i’ve been waiting, i’ve been holdin’ out

xx You know what’s fun? When you have the guts to take two hairs–hairs that have graciously had modify permissions granted to them–and the patience to play with different ways of combining those two hairs. See, I’ve had these two hair styles that I really like sitting in my inventory for a while, but I wasn’t sure how or when to wear them. One hairstyle was “Amelia” from fri.day, and the other was “Again” from [elikatira]. Both are gorgeous hairs. Yet something about both hairs, probably due to the shape of my avatar’s face, bugged me. So finally, the other day, while I was bored and doing absolutely nothing because absolutely nothing seemed to be going on, I felt inspired to drop several of my short hairstyles on a rezplat in some random sandbox and see what I could do to make the Amelia hairstyle more, well, likeable to wear for me.

xx At first I tried combining another hair from fri.day (due to the same hair colors not needing to be recolored to try to match), but no amount of fussing I had the patience to do could get me to feel pleased by the haphazard result of my prim-moving  / copying / removing / whatever. But then I thought…I really like the bangs from [e]’s Again. So why not?

xx I did it. I removed the bangs from Amelia and stole away the bangs, as well as several hair strands framing the face, from Again and stuck the two then-incomplete hairpiece clusters together to create a now-complete hairdo. With a bit of recoloring on Again‘s part, I daresay the end result is quite likeable. In fact, I really like it, and it’s not even drastically different from the original product.

xx Anyway, story time is over. Don’t hurt me for rambling!
