View Full Version : I saw a picture of a member on this forum with the most beautiful hair I've ever seen

and I kept going on and on to my friend about how she would absolutely faint if she saw it. I thought I remembered her username, but obviously not. Her hair's about hip length, long straight brown, and she was very beautiful and looked a little like Bjork. She looked to be in her mid 20s? The pictures I saw were professionally taken. haha I don't mean to sound like a stalker, but that was my dream hair picture and now I lost it! Does the description ring a bell to anybody?

Thank youu!:)

Hmm... That description sounds familiar... Bet I know who it is...

misstwist
May 25th, 2009, 10:32 PM
Me too.

Darkwaves, how many strands is that braid in your siggy?

May 25th, 2009, 10:35 PM
okay, now you guys have ME curious, I don't recall a picture like that at all...who is it?

Nat242
May 25th, 2009, 10:43 PM
I have an idea, but I think that the member should ID themselves, if they so choose.

I think I know who you're talking about........she looks a little.....elven? ;)

Moonstruck
May 25th, 2009, 10:52 PM
I know who you're thinking of, Manderly, and I think she's it! Haha.

...I mean, I think she looks like a Viking. ::giggles::

Sorry AlisaB, we're not trying to be cryptic to be rude, we just want to keep her privacy. I will PM my guess and let her know that there is a thread that is possibly about her. She can then respond if she wishes, and you can see if she's the one you're talking about. :flower:

AlisaB
May 25th, 2009, 11:29 PM
wow, now I realise I really shouldn't have posted this... Sorry if I'm embaressing whoever the picture belongs to. I've just never seen anybody with hair like that and I want to show it to my friend so she get's what I'm talking about. Yes, she does look elven. -runs and hides-

manderly
May 25th, 2009, 11:31 PM
No no no, don't worry. It's nothing to be ashamed of, just something we don't toss around with brand new members. I'm sure you understand. :flower:

Anywho, I PM'd her and let her know you were looking for her.

AlisaB
May 25th, 2009, 11:57 PM
Thanks, Manderly. No, I definitely went overboard. Apologies again.

SheWolf

FWIW, if it is who I think it is, she truly has uncommonly dropdead gorgeous hair. :)

I know exactly who you're talking about, and she is gorgeous, isn't she? XDD

Unfortunately there's creepy types out there... something you don't really think of when you're new... (it only recently occurred to me...!)

AlisaB
May 26th, 2009, 01:10 AM
yeah I think I confused a hair forum with yahoo answers :o . if she responds I think I'm going to have to post a picture of myself to make it even, because now there's way too much pressure on her. I took it too far with the physical comments. New or not I don't have the right to make those kinds of judgements about anybody. It's just been a very weird day...

hennaphile
May 26th, 2009, 01:34 AM
I'm sure she's tickled pink with your compliment. The other eency objection I can think of is that it kind of implies that the rest of us don't have the most gorgeous hair in the world.

Honestly I think it's a tossup with all the folks here :D

jera
May 26th, 2009, 01:45 AM
Now you've got me curious too. I only know one member who looks like Bjork and her hair is awesome. Could this be who you're talking about? :confused: Hmnnn..

Um, yes, privacy is important, but i think the person you were writing about just goto ne of the loveliest compliments of her hair-life :D

Dear ...., if you decide to accept the compliment, please post a hair pic of yous, because this thread got me and a few others extreeeeemely curious.

May 26th, 2009, 06:53 AM
I have no clue either. I see so much gorgeous hair daily its hard to keep track ;)

ETA: actually I was thinking of the same person as everyone else but she has classic lenth I believe.

Oh unmistakable! But I'm thinking more Shania Twain than Bjork. Knock out hair.

Oh, I bet I know who you are talking about. I get Bjork, but not Shania Twain, so now I'm confused. Lol

Apparently a member made a suggestion on who it might be on the OP's page.

darkwaves
May 26th, 2009, 07:18 AM
I think a Medieval/Viking Elf is a fabulous description for the member I'm thinking of. (Goth? I don't know -- she might be this, too!)

And misstwist, thanks for your question! The siggy braid has five strands. (All that crossing really shortens the length, too.)

AlisaB, don't feel bad. We're enjoying this...

MsBubbles
May 26th, 2009, 07:30 AM

No need to be confused. Just a difference of opinion and I'm sure I'm in the minority in mine.

She has done Viking re-enactment.

