Rocking the 80's look.

Today I did some preparing for the short film we will be shooting on Sunday. It is a low budget Indie that takes place in the 80's so I'm doing my own hair and makeup. My hair is super long and ultra fine and i can't imagine it staying crimped and poofy through an entire day of shooting even after using an entire bottle of Aqua Net. So I took this opportunity to visit my two favorite wig stores - Metro and Wigland on Broadway.

Metro tends to lean more toward costume and specialty wigs and they had this great mullet wig. I thought it might be a little much for this particular production but it was still fun.

Wigland has higher quality wigs like this permed gem. I sent a snap to the director and she flipped. This is the look I'll be rocking this weekend.

On closer inspection, I realize I look just like Sigourney Weaver about to to a busty new Alien movie.

I know how much @alexbeyman hates short hair so I couldn't resist the opportunity to torture him. I told him I got a botched perm and had to cut my hair.

He was sweet and said he'd "love me no matter what my hair looked like" and "wow, I can't believe how much I hate it."

Then I asked him if he would still love me even if I was a liar. I never really got a straight answer on that one...
