I thought it would be interesting to see if there was a particular
concentration of one group of people on these boards. These labels are
not literal, i.e. if you're not a hippy but you go with the whole
attitude then you are hippy/pagan. -------------

I'm a mixture of hippie/townie (grew up in Greenwich Village in NYC)/and outdoorsy. But I think probably mostly hippie/pagan. -------------

I'm a mix of prim, gothy and arty-farty. This means I'm always in conflict about my hair. The gothy side wants crazy aysymmetric fringes and black dye, the arty side wants natural,flowing hair and the prim side is left to pick up the pieces and balance the other two out .------------- |

I voted Hippy/Pagan, but I'd have to say I'm many of those things. I can
tell you what I'm not... I wouldn't really say I'm a hippy, but I do like to attend hippy jam band festivals and everything that goes along with that. Plus I love the Grateful Dead. I'm not religous though. I'm not gothy but I do have piercings.(non on my face) I'm business like but not straitlaced. I'm not really a Chav, bling bling, rapper, and I'm not a student. Nor do I have any kids. Not to pick apart your voting choices, but I figured since I posted I might as well get more in depth! ------------- Don't let the man get you down ~ me 1c MC iii Dark Brown, 22" Goal: Waist |

Lol, I just chose options that labeled people in to recognisable groups... Yes, I meant prim like you said Sugaree. Thanks for pointing out that Hippy/pagan might bug people Longhairdreams, I was just trying to get across a certain mentality I put myself as goth as I am one but really I should have made it a multiple choice since I could have put student or outdoorsy as well. Glad you like the poll  ETA not pierced though apart frorm the standard earring holes and I fainted when I had them done!  Plus I can only wear titanium earrings for any period of time -------------

No I was stupid to point that out. i just saw that they werent meant to be literal.I guess when I first saw it ,I didnt know what to think.But not much longer I realized that there's nothing about the way its listed that should bother anyone. I love how unique some of you were with your answers. I guess I'd say:Too busy with the kids to have a personality!lol J/K I am artsy.I guess I'm a waterhouse girl.I'm old minded,a bit of a prude.But I'm not prim at all. I love the outdoors.I'm a horseback riding,hiking,mushroom picking country girl. I'm not afraid to get dirty.Big crowds give me anxiety attacks.but I love shopping. And hair obsessed doesnt even begin to describe it.

I voted student because that's my occupation, but I'm an art student! And people always think I'm a goth from how I dress, but I'm not pierced...And I'm quite hippy too. So I'm mostly artsy, but voted student. ------------- http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea - http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea Ah-ha, a place I can soon add hair pics...once I do some |

Anais, I always think of "bling" as being the over the top diamonds (diamante) and chinky gold chains. if you can bear it, watch any rapper's music video and you'll see what I mean ------------- http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea - http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea Ah-ha, a place I can soon add hair pics...once I do some |

You have all shared so much.. I'll ad: Im a painter, a student, spiritual, moody, I have been a goth with piercings, i don't like spending to much time in big crowds, i am and like being a hermit ( but i don't get the chance to be one because im hardly ever alone), i can't stand screaming kids but think they are adorable when they smile, i want to adopt a baby rather than have one on my own, i love reading, i belive in intuition and natures healing powers. etc etc |

Well goodness me.....I couldn't choose just one. I guess if I had to....I'd be a hippy/pagan. I think longhairdreams described herself well...and it sounded just like me! However, I own a fairly large and successful business, but I'm NOT straightlaced! hehehe I am NOT three of the choices though: Gothy, Chav or student. So that narrows it down doesn't it? And btw, my beautiful sons have expanded my personality to a level I never thought existed -------------

I voted 'Townie' for myself~ but I think I am also high maintenance~ so 'Prim' too~ even though I do have a laidback personality. 'Stylewise' I guess I am those things above. I say I am those things because I like being pampered and enjoy staying with tends and high fashion etc. Interesting thread! |

Missrini- What type of business do you own? I remember in another thread you mentioned you were a graphic artist. The reason I'm asking is, so am I! What kind of work do you do at your company? I work for a printer, we do retail signs mainly. ------------- Don't let the man get you down ~ me 1c MC iii Dark Brown, 22" Goal: Waist |

Hi Sugaree, I own a photography studio with my husband. The studio is a parent company which has many off-shoots. One of the offshoots is a company called aussiepinups.com. This is my "baby". If you want to see some of my graphics work you can go to the website http://www.aussiepinups.com - www.aussiepinups.com We are franchising this business Australia-wide this year and have just sold our first one. Most of my other work is just stuff I take on privately (I have been getting into designing stationery for weddings lately...the whole thing from the save the date cards, to the invitations, to the place cards, to the thank you cards...etc.etc). My current project is a re-design of http://www.thelookstudio.com.au - www.thelookstudio.com.au which will take me a couple of months I think. I also worked on http://www.thelookoftheyear.com.au - www.thelookoftheyear.com.au and occasionally do updates for that site. So there you go! I know you're not supposed to advertise here....but hey, I was asked the question so I answered it With all that on my plate, I really shouldn't be hanging out on hair boards....but I can't help myself!!!!!!!! -------------

Wow that's pretty cool Missrini, thanks for sharing! Congratulations on
selling your first franchise. My boyfriend and I have some (indefinate) plans to move down under sometime within the next 5 years. He has famly in Brisbane, so we'll probably want to live somewhere near there... so I figured it's good to know someone in the biz. Anyway, BACK TO THE HAIR TOPIC...when you do photo shoots, would you say that a lot of the models have long hair? ------------- Don't let the man get you down ~ me 1c MC iii Dark Brown, 22" Goal: Waist |

Missrini, fascinating stuff about your job. And I won't tell anyone you were advertising Back to hair (again lol) - isn't it odd that no chavs have voted yet? I wonder what that means... ------------- http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea - http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea Ah-ha, a place I can soon add hair pics...once I do some |

Sugaree, come on down! Brizzy is a great place to live and I'm sure there is lots of work for graphic designers....if not, then start up on your own. As for long-haired models...yes, there are quite a few. I'd say more long-hairs than short. Unfortunately alot of the long-haired girls don't have it in very good condition. Blonde hair is pretty popular and that means mega-bleach and processing. But hey, we can always Photoshop it! enfys, maybe "chavs" don't have long hair? I had actually never heard of that term, so maybe ppl don't know what it means so they don't vote for it? Hmm....I don't know. -------------

I assumed "clavs" means urban, rap stuff like that. I hate using that word
"urban" because it's really misused a lot of the time here in The States to discribe african american trends. Really anything that comes from a city should be considered "urban" but hey, that's stereotypes for ya. ------------- Don't let the man get you down ~ me 1c MC iii Dark Brown, 22" Goal: Waist |

Maybe mostly business-like, then "hippy" (at least, concerned about the
environment and frown on wasteful consumption), then maybe "outdoorsy"
(even though I spend most of my time indoors, but I do love communing
with nature on occasion). Not easy to put myself wholly into one
of these boxes. ------------- |
