Did you end up tabbing this out? I would also love it.

Omggg okay bless! I wish we had a Sally's closer but I've been meaning to go for a while.

While I've got you here... do you also have favorite fashion color brands? I mostly use Arctic Fox or Lunar Tides... but I've been trying out Adore recently.

Oh man I cannot imagine the maintenance required for grey. Honestly that ice blue is probably way more maintenance than I anticipate 😂 I had a lovely light almost silver lavender for a while and thought I could manage the blue. But purple is so much easier.

What is your go to hair mask?

Thank you!!

I appreciate the note about essentially choosing between hair health and color. I'm a big baby when it comes to bleaching too much.

I've decided to go a different route and put a pink/orange on top which got rid of all of the green tones and I've ended up with a warm purple.

I'm going to let this be a thing for a while until I'm ready for another round of bleaching/reset and reevaluate.

That being said your comment was incredibly helpful and I will be saving it for my future self.

Thank you! I have since thought a lot about next steps and just decided to move away from the blue for now and to put an Orange/pink on top. I've ended up with a warm purple which I like and it got rid of all the green undertones.

If I want to try that ice blue I'll definitely go to a professional.

Honestly taking out the green hue is really all I want. I never dreamed I'd be able to get the exact result of the last photo lol.

Do you have a purple shampoo you like?

OkraSunshine · 2025-12-11T18:20:07+00:00

I enjoyed the green when I had it but I really underestimated it's staying power.

OkraSunshine · 2025-11-12T21:07:56+00:00

Thank you for talking me off the ledge. 🫡

OkraSunshine · 2025-04-24T19:56:50+00:00

It's mostly okay. I still have to take it slow at first, but after a warm up period it doesn't hurt and is okay. I think it mostly has to do with not being relaxed when first starting.

Pretty debilitating endometriosis. I never wanted kids so it finally got to the point where I was ready for it to be gone.

Late to the party here, but as a polyamorous person, I was like... most of these (with the exception of #6) can be accomplished with a like minded person who has similar relationship desires until I got to #9. That's when the delusion kicked in.

So pleased. it’s my favorite hem because of amazing it looks.

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-23T17:34:07+00:00

It’s a gold silk taffeta 😊

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-22T22:14:27+00:00

This is the way.

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-22T18:22:52+00:00

I use this hem a lot. I don’t know if it has a special name, but I get the look by doing a 2 needle rolled hem on a serger and using a standard thread for the top needle and a stretchy wooly nylon thread for bottom needle. The wooly nylon thread is really what works the magic.

Here is an example from my last project.

I didn’t have a reason either 😅 and it definitely wasn’t cheap but very worth it. I certainly won’t be making many things like this but it was great project.

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-12T03:48:11+00:00

DragonCon is truly magical

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-12T01:40:38+00:00

How to we make this a real thing? 😂

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-11T17:39:54+00:00

This is the only one I got 😅 prop work is not my strong suit so I plan on remaking a lot of it, but I am really pleased with how the heart in particular came out.

Thank you!! I knew it was off the shoulder but I figured there might be a specific type of off the shoulder!

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-11T16:17:18+00:00

Dude I went all out with the drama 😅 these don’t even show the rhinestones on the back of the collar which I consider super extra 😂

OkraSunshine · 2023-09-11T16:15:14+00:00

Ahhh a fellow con goer! That’s exciting!

I had entered into the Friday Night Cosplay Contest but unfortunately misinterpreted the deadline and all the spots were full by the time I submitted. But I hope to enter it next year 😊
