From time to time people post upside down pics - oddly enough, all the ones I've seen until now showed feet with red nail polish :lol: (Tresses and Teazel :waving: )

Here's mine. Do you have a pic like this? I think they're so funny!

No red nail polish but there is a speck of purple polish on my big toe D: I need to repolish my toes clearly.

Great pics! I love the composition of yours, Queenie, very arty - and very pretty hair too. :) Almandine, what gorgeous colour and waves! Teazel, you've got a whole curtain of hair around you! Plus, more bang for your buck with the shadow in there. ;)

Are feet a pre-requisite for upside down hair photos? ... or is it rather difficult not to take a pic without feet in it? (Not that I don't love the feet too. :p I'm just curious ...)

Queenie

I don't think I managed to get one without feet (or it looked too odd). This one has been a while though, might try a new one next wash :)

Both. :D I think the feet are a very important part - especially with red nailpolish! :silly:

Come on, April, where's your photo? :wink:

I have a picture like that! I simply put my camera against my forehead hehe

This is what it looks like when it is drying from being washed, unmanipulated, my hair just does that spiral thing *grin* I love it:

I did it right out of the shower (when my hair hangs the most) and leaned against the wall so my back was arched more. I had to do it quickly because my hair starts shrinking right away :laugh: but I managed it, and my longest layer is only at midback (right below bra strap).

Difficult, but do-able! ;)

I tried to take some pictures but I don't think they turned out very good. :? I probably just need to turn off the flash (but our camera is a little broken right now. The screen isn't working, but it is still taking pictures). In the pictures the hair on top is more visible then the hair at the bottom. They were also blurry. Maybe I can try again another time. I like all your pics though! :)

May 27th, 2009, 09:34 PM
Mine's a bit out of control from taking it down from a dutch braid...and my feetses are sooo far away. So I took the liberty of getting a close-up of my polished piggies for ya (hey I put a lot of effort into them yesterday evening :) ). There's no red, but I think I have every OTHER color covered.
