RAIN begins to fall. Tyler gets to his feet. He grabs two breaker switches, waits for Jack. Jack grabs two other switches, apparently, they have to do this in a certain order. Tyler flips his switches, then Jack flips his. They sit down on the decrepit, buckled wood floor. There's not one item of furniture in the room. The previous occupant collected magazines. They each pick up an opened magazine and resume reading, adjusting close to the candles.
Tyler lies down next to him, setting his candle next to Jack's. Tyler picks up a magazine. It's written in first person. JACK What are you reading? Every Wednesday night, after fighting like wild animals, we were too wired to go to sleep. Thursday morning, my Boss didn't know what to think. Boss blocks him from the rest of the room, gives him a dubious look, turns back to Walter. And all I could do was think about next week. As Walter continues, his sales pitched gets drowned out by Jack's narration: Walter, the Microsoft account exec, smiled at me with his steam shovel jaw.
Walter, with his smooth, soft hands. Here he was, doing his cute little show. Maybe thinking about a free-range potluck he'd been to last weekend, but probably not. Walter moves to Jack and slaps his shoulder. You liked it, didn't you? They GLOW eerily in the dim light. You can swallow a pint of blood before you get sick. Jack keeps the smile frozen on his face. His candy ass wouldn't last a second in fight club.
We value your privacy
Young men get out of the arriving cars and wander into the tavern. MUSIC plays from the jukebox. The arriving men simply wait. Tyler and Jack enter. They, too, stand back against he wall. The waiting army begins to share secret looks and grins. A certain level of eagerness can be seen among them. Irvine looks at Jack and grins. The drunken customers squint and get the message. They gulp down their drinks, plop down money and filter out the door. Irvine hits a button and the jukebox loses power -- the record simply turns slower until it stops revolving.
Finally, the last of the irritated customers leaves. One guy locks the door. Two other guys pull down blinds. Had to check it out. Tyler nods to Jack and Jack turns on the light. The guys mill around, finding partners. The whole mood is very friendly. Everyone brims with eagerness, but tries to act cool about it. They fight till they're burger.
His face is partially in shadow. Everyone spreads out, forming a circle, the light bulb for a center. The second rule of fight club is -- you don't talk about fight club. This kid, Ricky -- supply clerk -- he can't remember whether you ordered pens with blue ink or black ink The fourth rule is -- only two guys to a fight. But Ricky was a god for ten minutes when he trounced an actuary twice his size. Sixth rule -- no shirts or shoes. Seventh rule -- fights go on as long as they have to. They circle each other, then begin throwing punches. SWEAT flies into the moist air.
Sometimes you could hear flat, hard packing sounds over all the yelling as someone caught his breath and sprayed: Even if I could tell someone they had a good fight, I wouldn't be talking to the same man. Who you were in fight club is not who you were in the rest of your world. You weren't alive anywhere like you were alive at fight club. But fight club only exists in the hours between when fight club starts and when fight club ends. Jack, playing solitaire on his computer, daubs blood from his mouth with a handkerchief. BOSS What are you getting yourself into every week? PG 47 Jack flashes a smile at Boss.
Boss shakes his head, walks away. After a night in fight club, everything else in your life gets the volume turned down. You can deal with anything. All the people who used to have power over you have less and less. Reflexively, Jack's tongue plays with his teeth. By this point, I could wiggle most of the teeth in my jaw. An arrogant MAN in a three-piece suit brushes past him, knockng his shoulder.
We all started to size people up. Jack violently knocks the Man's shoulder in return. The Man turns and he and Jack face each other for a brief moment. Jack's face is stone. The arrogant Man continues down the aisle. The Guy grins, giving a slight nod. We were all doing it. The Valet and Jack share a quick smile.
I would see them all the time -- fight club members looking at other guys, knowing they could kick their asses. Fight club was not about winning or losing. It wasn't about words. The Opponent recovers, throws a headlock on Jack. Jack snakes his arm into a counter headlock. They, wrestling like wild animals. The hysterical shouting was in tongues, like at a Pentecostal church. The onlookers kneel to stay with the fight, cheering ever louder. The Opponent smashes Jack's head into the floor, over and over. Everyone moves in as the Opponent steps away.
They lift Jack to his feet. Tyler pushes through the crowd. Afterwards, we all felt saved. They both drip blood and sport bruises. They each carry a 4x4 piece of WOOD. They come to a bus stop that has a large display ad for jeans. It has a photo of a shirtless man.
Tyler smears blood on the ad. They continue on their way. Tyler kicks it into a deep HOLE. He and Jack tightrope-walk on wooden beams over darkness. Fight club isn't about looking good. As they step back onto solid pavement, Tyler kicks one of the beams, causing it to come loose and fall. The whole temporary work structure falls into the hole. Tyler and Jack continue walking. Tyler hands Jack the 4x4 and runs, laughing. Jack stands there a moment, then throws the stick and runs after Tyler.
