Front Braid Scan
Tuesday, July 20th, 2010 | 53 Comments 
Well I’m never going onto my balcony without my phone again! 
Went out to water the flowers today and the door f*cked up and locked me out! 
I had to wait for an hour in 92°F heat until Mike got home from work!
He saw me and jokingly said “you locked out huh!” When I responded with an honest & whiny “yeeeeeeeeeeeees…” he couldn’t believe it! Haahaaa~
Lesson-learned 
I just laid down on the bench & listened to community gossip going on in the streets below… and the cicadas. Lovely cicadas. 
And an ice cream truck playing Christmas jingles.
I scanned this in from Aug Popteen. It’s how I’ve been wearing my hair nearly every day lately. Braided front bang! Sorry the quality sucks. The hair arranges were on non-glossy, matte paper which scans in crappily.
Funnily enough someone at work today asked if I dyed my hair darker??!! And just after I posted the hair dyes… strange…. 
I stopped using the John Frieda “Sheer Blonde” shampoo + conditioner about a month or so ago. 
Maybe it’s starting to look more dull & less golden now because of that, LOL 
I switched to the John Frieda Root Awakening shampoo + conditioner and was unimpressed. So I bought Shiseido’s Tsubaki stuff again, LOL. It’s been a while since I’ve used it and I’ve always been happy with it… cept the price, LOL.
I finally broke down & ordered a subscription for Popteen & PopSister last week~~
Had to buy Aug Popteen & Sept PopSister on ebay (which is buttr*pe price OMFG…
The situation with my bookstore “moving” the subscriptions was too confusing. I was really worried about paying for them & then having them being accidentally put up for sale because it didn’t seem like everyone was “in the loop.” I dunno.
Actually they’re last day is this week??? And I haven’t been refunded for the remainder of my subscriptions yet. *sinking feeling* :F
I trust them, they’re really honest. I’m just concerned/confused…. 
Anyway.
I went back to fujisan.com! I used them when I lived in Mississippi. They didn’t have PopSister so I asked them if they thought they’d get it in. And the same day they added it to their list!
So you can now order both Popteen & PopSister from them!
Actually, the company behind fujisan’s magazines is the same that sent magazines to the local bookstore LOL. 
In the end they ended up getting money one way or another!
POPSISTER!
Anywho~~ how bout some more coordinate spams (not from me, of course, LOL)…
These are all from Kaorun’s CROOZ Blog. 
She’s a 22 year old store clerk who posts lots of WC item’ed coordinates!

Thanks for the scan! I can’t wait to start using John Freida’s brunette shampoo and shine burst conditioner- been waiting to use it since Christmas HAHA
LOL what took so long? Waiting for the right time? :3
Haha using up other shampoos LoL
I hate locking myself out. I had to crawl in through a tiny window into my house the other day (in high heels and a dress haha)… and ended up with a series of nice looking bruises.
I love the braided bangs. Evey time my fringe starts getting to long I wear them like that.
That’s awful!! Haahaa! I just hated being locked out on my balcony 2 stories up with only 1 entry point *fail.*
LOL, i know exactly how you feel. i locked myself out so many times :( i thought i finally learned my lesson until this year when i started dorming and locked myself out AGAIN D: my hall mates had to break into my room by popping the screen door open. good times. hah~
Haahaa omg, thank god for communal living!!
Aww…poor thing! But yeah, at least you had the calming sound of the cicadas. (It’s just not summer without them, right?? lol too much Japan influence…
Front braid is adorable! Just got a trim today, but when they grow out a little more, I’ll try it too! Damn, hope you get your subscription fuss all straightened out! They at least need to refund you!! ‘ - ‘ ;;
Ah, reading this reminded me I need to find the receipt to my subscriptions.
Yea, here late summer is when the cicadas come out~ I grew up with them being all summer long in MS but in DC it’s only about 1~2 months of them, sadly.
o-oh…i originally read this title as “FRONT BRAIN SCAN” and was like ‘wtf could she be talking about…? maybe something with dr. who…??’
