New Hair
Having long, straight hair doesn’t require a lot of maintenance. All that’s really required is the use of a great shampoo and conditioner combo. I recommend New York City-based Bumble & Bumble - their products are all I ever use for washing, conditioning and styling.
The only problem with long, straight hair, however, is that one day you wake up and look in the mirror only to find that there’s a mop sitting on top of your head. Bad hair finds you totally unaware and one day - BAM! - it’s there and not going anywhere until you do something about it.
That’s where haircuts come in.
I finally got mine chopped yesterday and it feels amazing again. It’s light and not heavy, and now it actually looks like I want it to look instead of taking on a mind of its own.
If you’re in Vancouver, I recommend The Lounge Hair Studio on Richards street. My usual stylist is tripping around the world so I got hooked up with an uber cute Japanese girl, Mari, who gave my hair a nice cut and a little edge. And, of course, The Lounge sells the complete line of Bumble & Bumble products, so you know a girl like me is in heaven there.
P.S. I’m listening to Definitely Maybe by Oasis right now and I can’t tell you how great it feels to do that on a sunny day like today. I’m off to Davie Day, so expect a report tomorrow or later today.
* Update: Davie Day sucked. Lots of vendors, cheaply-made wares for sale and more BBQ booths than is really necessary. I stayed for maybe 20 minutes.

Ugh. I love Bumble & Bumble. Well, their Surf Spray.
I just got about 8 inches cut off my hair after about a year of neglect, and I forgot how good a great haircut can be.
Love the new cut! I’m a major Bumble whore too. I managed a hair salon for years and brought the line in exclusively- besides getting to sell and use the amazing products every day, I also got the opportunity to attend classes at their famed B&B University in New York…fabulous experience. They are a very unique company with incredible products and have made huge strides forward in terms of editorial styling.
Hey, I just got a new hair cut myself! And it was by a ubber cute Japanese girl too!
Of course than I guess living in Tokyo makes the probability of that happening a hell of a lot higher
davie day did suck!
No matters, Keira.
It is not your hair, what immagines you.
