Hair Transformation Vlog - Extended Cut

[@ch527kerosene]

You've seen me do my hair transformations in short videos with almost no commentary for years, but this time I decided to talk you through the whole thing in an extra-long, vlog-style vid! It was fun to do something new, but be sure to let me know if you prefer the original format or if I should do more like this 👀Oh! And what do you think of the new hair? :D

her sister posts art on instagram and someone commented asking if kero was okay back in april of this year, keros sister said she is alright and is “living her life off the internet these days” so yes kero is alive and well, it is confirmed by her sister. so all this speculation can stop now

Can you please give us the Instagram of her sister?

[@turgsh01]

Interesting. I wonder if it was another idiot stalker ruining her life and she just had to run away from it all, like so many other attractive female youtube ppl. If your comment is true, then I'm glad she's ok and living her life. But I'm still very sad (and a little angry) to see her completely disappear from all social medias with no warning or goodbye at all. It's also a little bit gross that she's still accepting patreon donations when she's no longer active... like at all.

[@blackwing97]

when you use the wrong formula and somehow still get the right answer

[@marzipanmango]

How would you get the red colour out, with a bleach bath or maybe a proper colour remover? Asking for a friend...👀

[@lilgoblinboy]

@@marzipanmango red is actually the easiest color to get out generally because it has the biggest dye molecule which causes most of the color to stain the top of the hair strand rather than penetrate it. Color remover should get it out fine, bleach can sometimes cause the dye to stain even deeper depending on the brand of dye

[@sofa_table]

Everytime I watch one of your videos, the closer I get to getting a deathhawk

[@ch527kerosene]

do itttt

[@lara3540]

I’ve had two deathhawks in my life and let me tell you, it’s an awful hell circle you can’t escape. First, you get a deathhawk, you love it but soon start thinking too much about it “It’s too long/It’s too short/It’s too uneven” yadda yadda, then you think “but it will take sooo long to grow out and will look awful in the process (so of course your very smart idea is to start growing it out) and after MONTHS almost YEARS when you finally grew it out you start thinking “But I wanted a deathhawk not this boring haircut :(“ and then THE WHOLE ORDEAL STARTS AGAIN. But anyways, do it! You will regret it but it’s sooo worth it.

[@opalfroggy-2156]

i’ve done it a bunch!! it’s so fun for when you have your hair up and the shaved sides are there, esp helpful for summer lol

[@maggotst.pierre2361]

@@lara3540 are you perhaps manic when you go through this? I've done some crazy shit to my hair when I get manic.

[@lara3540]

@@maggotst.pierre2361 Hahaha, very close actually! I suffer from ADHD so my impulse control is basically non existent and I have very extreme mood shifts. Ever since I got on meds a few months ago I’ve gotten a lot better though. But if I had a very bad depressive episode before I was diagnosed with ADHD I was basically almost in a manic like state. Bought tons of thinks without thinking about the money I spent on it, dyed, shaved, cut my hair - you name it. I hope you have a good way of dealing with your manic episodes, I would never say that I absolutely understand your struggle as an outsider without Bipolar, but I can very much relate to it. (I just googled it and I read that Bipolar and ADHD are actually often confused, because some symptoms are very similar. It’s so interesting to learn new things about mental health every once in a while! Take care!)

[@dNbBabe]

A tip for your ear tails, that should give you that layered effect: cut a tiny section at the length you want them, with them down, as they sit naturally. Then pick them up and pull them out at a 90 degree angle from your scalp, and just blunt cut. This way all the hairs should be the same lenght, so when you let them fall back down, you should have that naturally faded effect. The more fade you want, the higher you should lift the tails. Hope this makes sense... Edit: typos

[@dNbBabe]

@@skillsinpills2311 I've been cutting my own hair for years now, so I'm coming from a place of trial and error and lessons learned. You definitely don't have to be a professional to be able to pull it off

[@MayCorn]

I was going to say exactly that, just pull the hair away from your head and cut. This creates a natural layering effect the same as if you shaved it and it grew.

[@bethanyjee9934]

I do the exact same thing with my tails! I find it's a bit easier and quicker to brush the hair flat onto my face across my temple on that same 90* angle from the roots, rest my scissors on my face and blunt cut straight up. Hope that's a good visual. It might be a bit dangerous but it takes like 5 seconds to do it perfect so it's worth it, especially since I'm terrible at layering

[@thekaty714]

Exactly what I was gonna say! Over directing is key:)

I was thinking about the same thing. She just disappeared from the internet about two years ago and that's it. Never posted anything on any of her pages since 2021. How weird.

Effecor from L'Oréal will take out direct Dye and permanent hair color it's not one of those 3 stepers. It's more of bleach based color remover. I use it on my daughter and there's never been a color it did not remove It's a powder you mix with 20-30 volume developer.... Also salt water or going swimming in pool with chlorine we found that out on accident last year on a beach vacation.

Pull your side tails out 90 degrees, hold your scissors straight up with the blades pointing to the ceiling so your hands should be in the same position (finger tips to the ceiling) and blunt cut it and if you want an edgier tapered cut you would point cut it to make it more spiky OR an easier solution would be to use thinning shears to taper the edges.
