Hot Mullet Men

Tonight I was watching The American Mullet


And, I realized there are a few mullets that I'm kind of okay with. Kid mullets, rock star mullets, biker mullets, punk/hipster mullets, soccer mullets.. I've only ever cut 2 mullets one was cool for a client who was in a band, and he tried all sorts of cuts. I always looked forward to cutting his hair because it might be a mullet, it might be a rat tail, it might be pretty much all shaved short with lines carved into his hair. But, I also did one in beauty school for a cross gender man that wanted to look like a woman...It wasn't cute. I wonder if I'll ever date a mullet man..It's not really my ideal style, but who knows..hahah

Here are the mullets I'm kind of into...
 



 At last Saturday's Timber's game I had such a hard time not cheering whenever David Beckham made a goal against our team. My friend Monica and I had the be
st time just watching him play.

 Brad Pitt sporting a mullet..

Some of my major celebrity crushes growing up...

 

A rock climber that I'd gladly cut his hair into some crazy style..I've always been a fan of Jason Kehl's creative, wild hair..

Okay Braveheart was a badass and he has a mullet.






One thing that I thought was funny in the Mullet movie..one of the guys seems to think that his mullet will attract lesbians..And, he seems to think that's a good thing because you know how much lesbians love men.. hhmm...I also like that lesbians don't want to hang out with the type of guy who has a mullet and mullet men don't want to hang out with lesbians, but this is a hairstyle they both share..It's kind of sweet...


OKAY I AM NOT PROMOTING THIS HAIRSTYLE...But, I have to admit I've had a crush on mullet men all my life I guess..I didn't even realize this...Now I think I would like all of them more with just a short kind of buzzed hair, but somehow the mullets work... It's a mystery. There is something wild about this hairstyle..It's usually not good...What do you guys think?

I heart Audrey



Had a lovely Saturday night after a long day at the salon. This is my second month of netflix, and I've been catching up on movies...Tonight I spent the evening with Audrey Hepurn at Tiffany's... I think I saw this once at 17 because I loved Audrey Hepurn. I didn't really get it then. At 32 I can understand the girl that I dressed up as in college for Halloween in my black dress with a feather boa sewn to the bottom, sunglasses, long gloves, jewels, and a 40 of schlitz malt liquor in a classy white paper bag.

 wish I could have had her in Salon Capelli





And, I could still probably sing every song from this movie:)

Lana Del Rey



Just reading the Music section in People Magazine from Feb...I'm always a little behind..

people magazine write up

Alt-Pop
After her much-maligned appearance on SNL last month, you might doubt if Lana Del Rey is the real deal. Born to Die, though, lives up to the hype that scored her the SNL gig before her debut album was even released. The chanteuse, who fancies herself the "gangsta Nancy Sinatra," conjures an alluring potion of sultry torch pop, hypnotic trip-hop and David Lynchian atmospherics.

....I read the Nancy Sinatra/David Lynch reference, and I had to check her out. I grew up loving Frank Sinatra he sang about love, but he spent a lot of time in Vegas, Florida living a life full of controversy. He was associated with the mob. He left his wife for Ava Gardner. Then was married to Mia Farrow 21, Sinatra age 50. Old blue eyes was definitely a character. And, part of me had a crush on him until he died when I was a senior in high school.

Lana Del Rey's songs capture that part of a girls heart that is slightly crazy, obsessive, and dark...
She's not my new favorite singer, but something about her voice is addictive.

And, yes...I love her hair and makeup...especially the deep side part of start like Ava Garder, Veronica Lake, and Lauren Bacall.

enjoy.

I'm in Danger of becoming a Red Head...



I think by mid summer I'm going to transform into a red head..Too many of my clients are asking for red...or Seriously Orange hair.. they aren't afraid of going more and more orange..And, I find myself wanting this for myself too..I love my brown hair, but I want a little adventure in my life for a while...Maybe I'll slowly begin it now, go full on for summer, and maintain it through the holidays and fading back to brown after Christmas.. Sound like a hair plan:) I know it's more high maintenance, but it's time for a little fun!!



Here are a few movies and music that inspire me for carrot red...





Florence and the Machine.. So powerful




In college Run Lola Run and Fifth Element had characters I loved. They were powerful yet vulnerable, almost unreal, feeling out of sorts with the world, yet very much present and alive in it. I love the German and alien which I can't understand..Sometimes I feel like this in life..too much verbal information to take in everyday..Yet, somehow we all manage to figure it out:)





During my junior year, I dyed my hair bright red to go rock climbing in the Red River Gorge...We had to bleach it out and dye it with manic panic...It came out hot pink..And, that was perfect for me!! I think it stayed like that with a few more dye jobs for a semester before my parents expressed how much they didn't like it...I'm 31 now..It's not going pink..But, I can amp up the color a little...On my 70th birthday..maybe 63 I'm definitely going pink again...When my hair is all white there will be no point in maintaining this natural illusion..



Lynn Yaeger fashion editor for Vogue


And, for my romantic heart:) Who doesn't love Nicole Kidman's red hair..




And, who did we all want to be as little girls..Ginger..The movie star... I liked Maryanne, but she wasn't even a millionaire's wife..What did she do before ending up on the island? Was she there with the professor?


this was just way too funny..I had to include it..And, what is going on with Mrs. Howell's hair?

The Stars...

Emma Stone

Blake Lively

Julia Roberts

Scarlett Johansson


I read this week in Glamour Magazine.. guy's take on.... Redheads..."They are like the unicorns of women-except they really exist." ....Anything to be more like a unicorn. magic. free. strong.


I might just ponder this over more tea for a while...

Kate Welsh...I've always loved her hair

Song of the day:)

Hi blog world,

Realize it's been a while since I've posted.. So, here is a video I recently found that I love..I know it's 4 yrs. old, but I'm just discovering it now...There are a whole series of these surprise concerts in streets and cafe's.. The horns, strings,accordion, and a voice that is dreamy will hopefully be a taste of sunshine on another Portland rainy day..
