Blues - Annie: Blues made its shiny debut at this years Hair Fair. With the same owner as Okkbye, whose fresh-faced cosmetic items I am a fan of, Blues hair has a very cute, natural, easy-to-wear feel about it, realistically messy and casual. This first hair, Annie, with its little tiny ponytail, makes me feel a bit like Jim Hawkins in Disney's Treasure Planet. This is a good thing.

Blues - Rosalie: I'm a sucker for this kind of style, and for straight bangs. As is the fashion these days, Blues hairs come with the different colours on a HUD, and here I'm wearing one of the brighter reds included, as I felt befit the style more.

Clawtooth - Cherry Bomb: I remember the first year Clawtooth was in Hair Fair, when Clawtooth was still super-obscure. It makes me feel kind of old.  Cherry Bomb is a comfortable shirt wavy style with a short parting. It's nice. I should note that I always tint Clawtooth hairs. In my pictures seen here I'm actually wearing Red Eye Flight tinted a pale salmon colour.

Blues - Emilia: This is my favourite of the Blues hairs I bought. I am completely in love with the awkward little straight-cut bangs it has. It's got a delightfully mid-90s feel to it.

Clawtooth - Color Me Pretty: This is the kind of hair Clawtooth does best, lush, thick-looking, long wavy styles. Can never have enough lush, thick-looking long wavy styles from Clawtooth.

Lamb - Nothing: This is a versatile short style by Lamb, who I bought a few styles from this year. A nice thing about this hair is that the shorter part can be either removed for a part-shaved look, or even coloured differently from the rest of the hair as I have done here. It could also probably be worn on its own but I fear that would look silly.

Lamb - Sacred: This is a classic Lamb style, I think I have an old version or something very similar in sculpt. I'm very happy to have a mesh version of it, because I completely dig this.

Lamb - Dream On: I am as much a sucked for a good twin braid style as I am piggie buns. I love how these have a slightly wonky aspect to them, they put me in mind of my own somewhat sideways attempts at doing anything at all with my hair in RL.

Obligatory Hair Fair 2014 Post! Part Two

Alice Project - Adore: I didn't buy Alice Project hair for ages.Well. For a few months. This is because I'm kind of dumb and got myself all confused over how the new textures worked. Luckily, Alice Demonia explained it to me the other day and it's not complicated at all and everything is good now! I just need to buy the "Infinity" pack to still be able to use this shade of red. And I'm so glad, because now I can get back to buying styles like this, which 1. falls beautifully, and 2. has options on the HUD for streaks, and I love to express my secret wish for blondeness through streaks!

Ayashi - Hanako: An Asian-ish bun with straight-cut bangs, what I love best about this style is the ringlets to the side. The hair sticks are colour change and can also be hidden, adding versatility to this innocent style. Ayashi is a store that was new to me, and I like how they mix anime style with more realism on their ads, for wider appeal.

Amacci - Coco: I tend to associate Amacci with those flowing flexi-alpha styles of 2010-ish, which it turns out is wrong of me, because the styles they've put out for Hair Fair 2014 are nicey-made, modern mesh, so I should take a second look at them. Coco was for me at first just another cute piggie buns style (which has a version with or without bows) until Persephone pointed out that the placement and shape of the buns made it like Mouse Ears hair. And so how could I resist?

Alice Project - Airedine: Airedine is a variant on the earlier-mentioned "Adore" (the names are connected, if you know your SL stores!), with the long straight hair behind the shoulders this time. The bangs are separate and have a non-rigged version too so you could mess with the length of them if you so desired, but I'm a sucker for pin-up style straight bangs like this.

LeLutka - Charlene: I bought every hair LeLutka put out this Hair Fair. I may have a problem. Charlene is a cool ponytailish thing with like braids and a little knot at the end and feathery bits at the side and it's really pretty. Also worth noting, while the shade I'm wearing (Jessica) is much less red than I normally like, it's the basis of all the hairs I wears, because LeLutka's hairbase in Jessica is my One True Love.

LeLutka - Christine: It's like I'm Hera or something. I don't even know when I'd wear this, but I adore it and will buy Ancient Greek dresses and such just for an excuse.

LeLutka - Francine: A nice slightly loose updo, casual enough to just wander round wearing, but nice enough to have with a nice evening dress of some kind. That beautiful big hairpin was very unfortunately placed for my traditional elf ears though. My left ear stuck directly through it, and needed to be removed. A brutal price to pay to wear a hair, but a fair one.

LeLutka - Coleen: This hair I can't even. It's just a work of art. It's got so much depth to it. I want to grab it and crinkle it because it looks so perfectly real. It really is a technical masterpiece.