...are we not naming names?

wintersun99
May 26th, 2009, 09:26 AM
Jumping on the band-wagon, with a "pretty sure I know who we are talking about too" will be interesting to see if I guess correctly... and for what it's worth, the person I'm thinking about does have amazing hair and is also one of my hair inspirations! :D

Since I am also a newbie, you'll have to forgive me, I think I might just hijack the thread for a split second!....
.....on another board I am on for some of my handicap/illness issues we have a "games" section, since "sickies" like to play games to feel better.....ok, anyways...

I bet that some of you more regular and die hard long hairs are somewhat reckognizeable by your hair, and it might be fun to try a naming game, and post a pic of someone's hair, and see how long it takes to identify the special someone....ok, if no one thinks what I've suggested would be fun, I totally understand. I've spent the whole night wide awake researching hair toys and reading on here, so I am suprised I'm even able to put a complete sentence together....ok back to original thread....

I can't wait to see who it is, their description has me all curious...since I am a newbie I don't know anyone, but I certainly do love looking at the gorgeous pictures! Can't wait to see who this whole thread is about.

I do think of somebody with hair like mirror.
But that hair is definetely hennad,and auburn(or what)

manderly
May 26th, 2009, 10:59 AM
Heidi, tried to respond to your PM but your box is full :)

Here's what i responded:



At first glance her hair can look hip-ish, she has a v-cut. And she has professional photos of her. But who else looks like Bjork, a viking, and and elf? LOL She's gorgeous.

Heck, we could be wrong though Which just ads to the fun. I would be tickled with curiousity if mystery girl reported to the thread and the OP says "no! That's not her!". LOL Then the fun would really start.

Her hair was also one of the first that I noticed after coming back to the hair boards again, I agree that it is spectacular! She is so pretty also

Well, if it's the member I'm guessing it is, I think she'd be recognizable from the OP's description just by her siggy and avatar pics.

I don't know who this mystery person is, as I'm a newbie, but I'm assuming that the person in question does not have a siggy pic, since you put it that way...? Could it be that she has posted a photo in a thread somewhere, and that this was the pic AlisaB saw?

Is it the person who posted on the OPs profile?

Will someone tell me?

Totally dating myself here, but I had to Google Bjork. I was clueless. But a picture is worth a thousand words.

I knew instantly who it is!

And she is both beloved and thudworthy, to say the least!

AlisaB:

Would you care to share with us about YOUR hair and YOUR personal hair goals? :D

Oh my. Well, I’ve had a bit of a trauma hair story in this past little while. My hair is thick, shiny and frizzy with a bit of wave here and there. I’ve been told it’s a very warm brown naturally, so I don’t dye my hair, although I’d die to be a redhead. I had my hair at brastrap length for a while, but after being told by my mom in the grocery store that it looked too childish (I’m 17),I made a split second decision to get it cut with an "actual style" in a nearby middle-of-nowhere mall. Not to discriminate, but the woman was asian and I doubt was experienced in cutting Caucasian hair. Now, my hair is B-I-G, especially when it’s short. I left with a mullet, so you can imagine how upset I was. The top layers looked like some kind of circular dome around my head, while the longer bottom later was so thin it just hung there, totally limp. Needless to say, I had bad hair days for the next couple of months. After getting so fed up of trying to find a way to style it just so it’d look normal, I gave in and got a perm just on the bottom layer to try and even up the volume. Again, I didn’t get what I wanted. I was praying for beautiful, flowing, big spiral curls that looked Hollywoodesque after I was reassured that my hair wouldn‘t be damaged at all. I left with brittle corkscrew curls only on the very ends. It did look better than after the initial big chop, but the damage was just too much. That was when I switched to a natural hair care routine. No ‘cones, no sls. It’s been about 6 months since I got the pern, and my hair finally grew back to brastrap length. Last week I got it cut again by a really nice and talented woman about 4 inches. Most of it was the weird limp layer and was completely damaged, so I wasn’t too disheartened. I still have this weird ear length layer that I shouldn’t have cut, though. So now my hairs a bit longer than shoulder length, and I’ve taken a liking to sponge rollers and vintage hair styles.

Lessons learned: NEVER perm hair. NEVER get an unplanned/unresearched hair cut.

As for my goals? Well, I’d like to grow my hair out to waist length after slowly cutting out all the perm. I’ve been using a really good jojoba shampoo/conditioner along with coconut oil and my hair looks 10x better than it did. Hopefully within the next year I’ll be able to get the hair I’ve been dreaming about. Cascading curls that are so long they look like they belong to an elven Kim Kardashian. :p

Now, that was worth 25 posts if I do say so myself.

