Hiya everyone! Tonight I have some gifts to show you from the Hair Fair, which is open until the 1st of September. There are 3 sims of displays from very talented and generous hair designers, and at least 15% of each sale is donated to Wigs for Kids. The charity provides kids with cancer or alopecia with wigs to help their self-esteem, and those wigs can also help prevent bullying from other kids too. There are donation kiosks on all the sims if you wish to give a set amount of lindens directly to the cause. I made a purchase and a tiny donation since I believe that every little bit helps. Many designers offer gifts for visitors, either for free or a very small cost, and that is what I'm sharing tonight. All of tonight's gifts can be found in the Blonde sim.
Before diving into the hair, let me tell you about my dress...it is a lucky board gift from -siss boom- that doesn't require a group tag to claim. There are several boards with different prizes, including this beautiful Motion Ocean Dusty strapless dress. It comes in standard mesh sizes as well as Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique versions. Quick note: the designer observes the Sabbath and the store is closed from Friday sundown to Saturday sundown in her time zone, so you might need to wait until Sunday to visit. As for my hair, this is the gift from Exile called Vera Hair Fair Gift. It includes a fatpack HUD with a whopping 150 color choices, and you can click the hair itself to resize it. Their alluring Lily style for sale is the one I purchased while there, as a fun side note :)
Next I couldn't resist showing you the playful [KoKoLoReS] Hair - Easton gift, a shaggy style that includes a fatpack HUD with 192 total choices. That is an impressive array of options, and there is a tinting feature on the HUD too.
Mello&Moth is offering their Midnight Fatpack as a Hair Fair gift, and it is a terrific style that in brunette somehow reminded me of Kate Beckinsale. There are versions with and without materials, and each of those has a 'boobs' size for more generous chests. There is a color HUD with 50 choices, and a separate tinting HUD so you can even fine tune those if you wish.
Another display on the Blonde sim that has a free gift for us is that of Sintiklia, who are offering their Hair Safire - Colors&pastels roots. It has 3 fitted breast sizes, and 2 unrigged bangs add-ons, both of which can be seen above. The style HUD has 4 versions so you can wear either side behind the shoulder or both in front, or both behind. As for colors, we have 20 vibrant choices like the two I am showing here. The loose waves are a delight of a style.
My final look this evening comes from Tameless, their gift called Wendy Mega Pack. There are several hairs included each with and without roots versions and with or without lolas sizes (fades, fantasy, naturals) that each sync with the provided HUD to offer 30 texture choices for that particular hair. I'm wearing fantasy on the left and naturals on the right. There is plenty of variety to enjoy here with this charming style.
Whew, it has been a busy couple of days! I am continuing to have a bit of relief from pain with CBD cream, and it is easier to type when my fingers don't sting or throb with every movement. I have my usual Saturday plans to look forward to, but nothing that should interfere with my blogging for the next several days. Then before we know it, it'll be September and there will be new hunts and events to explore :) I believe there is a certain spinning cube that will be hiding in many of my favorite stores, to torment but reward Twisted hunters, just to name one upcoming hunt. I hope you all enjoy your weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hiya everyone! Tonight I will be showing you some gifts from the Hair Fair 2017, a wonderful SL tradition where hair designers come together and offer selected hairstyles with a percentage of the proceeds going to Wigs For Kids, each style is labeled with the chosen donation percent. I tend to be quite the creature of habit when it comes to my hair, so I love this opportunity to see all these talented creators' work and pick up some new hair for a worthy cause. There are also donation kiosks in each of the 4 sims so you can help out even more if you wish. Tonight I am showing some gifts I found at the Noirette sim, and I highly recommend their very useful guide on their website to track down specific vendors if you don't have time to explore fully. I needed a pretty and versatile outfit to help me show off all these great hairstyles, so I chose an offer at The Liaison Collective (TLC) from Entice. Well, let's peek at the pretties!
My first hair gift is the generous TUKINOWAGUMA *TGW* Razo style, which comes with plenty of color HUDs for any mood or preference. There are 15 shades on each HUD: Blondes 1, Blondes 2, Browns 1, Browns 2, Colors 1, Colors 2, Natural Colors 1, Natural Colors 2, Reds Blacks 1, and Reds Blacks 2. The high pony is braided halfway down, ending in a soft curl, and I am partial to bangs and wisps.
This sharp style is our gift from .EscalateD. called Nadja, and includes a HUD that says 30 Shades of Inferno across the top. There is a section for the main color and one for streaks, with solid colors and tips or ombres like on the right, all in various shades of red.
The gift from NANI is a playful style called Catherine in Dark Brown, with gravity defying spiral curls and pretty peaks of hair framing the face. Such a creative look, and the color is widely flattering.
