30 Days of Nerdy Hair
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. And is a case of inspiration over imitation. I started off with rolling my hair into knots before bed last night. Like I did for…

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: 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 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…