Also, I even had to write it up twice. Apparently the first time I did it I wasn’t signed in. After blowing off some steam I rewrote it. Sorry if I sound a bit angry! :o

Last week I got it cut again by a really nice and talented woman about 4 inches. Most of it was the weird limp layer and was completely damaged, so I wasn’t too disheartened. I still have this weird ear length layer that I shouldn’t have cut, though. So now my hairs a bit longer than shoulder length, and I’ve taken a liking to sponge rollers and vintage hair styles.


Shoulder-ish length is a good length for playing with vintage styles. If you need some inspirations, ideas and tutorials, check out the youtube channels of Super Kawaii Mama, Strawberry Koi Vintage and Elegantly Amused.

It look like it might be one that was taken off the internet lol, but its long brown and completely straight and is so shiny and looks like silk. ALSO, there is two ladies here with dirty blnde hair and their texture is AMAZING. One of them has straight hair in the avatar and the other one is like a curly princess look. I dont know her name it might be like golden something. Then there is another lady with glasses and she just changed her pic but she was standing to the side and her hair is blonde and wavy/curly and its wicked thick and BEAUTIFUL! From the side and the way her hair falls it reminds me of my own hair, but her texture is AMAZING! lol, I must sound like a crazy woman!

I dunno, I don't think it really matters who she looks like more. She seems like a nice person and definitely has her own beauty.

As for the rollers, I just bought the pink 1" goody ones from wal-mart. I use them a different way, mind you (after trying every possible way:rolleyes:). Rather than starting at the bottom of my hair and wrapping the hair around itself, rolling upwards, I bring the roller to my roots and twirl the hair along the roller, then clip it. I also make sure that the curls alternate directions. No, theyre not damaging at all to my hair, which is why I love them. Wish I knew how to use them before I got a perm! Just make sure you use them on dry hair and use a silk scarf if you plan to sleep with them in. Thanks Nat and jera, just trying to ease up on Emichiee a bit

But it's ok if I'm wrong. I Can take it.

Shania is really pretty, more attractive than bjork, the only thing I can relate to with bjork is sort of around the eyes, hig brows, short nose maybe.

Shania looks more like an italian woman to me though, they have balanced features, I still think though that IRL I don't look like her, maybe I just resembled her in one picture? I think the least is the nose, shania actually has a real nose..I just have a pointed stub, no bridge, like an exagerrated Barbie ^^, her eyebrows are lower too..

I just think it is interesting if people say I look like a certain person and I try to see what they see :)

Why do people always compare to celebrities? It's usually based on really superficial resemblances. Just a slight pet peeve of mine. I've been told I look like Amanda Peet, which I guess I do a bit, but that's almost entirely based on the fact that I have round light colored eyes, thick eyebrows and brown hair. I'd rather look like myself, or at least a hodgepodge of different family members' traits, that means alot more to me!

Glasseyes, part of it is that I'm just unusually sensitive to minor differences in faces. Sometimes people say things like "I can't tell them [sisters or even friends] apart" while I'm struck by how different those people really do look. Also, faces that others may consider common or generic can often seem interesting to me because I notice details.

A big, big part of what makes people unique is expression. For example, Emi and Shania have such different auras about them that I don't understand how you could compare them.

I'm like ya ok that person looks NOTHING like me, are you even LOOKING at my face?? Obviously not, its just the stupid red hair again. I also get random people comming up to me and asking me if I am related to so and so on the only basis of my hair color. Are these people alright?

Eurasian: You would not believe the variety within mixed asian people ._. Some look so asian and some you could never tell, some look like Asian with a bit of white and some look more white with a bit of asian, Some 50/50..
But is is just like with every ethnicity - there is more attractive and less attractive people...it is not like "instantly pretty" genes :lol:
Hungary itself is not the Asia yet but it was influenced by asiatic tribes which is why some Hungarians can show slight Asian features. Hungarians belong to the turcic tribes.

People compare other people to celebrities because their famous images are well known to many people. It's a common "databank" of physical features that we can all reference in discussion. :)

I mean, if I told you that you look like my cousin's husband's coworker, that means absolutely nothing to you. :shrug:

Eurasian: You would not believe the variety within mixed asian people ._. Some look so asian and some you could never tell, some look like Asian with a bit of white and some look more white with a bit of asian, Some 50/50..
But is is just like with every ethnicity - there is more attractive and less attractive people...it is not like "instantly pretty" genes :lol:
Growing up on the west coast I've seen a variety of different mixed ethnicities and I've always loved observing the diversity involved. Especially since my own background is homogenous, and therefore boring to me because it's what I'm used to.

