After the fun we had last post I decided I would share all of the videos Celeste and I made the last time she was here. After finishing up with her Hime style squid hair we decided to give one of my favorite styles a try: big curly one sided up do thingy covered in flowers. Catchy name yes?
I will be doing a lot of these videos again as proper tutorials once I get Sophie back from the laptop fixing place because James has set me up a fancy new video area with nice lighting and a backdrop. Celeste is coming back soon so we can do more together too!
Again no talking, just music so feel free to imagine this conversation in the background:
Violet: I think this style is kind of Marie Antoinette-ish at least that era. Well maybe not in a really historically accurate way but still pretty.
Celeste: Pft very pretty. Almost as pretty as Nyan cat!
Violet: Hahaha! James has been trying to play that all morning on his guitar>_<
Celeste: I wonder if I could get my school band to play?
Violet: Nyan orchestra! So cute!
Celeste: I like this style, very pretty.
Violet: You should do it at home for work!
Celeste: Meh too hard to get up that early XD
Violet: True, also get up so much earlier just to look like the wind blew your hair over to one side and you fell in a garden of flowers?
Celeste: Ahahahahaha!! *sending photos to roommate*
Roommate: Cyndie Lauper!!!
Violet and Celeste: -_-‘
Hope you enjoyed!
So if you want to see the photos James took of Celeste or read more about our day, check her post over here!
Side note: I managed to find a place to fix Sophie, thanks for all of your suggestions guys!! She should be back in action tomorrow-ish 😀

Today on Violet Vision.
Big curly updo.
You need a hair curler/straightener, bobby pins, flower pins, hairspray.
The finished look.
Proper photos in the blog post.
Celeste’s hair was already mostly curled from the last style.
We did this look after taking out hime style hair so the top was uncurled.
You can use a curling wand, straightener or pin curls.
Doesn’t really matter as long as it’s mostly curly.
Pull the hair up into a high pony tail.
Use fingers not a brush so it’s not too neat.
Leave a couple of the curls hanging on one side.
Twist the ponytail once and bunch to the scalp.
Scrunch the curls towards the scalp and pin in place.
Bunch most at the top and over one side.
Fix up any curls which need it with the straightener.
Add lots of hairspray.
Add flower hair pins all over the place.
Taadaa finished.
Quickly, send more photos to the housemate.
Thanks for watching, see you next time.
Yesterday my laptop Sophie became deathly ill with a broken right fan motor. It looks like she’s going to be out of action for a least a week while she’s in hospital. I’ve got posts saved for this week but until she’s better I’ll be working from Edward, my 7yr old previous laptop so replies and everything might be slower than usual because well… he’s slower than usual XD
Tomorrow I’ll be posting another hair video Celeste and I made and after that is using some Illamasqua make up as temporary hair colour. Hopefully the only thing that gets pushed back is the crochet bunny tutorial because I can’t video edit on this machine (the edit software is too new to run on him).
Fingers crossed I can find a reliable non-busy, non-crazy expensive place to fix Sophie soon!
Recommendations of city based Mac repair stores would be greatly appreciated!
Have a good weekend, I’m going to use the down time to do a bunch of craft projects! I’ll probably post the list of projects over at my mobile blog later today if anyone wants to see ^_^