SAVING THAT BRAIDING TUTORIAL SCAN kthx o3o
It’s OK, I typed it up & it still looks like brain scan to me too LOL
Oooh, I should look into getting a subscription of Popsister through fujisan.com,
if my bookstore won’t carry them!
I’ve been waiting to see if they’d get it, but so far no luck… -o-;;
Ah! I haven’t read my aug issue of popsister yet!
*runs to find it*
Too bad my bangs are too short to braid though! Drats..!
Haha, my friends and I were ALL locked out of my house one time a few years ago…
(All there to practice for some dance choreography for gym-class)
We had to run all the way down my street to anothers friend house to wait until my mom got home…!
It was funny though! ^^b
Hmmm I haven’t seen the braided front bang before. Looks interesting.
Hopefully you didn’t get sunburn from sitting out too long in the heat.
Thankfully it’s shaded!
yeah i use shiseido conditioner too
it’s the BOMB
i hate how it’s like 3x the price of it in japan
wtf
I know right =_=;;
lol i remember trying to french brain my bangs but for some reason i can’t. gigantic fail, i cant even braid that good TTATT
the pics are so nice !!!!!! so many inspiration~
i’ve tried braiding my bangs like that when it was longer but i’m just so bad at it lol! i have to use the tsubaki conditioner. everything else just doesn’t seem to make my hair soft.
Omg Kaorun’s style is so cool. I REALLY want some WC stuff now
. I’m just loving those overalls! Does WC make short overalls now too? It’s so cute!
I think girls are cutting the overalls into skirts. It sounded like from her entry a friend did it or something? I’ve seen it on another girl too but doesn’t seem like they’re being sold that way LOL. I think girls are cutting them so they can wear them in summer, haahaa, I dunno
ahh i remember the time i got locked out when i was little.
very bad experience indeed especially when you’re in a hospital :(
i tried braiding my bangs a few times. but i never have the courage to wear it out.
i don’t really like my forehead or maybe it’s coz i’m too used to myself with bangs and without it i’ll always feel like there’s something missing.
but Jenny you on the other hand look gorgeous with bangs or braided bangs =D
Aw you’re nice to say that~~ I sorta still feel paranoid without bangs but someone at work said it was nice to “see my face” and I blurted out “you mean my giant forehead!” LOL
ahhhhh poor you! i’ve only been locked out of hotel rooms
D
i cant seem to braid my bangs right.. it always comes out with really small braids… do you have the same problem too? or is it just me ^^
It depends on your hair thickness basically. This girl has extensions so she’s able to get a thicker braid in front =Y
Awe, poor Jenny!!
I’m glad it wasn’t storming or anything at least!
You are so lucky you can get away with the bangs braided hair arrange~ it looks lovely on you ♥
& I noticed that girl’s snaps on your tumblr & meant to ask you who she was~ LOVE LOVE EVERYTHING SHE HAS ON~!! ♥♥
I know! It looked like it was gonna rain but it passed LOL
Aww that sucks about getting locked out! My grandma locked me out of the house the other day when I was at the pool. It was 95+ out x_x Luckily I had a spare key outside *phew!*
Thanks for the Fujisan link!
I’m sorry to hear you locked yourself out! Its happy to me before, by my own doing and once when I a kid because my dad was asleep and wouldn’t open the door. I knew how to break into that house so I didn’t have to get stuck outside. And at my current place in MN I have a garage key. One time the key was missing (my fault) and my mom locked herself out. She actually broke the door down instead of calling a lock smith…now the door doesn’t close quite properly…^^;; haha!
Thank you for sharing the Kaorun spam! She modified the tiger shirt into a crop tee….inspiration… I guess I’ll have to go back to W*C soon!
hi hi!!!
i love reading ur blog!!! thank you for posting up the link to fujisan.com, i live in canada and its so hard trying to find a shop that carries Japanese mags.
i found a shop in my chinatown that carries like 3 brands of jap mags, and i saw a popteen cover so i bought it. *FAIL* i totally failed to notice that it was translated into CHINESE!!! it had less pages than the real popteen bcuz my friend had came back from Japan and brought mags with her and she said there were alot of missing pages! GAHHH -__-
so THANK YOU so so so much for letting us (deprived) ppl know about this site!!!
um… just a little question tho, on the site wen u order, it says ‘amount’. does that mean number of months? or subscription years?
