The Urban Turban.


Does your fringe do this when it's in a pony tail?

Or maybe it looks like this?

After some much needed styling, you could probably get it to look like this..

But without a suave expression, it usually ends up looking like this..

Which makes people think you look like this..

You could just sweep it all the way over but you have may have uncooperative hairs like this..

And then they all follow suit and you look like this..

You can choose to rock the Elvis look..

But only if you don't intend on moving at all, all day..

Coz we all know that as soon as you tilt your head, it WILL fall back to this..

After suffering from this problem for the last six months I tried all different things.

I straightened my fringe daily (which caused it to break slightly after a month) then I tried headbands (which caused a constant headache) so after playing around with one of my lightweight scarves, I got this:

An "Urban Turban" as I like to call it.

Very easy to do..

Very slimming to the face..

And it's SUPER funky.

But the best thing is, you hair doesn't have to be done at all.
You could have towel dried hair, dirty hair, unruly hair or perfect hair but your sick of the standard styles you've been doing.

I put my hair in a bun or a pony tail, wrap my turban like a headband and away I go.
I think you should try it the next time your having a bad hair day!

Fantastian = Fantastic + Asian.


I love Asian things. 

I love the food, the fact they bedazzle anything they can get their hands on, the Hello Kitty obsession, the awesome toys, clothes, the technology/gadgets, hair styles, jewelery, photobooths and makeup. 
I even love their fake eyelashes..! 

It's just a huge obsession for me that I didn't really know I had until recently. It became really obvious that I am really into the Asian scene when I found blogs of Asian models, I think they were Japanese and they were freakin hot! They always had perfect airbrushed makeup, always a different hair colour and always wearing a weird but awesome outfit. 

I literally sat there for hours just looking through their photos and saving photo, upon photo, upon photo. Talk about inspiration!! 

I can't wait to move to Italy because I know there will be some fantastic Asian stores in the UK (which is only a half hour plane ride away). I just hope I feel more comfortable walking into Asian fashion stores in the UK, than I do in Australia. 

I dunno why I feel so nervous when I go there. I just feel like they are always judging me. I feel like they are talking about me or saying I'm a try hard and it eventually gets me so paranoid that I end up leaving within 2 minutes! Even leaving doesn't feel like an option sometimes because that makes me think that if I leave without buying something, they are going to say I'm a tightass or a poser/time waster. 

To get rid of this paranoid delusional state, I've come to the conclusion that I need to learn some Asian phrases. Not enough to walk up to someone and have a full blown conversation but enough that I know certain keywords that will either make me feel comfortable (less stress) because I know they are talking about a tv show or a cheating boyfriend OR I'll know they are in fact bad mouthing me so I can give them an evil look and walk out haha. 

I know it sounds stupid and I shouldn't care but it gets to me.  

I also know there are a lot of different Asian languages but I'd like to at least give it a try.

Can anyone help me with this? 

If you are of Asian descent, don't take offense to this post and please don't interpret this as a racism issue. It's just me being paranoid and curious. 

PS - If any Asian chicks are in fact reading, why do you have to be so damn intimidating?! =p
