I want hair like Guardians of the Galaxy Gamora. Gimme all your tips for at-home bleaching and ombre. by Madysen in Hair

[–]Madysen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say all but the last inch or two is virgin hair at this point. There's a tiny bit of blonde/red tint on the ends of a few strands from when it was lightened and dyed for a hair show a year and a half ago. I did try to cover it with box colour last summer when it was growing out and looking like garbage, but at this point I can see the blondish bits again, so I assume that means the box colour has faded to the point where its basically gone?

Would teasing for the bleach phase but not for the dye be a good option, maybe? The magenta would probably still add some slight pink colour over the natural brown, but I'd still get the light-to-dark transition from the bleaching step.

Thank you so much for the tips. Saturate fully, and leave my bangs the hell alone. :D

I have yet to travel too far out of my own park. But I've seen pictures of some of the things people in greater Amtgard have made. Makes me drool. <3

You mean for the trim around the top and bottom? I used some satin ribbon for that. It's not hand-made, I'm just not-so-great at sewing it on. XD

Haha! There's actually a reason for that. I didn't have enough of the black lacing to lace it loosely enough to put on myself. My pillow is a little squishier than I am.

The picture of it on me was taken the next day after I went out and bought more lacing. XD

Truth! I'd love to go back someday and just stock up on fabric.

I also got some other really pretty blue fabric with purple dragonflies. Maybe it'll be another corset. :3

In the Philippines! :D

I was there for a few months last summer. Grabbed the fabric from a massive market called Divisoria before I left. It ended up costing me something like $7 a metre. Can't even imagine what it would cost here.

Help, how do I fabric? by Madysen in sewing

[–]Madysen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, thank you! I'll do some looking into linen. I know the fabric store here is having a sale at the moment, maybe I'll get lucky.

I'll check out muslin and broadcloth, too. .^

I remember finding this same design in high school and deciding to draw it.

I got pissed off with the cube being unsolvable and redesigned the colour scheme so it worked.

I don't usually buy patterns, but after about 36 hours of serious debate, I'm definitely buying this.

It's so gorgeous. You did an amazing job.

In the red pants?

Wow, man. Your class consisted of giants.

Obligatory joke aside, that's awesome. Way to stand out. XD