O__o
Thanks!!!
Well thanks for visiting my blog! Glad I could help. The numbers are for magazine amount (issue number.) When you buy 1 you’re basically subscribing until you email them that you no longer want to subscribe. They charge each month as they ship out the magazine (and not all at once upfront.)
Hope that helps!
Yes that helped ALOT!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Hello Jenny!
Thank you so much for the braid scan! LOL, everything about that braid makes sense to me now xD Anyways, I noticed your tweet about pamprin. I have horrible PMS D; I have pounding head aches, cramps, and worst of all nausea. I find that taking ibuprofen/midol/pamprin a week or two before my cycle reduces/stops my pms symptoms! I know you didn’t ask for any advice, but I just wanted to put this out there because I know how miserable a cycle can make a girl! I hope I didn’t offend you by making this comment ;_;
I think you’re really nice and I appreciate you commenting that here & for your concern! I’ve never tried that, but I’ll be sure to try it next month since it couldn’t hurt! Usually my cramps aren’t so bad but the past few times they’ve been bad :(
Do you take like 1 a day for a week before?
You should take it once a day the week before :3
I like that cover of PopSister! Her eye make is fantastico!
I do my front braiding a little differently but I’ll be sure to try this one out *A*
Yea I’ve seen a couple of different ways actually~~~
ohh~~ i want to try that tutorial some time..
ALSO… is the weather REALLLYYYYYYYY that bad?? I’m scared to live in the south a little bit.. Is it SUPER humid??
I feel like it’s going to be a complete culture shock because I have only lived in CA and MA… o__o
help meee!!! nuuu ;__;
I wish I could sugar coat this… but yeah, the humidity is BAD. Like wall of water bad. But on the flip side winter’s are so mild you can wear flip flops year round.
As for culture shock it depends on where you move as to how “shocking” it’ll be. The coastal area will be the least amount of shock. It’s the better place to live (LOL coming from a Mississippi Gulf Coast girl.) If you’re moving to a bigger city (lol I use the word ‘bigger’ generously) it shouldn’t be too, too different, but if you’re moving out to the sticks it’s gonna probably be REALLY different from what you’re used to.
Basically… it’s different. It’s as different as everybody says it is. But if you have internet you’ll be fine, people are genuinely nicer in the south and you’ll find people to connect with. You’ll be OK *pat pat*
Haha I love you! This made me feel a lot better! I moving to Auburn, AL so it’s a college city… I think I’ll be ok ^ ^ Thank you so much for the info hun!
Oh no, locking out is sooooo no! Hope you’re fine again! :-)) Is it really that hot in DC, too?? I thought it was just Northern and Middle Europe suffering atm under the heat .
Thanks for sharing those lovely coordis fotso, the really inspiring! I decided to be more brave regarding fashion once I’m in Japan, to assimilate with the fashioanbel girls there! :-)
Yea it’s like record breaking heat hot this year ;_;
ah i love your posts! i must try this hairstyle!
btw… i have a relative who FELL on her balcony and couldn’t get up and then just died out there!
Dear god are you serious? That’s… HORRIBLE! o_o;;

I’m glad you like the magazine!
I can’t help but giggle reading about you getting locked out. I’m sorry but the image is funny. lol. Thanks for the hair tutorial! I get so excited every time you post one up. I’m learning how to style hair these days.
LOL no worries~~
Thanks for the braid scan! I tried to do it to my bangs. Didn’t turn out too well, but meh, it was cute!
Yeah, i would be a bit concerned as well. Were the owners Japanese?
I know I’m getting old when 22 sounds so young to me :/ Damn young people with their youth
I’m glad you got your subscriptions sorted out. I stopped getting my fave magazine about a year ago. I really need to find a good one to get hooked on again.
wow you girls really looks sooooooo kawaii~
