Hair and makeup questions

I just got a request to do a post about how I do my hair, and since I get a lot of questions about it I thought that maybe I might as well do it. First though I’d like you people to comment on this post about what it is you want to know about both hair, makeup and other beauty related stuff. I’ll then make a hopefully informative beauty post! I’m pretty clueless about this stuff really but I will try my best to answer.

I’ve seen you use pincurls for your hair. But do you use any special produkts to make them hold better. Or shampoos etc?

You’re not clueless! :)

I want to know about everything about your hair: haircut, colour/bleach, how often you wash, how you set it and how often, any products you use - yes, about everything.

And I would also like to know the name of that gorgeous red lipstick you’re wearing in the Disney photos.

Well you have already answered my question about the hair bleaching so thanks for that :-) You have inspired me to have a go myself in the hope that I can save some money, I just need to find a bleach that works in my hair.
I guess it would be useful to know what bleach/developer you use to achieve your blondeness although I know these work differenrtly on different shades etc.
Also I would definitely be interested in the method you use to pin curl your hair (as I know people use different methods and tools) and the particular setting patterns you use for the different styles.
I already pin curl my hair but have difficulty getting it to last after its been slept on so info on how you brush out and restyle the pin curls the next day/make them last would be great. Oh dear I can see this will have to be a huge post to answer everyone’s questions!!

I want to know everything about your makeup especcialy what kind of cosmetics you use to make your face look good without makeup. I’m really curious if there are any particular of them which help you to keep your face white&smooth. What brands in your opinion are the best for mascara, powder and lipstick. What perfume do you use? What is your inspiration?

I’d love to know the set of your pin curls. my hair is about your length so i’d love to recreate what you do. i’d also like to know what product you use in your hair before and after setting.

Hi Johanna! I have been following your different sites for some time and I’d like to know how you did your hair during your long hair phase. I really like your hair in the Paris/Versailles pictures (although I know it may be harder to show since you don’t have long hair anymore, but perhaps you can draw it out). Also, I’d like to know more about how you paint your lips. If you line them, use a brush or the lipstick directly, and how you get that nice shape. I have horrible makeup skills and end up looking like Joan Crawford, which isn’t what I’m going for.

I’d love to have detailed pictures of your eye makeup or perhaps a description of the application process.
And I second the question about your lipstick.
