30 Days of Nerdy Hair
Day 18: Princess of Aurora from Sleeping Beauty Today’s is one of my favorite Disney princesses. Though not my very favorite (hint: brunette, blue bow, reads a lot.) But ‘Hail to the Princess Aurora,’ none the less! To create this Disney perfect hair, I used my straightener to create curls facing towards my face. Then…

Day 18: Padme Amidala from Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones I know, I know. You’re thinking ‘she calls herself the Nerd in the City and she chooses hair from the prequels?’ But have no fear, Leia is still on the way. And guess what, whatever the prequels are to you, they still…

Day 17: Pippi Longstocking Today’s inspiration is the strongest little girl who ever could lift a horse. Pippi Longstocking. This one is tricky. And really has no real world application. But if you happen to be at the beach with your family and care not about impressing people then having pigtails that stick straight out…

Day 16: DJ Tanner from Full House This one is gonna take you back, especially if you are a teen of the 90’s like me. Scrunchies, teased bangs. It was all there! And DJ Tanner was one of the fashion front runners for such trends. I don’t have short bangs so I teased what I…

Day 15: Kaylee Frye from Firefly If you are a nerd then you know the heartbreak of the cancellation of Firefly. The brevity of a mere season and a movie. Nerds around the world feel the pain of this injustice. In honor of this favorite among the nerd perauasion, I chose Kaylee Frye played by…

Day 12: Allie Hamilton from The Notebook Today I chose that weepy romance, The Notebook. You know the one. Women love it, men love to pretend they’ve never seen it! (We all know you saw it… and that you cried!) This one is all about the perfectly curled bangs. I used my strightener to add…

Day 10: Legolas from The Lord of the Rings trilogy Legolas from The Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit is my choice for today. With the release of the new Hobbit 2 trailer, I am very excited to see Orlando Bloom return to his role as Legolas. This one is pretty simple. Start…

Day 9: Daisy Buchanan from The Great Gatsby Today I chose Daisy Buchanan from Baz Luhrman’s The Great Gatsby. Played by Carey Mulligan. To create this look I pinned all of my hair back into a low bun and then shaped the front to resemble a bob. I curled my bangs to the side and…

Day 8: Catwoman from The Dark Knight Rises Today’s hair-spiration comes from the newest Batman franchise. Specifically Anne Hathaway’s Selina Kyle/ Catwoman. Sadly I couldn’t wear the cat ears with this today because I have to sell wedding dresses to brides. And frankly, I don’t think they’d appreciate my effort at authenticity. So I wore…

Day 7: Nefertiri from The Mummy Returns Today’s inspiration is Nefertiti from The Mummy Returns. But I am sad to say it did not come out the way I wanted. I chose the wrong accessory. The gold color worked but the overall effect of this headband is more Greek goddess than Egyptian princess. Sad news.…
