hmm, looking at these, i notice a few things -clothes can affect what hairdos are good: the ponytail actually works better with my current shirt than loose hair, but loose works better with other clothes -lighting is v. important, i actually turned my desk around to get better...

...lighting, originally i could barely see my face -wow my posture sucks ass -my selfie game sucks too, unsurprising given these are my 3rd-6th selfies ever (https://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1207374320625799168 …)

alternating between "i cant even tell the difference between any of these hairstyles" and "that is far too much effort" also learning that actually doing things with my hair requires some hardcore proprioception (exhibit a and b of high-effort)pic.twitter.com/kagfuIHZmT

trying some more ponytails the higher ponytail feels weird, tension on different parts of my head. i think it looks a bit better though also a sort of half-ponytail attempt, where i tried to put half of my hair into a ponytail. it knotted up horribly but also looks neatpic.twitter.com/Uaa6yT3R9Y

the half ponytail is going to take some practice i think going through the hairdos, it looks like not having a hair curler/straightener is limiting my options quite a bit, but thats okay for now

so it turns out that different peoples hair acts differently so any given hairstyle is only accessible to some portion of the population i cannot overstate how dumb i feel for not realizing this earlier

a lot of these hairstyles are bleached/dyed halfway down it makes for a pretty interesting effect when doing anything remotely fancy (also lol @ womens hair blogs having these elaborate 10 minute long rituals while mens hair blogs are done entirely at the barbershop)pic.twitter.com/GdxJdnLR02

another, better attempt at half-ponytail. might switch to it as default hairdo also some tries (and fails) at buns, they arent staying as far up or as well as they should be. might be an equipment problem this is surprisingly tiring for my armspic.twitter.com/k5GNWL4M4h

ive spent half an hour trying to braid my hair and ive gotta say i underestimated how hard this was going to be i am increasingly of the opinion that amongst women, fancy hairdos are a show of dominant skill meant to intimidate lesser women

@MagisterMrK for the guide feels weird and bouncy, but its fast and a good method of putting my hair uppic.twitter.com/LFIInoB6fU