I can appreciate what you're saying about it not being "instant pretty" genes. However, I have often noticed that two fairly average looking people that are homogenous to their ethnicity can produce some incredibly stunning children. My pop-psychology-evolutionary-biology take on this is that we're designed to find genetic diversity attractive, because it usually confers better health. :frog:

Then again, I must confess, I might just be particularly (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/member.php?u=5958) biased (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/member.php?u=3637) about the attractiveness of Eurasians in general. :whistle:

Well, it really depends. The Mane Board is probably a bad idea because it's public. I would really recommend doing this in the Community Meets area because that has the most security restrictions. While that does mean that less people can play, more people will feel comfortable showing face pics in there. :twocents:

Ooooh yeah I forgot about her, she is half Chinese and got green eyes also, she's prettier than me though.
I thought she was especially pretty when she still wore her hair more natural, she would have suc gorgeous hair long!
Hm I guess this pic is a similar pose?

And oooh look at her in partition! She also got her natural hair color back! I love the light pieces up front!

The better health reasoning could be true, I would find many types of people attractive though..
I believe that often people with similar face patterns are attracted to each other though, despite the ethnicity..my husband is puerto rican and his face patter is similar when it comes to where what is placed if that makes sense.


My guy friend who's hapa doesn't look either asian or white. It's pretty cool. He's quite handsome in his unusual way....

I knew a Hapa like that too, he looked turkish!

I think that face recognition thing had a fit when I uploaded my picture.

But that's ok - I know who I look like. Elizabeth Taylor - during her fat years!

No she's not! She's pretty, but she doesn't compare to you. I don't think you look much like any of the people mentioned and you're much prettier than all of them.

Why do people always compare to celebrities? It's usually based on really superficial resemblances. Just a slight pet peeve of mine. I've been told I look like Amanda Peet, which I guess I do a bit, but that's almost entirely based on the fact that I have round light colored eyes, thick eyebrows and brown hair. I'd rather look like myself, or at least a hodgepodge of different family members' traits, that means alot more to me!
I would be more than happy if someone even thought I look like Amanda Peet, she's stunning!
I don't see what's wrong with it though, when I come to a new place I always see 'old faces' in the crowd ("Oh and that waiter that looks just like the the kid from the next department..."). So if someones resembles a celebrity, what's the difference. Sometimes it helps to say "the women that looks like reese witherspoon gone bad" rather than "the woman with the matted blond short hair and the black shirt, and a big bag, see her? No the other one, she wears jeans, she has a mascara overkill, see her...?", because there are at least few differenet blonds in dark tops and hidious makeup around. :shrug:

And you look unique, none of the celebs can really compare to you.

So if you were looking for a blackhead..maybe thats it..
She changed the link, it pointed to one of your posts showing a picture of your face :D

This one is kinda gross indeed :rolleyes:

I was thinking it could be that other member who looks kinda like that..

The one who's currently living overseas with her (in the Navy I think) beau.. and trying to grow her hair back out before returning to the states..

She has posted some professional hair pictures she's taken.

Oh me?! :D

This was a super fun thread and it took me FOREVER to think of Emichee :) Her hair IS like a 'chocolate waterfall' (I think manderly said that and it was great!) She is also one of my hair idols and I just marvel at how SHINY her hair is!!

Thanks for mentioning me. :o I feel like one of the 'cool kids' now. LOL

I always get 'OMG you look like that girl from the Notebook!' Rachel McAdams. I don't really see it though. :)

When I did a look-a-like thing online they said I looked like a cross between Delta Goodrem and Grace Kelly. Woo!

oh, emi that video of you and your hair. Your hair is truly shiny and it looks like it might not need that comb at all;) I just wanted to ask you, where did you get that comb from? Looks like a good design.
And of course I knew it was you from the start!;)

Oh, Heavenly Locks, so your husband is in the Navy?
I just thought that story remembered me of something, my husband used to be in the Army and I joined here just before his Iraq Deployment with the intention to grow my hair until he gets back. I went from Midback to Tailbone Length. :)

I got the comb from Japan, a friend sent it to me...but I think you can also order these online. Look for Japanese Boxwood Comb.
