friday five: hair & also tropes
Thursday, 22 January 2026 20:09two posts in one, I'm feeling anxious chatty tonight!
friday five post here.
1. What type of hair do you have? (Thin, Normal, Thick, Frizzy, etc.)
I don't speak hair so I may be using the wrong words but I'll say thick, very frizzy, and with way too much volume. I have thinning scissors at home and use it every 2~3 months otherwise even tying my hair gets impossible... it's also sort-of-curly-but-not-really. a chaotic wavy. my hair wanted to be curly but failed the curly auditions, the curls never had their proper debut.
2. What color is your hair currently?
natural color... brown? chestnut brown? too long in the sun and it gets a little dark blondish?
3. What colors have you dyed/highlighted your hair?
in high school I had red tips, then dyed my hair red - wine red, I didn't bleach it first so it was a dark shade of red. after college I bleached it (at home!!!?) and dyed it "blue" but it ended up green instead LOL which was fine, I liked the green. then later I dyed it black to cover the leftover dye, and never dyed it again.
4. If you could dye your hair any color, what would it be?
I've been dreaming of dyeing it red again but THIS shade specifically. the helly r. hair color!!!
kinda curious to go blond too someday but I know it wouldn't look good, so lol
5. What is your hair's length?
a palm past my shoulders? a lot longer if straightened.
now for the tropes! I saw![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
greetingsfrommaars post and loved the tropes tier list maker.
a while back I was way more into crossovers but I think I've burned out on them a bit. unrequited love is awesome, I just think mutual pining is better so that's why that one is one tier below. love triangle is a big no BUT polyamory ot3 is a big YES. royalty au is usually a historical au in my fics because modern royalty sounds kinda stupid but rwrb was fun, so I guess I can enjoy both things separately too.
