Day 23: Miss Frizzle from The Magic School Bus Today’s hair comes courtesy from that kooky cartoon teacher with the wacky fashion sense. Miss Frizzle!! This is another style where my hair is actually already this texture. So all I needed to do was throw it up in a messy situation with bobby pins.

Day 22: The Cowardly Lion from The Wizard of Oz Dorothy isn’t the only one with fabuloufabulous hair. Once the gang hits the Emerald City the Lion gets a primo makeover. Since my hair is already lionish curly, all I needed was to add this adorable red bow.

Day 20: Sally from The Peanuts Sally has always been my favorite Peanut! Precocious little sister to Charlie, perpetual stalker of poor Linus. She’s hilarious. Her hair, however, proved difficult.

Day 20: Emma Woodhouse from Emma I am a nerd for many, many things. Most of them obvious in the nerdiverse, like Star Wars and Buffy. But I am also a nerd for Jane Austen and this 1996 film adaptation is a particular favorite. Starring Gwyneth Paltrow as Emma Woodhouse and Jeremy Northam as the…

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…
