I'm taking a short break from finishing the picture I'm working on. My eye fell on the album of photos from our years in Africa that my mother sent home with me last time I saw her, and I figured I'd prove to you guys that I had Mello hair as a kid because I have no life:

Compare with my icon. And here's a closeup:

The thing I'm standing next to is a pangolin - it's a type of scaly anteater. That's it's butt towards the camera - like most scaly/spiky mammal-type things, it tend to curl up when it feels threatened, so it had its head tucked in.

And a closeup of the pangolin's butt, because you know you wanted to see it:

It was originally longer, and then I got this major desire for bangs, so my mom cut them, and then Mom got tired of my hair tangling, so she started periodically whacking it all off above my shoulders. XD

I've also got this great picture - 'great' meaning 'awful' - of three of us kids on the station, and it managed to be, like, the worst picture any of us had ever taken.

Pangolin!!

(See, there was bound to be someone who'd get excited about a pangolin's butt)

And the hair's wonderful. It looks like it's about to go into an anime!hair-swing any minute. ^_~

For a second I was like, "Is she standing next to a half-buried crocodile tail?"

Sooo cute! My hair was rather short when I was little because I had a sensitive head and would cry when people tried to brush out the tangles.

ahaha. i think maybe wammy took all the kids on tours around the world, don't you? so they'd be prepared in later life to be crazy genius detectives.

thus, omg, this is not really YOU but wammy's (is it whammy? i hope not. o.O) vacation photo. :D

I totally had that same hair cut and hair colour. So you are not alone in having had Mello's hair.

[identity profile] telophase.livejournal.com 2005-10-22 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
:D Yeah, it's a fairly basic pageboy cut that Mom did so she could take care of it easily, and I had it until I was in ... fourth grade or so? Up to the time I started taking control of my own style, at least. My hair started darkening in second grade and looking at me now you'd never realize I was once a platinum blonde. XD

That pangolin butt is great.
But not as great as your Mello hair.
...which rocks my world.

You should look for a picture of yourself eating chocolate at that age. :O

You look disturbingly like my sister when she was wee. Well, and like me, but mostly like my sister.

Her hair is now curly and strawberry blonde. Mine is...short.
