    I used to hate my hair when I was younger because I thought it was too big. Now, I love it. Unfortunately, it lets me done every now and then... I suppose it's what we call bad hair day!

    Very nice post!

    That I-D editorial is so spectacular. Then again, all of the hairstyles at Christian Lacroix were splendid, as well. Who could possibly resist big hair?

    Great post, I want one of those hair donuts to add some old-school glamor to my summer dinner outfits with a big bun. Also that gold crust updo from the Galliano show is so fairytale-like.

    Yay for big hair! I never even leave the house without my teasing comb! I really like the picture on the second row from the bottom on the right. I'm not really sure what's going on in it but I really like it! Like her hair looks really cool and its like half up and half down? And I think she's wearing bunny ears?

    Big hair, I love it! My hair is almost all the way down to my hips, so I really have a lot of hair to work with for crazy hairstyles, the sad part is my hair is just so straight it won't do much, and secondly, I so happen to suck at styling hair. :( But I totally enjoyed looking at all the crazy awesome hair styles in this post, anyway! :D
