Hiya everyone! Tonight I have the pleasure of showing you my Part 2 of Hair Fair 2016 gifts, very thoughtfully offered by many of the amazing hair creators from around the grid. The hair fair covers several sims, tonight's gifts are all from Backlot West on the sim called Osmium, with direct links to each display borrowed from the official Hair Fair blog. I figured it would make it easier than just saying hey, here's a free hair, now go wander 4 crowded laggy sims to find it for yourself ;) And now I whisk us off to the wondrous world of hair gifts...
My first style of the evening is the adorable free gift from Amacci Hair called Zip Duo, and this includes a HUD with 10 different colors for each half of the hair, none of the colors being repeated, so your hair will definitely have that fun split color look. I very much enjoyed the color choices, along with the style itself having almost an anime feel to it.
Speaking of anime, these bright colors also put me in that mindset. This is actually two different gifts, with the hair on the left being the Sophie Hair in Unicorn Ombre, courtesy of [NANI]. Their take on the classic bob has those soft waves on the end, a fun contrast to the sleek bangs. On the right, you can see the free gift from Sintiklia which is just the buns which can be added to any hair. They come with several HUDs (miscs, blondes, browns, pastels, and reds) and can be edited so you can adjust them as you wish. They are an inventive gift since they are so versatile :)
This one certainly made me think of anime as well, turning it into an accidental running them so far. This stunning 'do is our free gift from Curious Kitties called Nyanotech Hair [Type B] Eihmao. The colors are delightful, and the chopsticks have great details in those flowing ribbons and the crystals that are in perpetual motion as pretty pendulums. This style is ideal for roleplay but also just for a playful change of pace.
Tameless has a free gift for us as well, their Nancy in Naturals with its floaty flexi ponytails. There is something very soft and feminine about this look, and the included HUD lets you select from 30 color choices and there are buttons for color 1 or roots. On the left is without, the right is with roots, and they both have nice dimension to the texture.
One last gift for tonight, we have a dollarbie found at the enVOGUE booth consisting of a wonderful trio of color combinations for their Jasmine Ombre hair. They are simply named A, B, and C, and I've shown those left to right in that order. I actually found myself most drawn to C, to the point where I think I audibly gasped when I tried it on :) I think it suits the skin I'm wearing really well, and those peekaboo bangs are a terrific touch.
Clothing note of the night: I picked up a charming $1L hunt prize at Sevyn East from the Flirty Summer Hunt, their gift being this romper in system layers with appliers for Maitreya/Belleza and an Omega HUD. Just look for a cute little crab, he's a flat prim, and claim him for just one linden to get this great summer outfit.
It was generally a good day, the ENT (ear, nose, & throat specialist) doc gave me a clean bill of health from those infections a couple weeks ago, whew! He is concerned about the severity of my allergies and that I don't regularly take an antihistamine, so he prescribed one that I am considering. I also fought with the Pokemon GO servers, that conked out as soon as I got near several pokestops that had lures on them >.< For non-pokemon fans, that means there was something set out at a place that gives prizes, that attracts extra critters to be caught as well as those goodies every 5 minutes. Think of it like finally getting into a crowded SL event, then losing power or internet. Frustrating! On a lighter note, at least I resisted the urge to call this post Hair Fair 2: Electric Boogaloo ;) Meanwhile I hope you are all having a great day/evening, magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! I finally lagged my way into the Hair Fair, hehe, and since it is their 10th anniversary celebration, every vendor has a free gift set out for us to enjoy. So it was well worth the crowd and the lag! You have until the 26th to get there, so things may settle down a tiny bit eventually. I want to go back and make a donation at one of the kiosks, as this wonderful charity event raises money for Wigs For Kids each year as you can see on the Hair Fair website. Since the fair covers 4 sims, I am focusing on one at a time, so tonight you will be seeing gifts from the Blonde Sim.
One terrific thing is that the designers aren't limited to the gifts being specifically hair, so the dress you see here is the gift from Decoy called Cosima Dress- Pink Lemonade. My hair is an adorable style from Cheveux and has a built in resize script. I chose a side view pose so you could see the cute ponytail wrapped in a braid, and that pretty color.
This awesome hair is a very generous gift from Analog Dog, in a bevy of colors and HUDs for each with fades and solid colors. There are 3 different styles of bangs, or you can wear without for a fourth look. The colors included are: blacks, dark blondes, dark browns, dark reds, light blondes, light browns, light reds (one shown), and splash.
The previous style put me in mind of Ariana Grande's hair, this one reminds me of Lorde, so apparently I have pop music on my mind which is odd since I'm more of a classic rock girl ;) This sexy tumble of curls is the gift from Damselfly and is called Livley, with a Mixed HUD for 25 color choices including some fun fades like the one shown. Fantastic!
I changed dresses to show you the gift from ISON, which based on the name seems to be just for the hair fair so if you like it, be sure to get it there :) There is a HUD with 3 texture choices, which you will see in the next photos as well. I am enjoying one of the many colors of the Murray hair gift, Catherine in the complete pack, so that includes 5 shades each of black, dark blonde, dark brown, light blonde, light brown, platinum, and red. The red 03 is shown, and the style is as striking as the color. The sunglasses are yet another gift from the Hair Fair, they are from Lelutka and are named Glare Sunglasses. I thought they looked very elegant with this hair style.
Little Bones has a wonderful gift out for us to enjoy, this is called Pogo and comes with the Duo Tone color HUD so you can pick from 10 choices of color combos including the two shown. Some have roots like on the left, while others are completely split in color from root to tip like on the right. Either way they are stunning! This comes in sizes L, L+, S, and S+, so one of those sizes will hopefully suit you just right.
Here you get to see a third HUD choice from my dress, and three randomly chosen hairstyles from the really fun gift from Curious Kitties! They packed in about a dozen hairstyles and several HUDs so you can play around and see what does what. I am showing from left to right: Lemoria V3, Cherry Bob V3, and Cyaolick V3. That last one, when I first tried it on all I could think was, "WHOA, I'm Rainbow Dash!!!" :)
Nail note of the night is simple, as I elected to stick with the newest group gift from Hello Dave that I blogged yesterday. Same skin as yesterday too, easy peasy. The lag at the Hair Fair really did a number on my somewhat moody computer, hehe, so I focused on the gifts and am hoping to let them shine.
What a day, there was a local classic & antique car show that my family was interested in, so I got to visit a farmer's market and see some amazing vehicles from at least 6 different decades, really remarkable the dedication that goes into keeping those beauties running! It was at a very popular park for dog walking, so I got to see so many precious pooches roaming around enjoying the sunny day, that made it well worth the time out in the heat. I hope everyone has had a lovely day/evening, and magpie hugs to all of you!!
