30 Days of Nerdy Hair
Day 14: Torrance Shipman from Bring It On Today is travel day and I needed something easy and off my face. So I chose the quintessential high school cheerleader movie from 2000. I was a high school senior when this movie came out and Kirsten Dunst was the perfect peppy cheerleader. Anyone remember this cheer?…

Day 13: Mary Ann from Gilligan’s Island What could be more American on this (turning out to be quite nice) 4th of July, than Gilligan’s Island? Classic American television. I chose Mary Ann. Those pigtails and red bows have Independance written all over them! Part the hair into pigtails. Give the ends some twisty, curly…

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 11: Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family ‘They’re creepy and they’re kooky, Mysterious and spooky, They’re all together ooky…’ That’s right it’s the Addams Family. Specifically Wednesday Addams played by Christina Ricci in the 1991 film. Low maintenance and easy. Part your hair in the center and then create tight braids on each side.

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.…

Day 6: Snow from Once Upon a Time Today’s inspiration is from the pilot episode of ABC’s Once Upon a Time. Specifically Snow White played by Ginnifer Goodwin. For this style I left it curly (which is my normal hair texture) then threw it half up and added little flowers I got from Claire’s. Perfect…

Day 5: Lucille Ball from I Love Lucy Today’s inspiration is dedicated to my sister-in-law, Caroline, who love, love, loves I Love Lucy!! Who doesn’t love her though… am I right? In order to accomplish this I wore my hair in little knots to bed last night to create a curlier texture to my hair.…