Here is another photo you will have to give a click to see the full size, to really appreciate the gift from Exile. They have included Evie & Judd in their free gift, this is Evie and both styles work with the included color HUDs: blondes, browns, grayscale, mix 1, mix 2, naturals, natural fusion, reds, wild fusion, and wildcards. While I usually gravitate towards soft reds like the shade on the left, I am totally in love with the rainbow streaks on that middle one! The brunette color is especially pretty on this style too. This is also a good look at that beautiful dress I am wearing, as I mentioned it can be found at TLC (The Liaison Collective) and is called Entice - Island Girl Dress. Each color is $200L individually, or I highly recommend the fatpack for $599L which includes 2 bonus textures for a total of 10. Among the individuals, there are 4 solid colors and 4 tropical varieties with the exotic print on the skirt and a solid tone up top. The bonuses in the fatpack are a sunny yellow solid and a pale blue tropical. My landmark in the credits will bring you directly to their display at TLC, and the mainstore link is in my right sidebar as always :)
Today was fairly busy and productive, and it looks like the next several days will be hectic as well. Probably really hot too, judging by the weather forecast, so I will be hoping to stay cool and calm. I will be showing more Hair Fair gifts for the next few days, and I admit it is comforting to have a clear plan like that :) Meanwhile I hope you're all having a terrific day/evening, with magical magpie hugs to each of you!!

Hiya everyone! The Hair Fair is still going strong, and there are so many generous gifts for their 10th anniversary that I am just spending a few days sharing random sneak peeks of them with you, one sim at a time. Tonight's lovely presents can all be found on the Noirette Sim, and there is a handy dandy map on their blog with a list of stores so you know who can be found where. Well, let's have a look, shall we?
The first gift I'm sharing is not only a beautiful style, but a fun color that really grabs your attention! This is from Clawtooth and is called Misty Day in Plum Forgot, a very clever color name.
This sexy style can be found in the gift from .Olive. and is called the Steamer Hair, this is Satin and it is also included in Nior which is a dramatic black. Both colors come in a size called Bewbies, so it should fit over your mesh enhancements. I love the look of long wavy hair draped over one shoulder.
Alice Project has been wonderfully generous to us, giving us 6 different hairstyles with HUDs to adjust colors and streaks to our liking. The three I am showing from left to right are: Amy Mini Medley, Celeste II Mega Pack, and Poison II Mini Medley. The other gifts included but not shown are called Angelique Mini Medley, Indigo Mini Medley, and Julie Mini Medley. On the left, on Amy, I didn't use the streak option but I added another prize altogether; those adorable kitty ears are actually the gift from Mystic Tiger and come with a HUD for 5 different ear/band colors. It would work nicely with a wide variety of styles.
This sassy style is going to get a great deal of wear, as it happens to come in my preferred auburn with that pretty fade to nearly blonde. This gift is courtesy of Mithral and is named Magnesium, and also comes in a Busty size for those who need it. Please take note of my lovely earrings, well the one you can see, as they are the anniversary gift from eXxEsS. They come in light and dark, the light are shown and the dark is nearly black, very elegant.
This stunning style is our gift from Exile, called Jack or Jill All or Nothing. The first half of the name references the good news that there is a Jack male version included along with the Jill for the ladies, and the All or Nothing is the plethora of HUDs included for just about any color you can imagine! On the left I am showing the Prism color from the Wild Fusion 2 HUD, on the right is Teak from the Browns HUD with color streaks from one of the dots that surround each color circle. Play with the HUDs and have fun finding your favorite colors or combinations. The included HUDs are Fantasy 1, Fantasy 2, Grayscale, Natural Fusion 1, Natural Fusion 2, Naturals, Reds, Wild Fusion 1, Wild Fusion 2, and Wildcards, soooo many to enjoy!
Our final look this evening is a very cute style for summer, Despina Mega Pack from Tameless. There are several different hairs (wigs?) included, just pop one on and click it for the menu of specific color choices. Shown is the sandy blonde from the Blondes, and the others are All Colors, Blacks and Whites, Blues and Greens, Browns, Goths, Pinks and Purples, and Reds, each with their own menu of choices. Good news, that headband is color change also so you can match it to your outfit.
My outfit note of the night is that I didn't find any clothing on the Noirette Sim as a gift, so I am wearing a pretty paisley printed dress that is a marketplace freebie from Encore. I figured the strapless style would work best with a wide variety of hairstyles, and the delicate colors and paisley pattern wouldn't distract from the hair but still look pretty. Nails and skin are the same as the previous nights, keeping it simple :)
I hope everyone is having a fun weekend so far! Mine has been hot, hehe, but I really enjoyed my day and I am ready to relax in the air conditioning for all of Sunday ;) Sometimes it's best to just unwind. Magical magpie hugs to all of you!!