A guy comes to fight club for the first time, and his ass is a wad of cookie dough. After a few weeks, he looks carved out of wood. He trusts himself to handle anything. Tyler pulls his fingers, popping them -- his knuckles are swollen. He grins at the pain. Self-destruction is the answer. Jack enters from the living room, buttoning his shirt. JACK That's the idea -- we split them. JACK I found a new one. Can I go to it? JACK It's for men. Look, this is a bad time. I got a stomach full of Xanax. I took what was left of the bottle. Might've been too much Picture yourself watching Marla throw herself around her crummy apartment, saying, "I'm dying.
It could go on for hours. JACK You probably want to die in peace. I'll let you go. I want you to hear me describe death. Jack puts the handset on top of the phone, still off the hook, and walks out of the kitchen. Then, groans of ecstasy approaching climax. Tyler's door was closed. I'd been living here a month, and Tyler's door never closed. He takes in a long yawn, rubs his eyes. Marla walks in, straightening her dress. She looks like she's been raped by a hurricane. Some of her hair is matted against her head, some of it is sticking out wildly.
Jack gapes at her in shock. She cracks a coy smile and runs a finger across the back of his neck. She pours herself a cup of coffee. She gives Jack a lascivious smile. Then, she sips from the cup. She strokes his hair. JACK What the fuck are you doing here?! She kicks open the door to the backyard and walks out.
Jack watches her stomp across the lawn to the sidewalk and down the street. Jack turns and -- Tyler is at his shoulder, staring after Marla. He's in his usual sweatpants. He grins at Jack, then moves away, pours himself coffee. Jack, smoldering, slumps at the table and picks up Reader's Digest. Tyler puts his foot on a countertop and begins to do stretching exercises. Get this -- I come home and the phone is off the hook I already knew the story before he told it to me.
Gently, Tyler lifts the handset and listens, smiling. Before he can knock, Marla's hand shoots out and grabs Tyler's arm.

Her drugged eyes look him over. She staggers and sits on the bed. She slides off, along with the blanket and sheets, to the floor. She tries to focus her eye on Tyler. She gets to her feet, grabs Tyler, hauls him to his feet and pulls him out the door. The rescuers keep running. Marla and Tyler start down the steps.
Marla lingers a beat, hearing the cops bang on the door. She calls out to them: But she has no faith in herself. Tyler yanks on Marla's arm. They continue down the steps, with Marla's speech getting louder. She's turned into a monster! She's infectious human waste! Good luck trying to save her! Marla slouches against the refrigerator. You have to keep me up all night. He was able to handle it. Tyler's eyes are closed.
Marla kisses his ear. And she's spouting this crap she got from watching too much television. If only I hadn't gone to a movie. If only I went to her stupid room to watch her die. Tyler sits opposite him, studies his face. JACK You didn't think so? JACK How would you know what my type is? JACK Oh, and my pace is more librarians and den mothers. How could someone like Tyler get involved with someone like Marla Singer? JACK Marla doesn't need a lover. She needs a case worker. She invaded my support groups, now she's invaded my home.
I Am Joe's Clenching Bowels. Put a gun to my head and paint the wall with my brains. JACK It's fine, great. You gotta understand something about me. I got a little rule. Don't ever talk to her about me. I can't stand that kind of shit. Tyler fixes Jack with a friendly, but firm stare.
And you'll never see me again. Tyler abruptly gets up and leaves the kitchen. Jack watches him go, smoldering. I could've moved to another room, one on the third floor -- so I wouldn't have heard them. I wrote little haiku things: I was the Zen master. I want to have your abortion. Jack flips the fuses off, walks up the stairs. He reaches the landing. Tyler's door is slightly ajar. Jack can't help stopping. Her head is down over the far side, out of view. Tyler grins and nods toward bed. Jack continues toward his room.
He sits in his Zen pose, typing. I faxed them around to everyone. Boss enters, reacts with exasperated irritaiton at the sight. Boss stares at Jack like he's from Mars. BOSS Take the rest of the day off. Come back tomorrow with clean clothes. And get yourself together. His face is totally passive. I got right in everyone's hostile little face. Yes, these are bruises from fighting. It's nothing to me? See how cool I am about it?
That's right, I'm enlightened! You give up the condo life, give up all your worldly possessions and go live in a dilapidated house in the toxic waste part of town. Jack rolls his eyes, takes off his pants. He runs water in the sink. He takes a tiny bit of soap and begins to scrub the blood stains.
We have some new information about your condo. The deadbolt on your front door was shattered. Someone sprayed freon into the lock to freeze it. Then, they tapped it with a cold chisel to shatter the cylinder. I Am Joe's Cold Sweat. And, in fact, cold sweat beads up on Jack's forehead. He scrubs his pants obsessively. The gas was just the trigger. JACK Who do you think did it? JACK I loved my life. I loved that condo. I loved every stick of furniture.
That was my whole life. The dishes were me. The plants were me. The television was me. I'd like to thank the academy Jack's eyes move upward, then back down. If any ideas come to you, give me a call. And, in the meantime, don't leave town. Tyler puts a hand on Jack's shoulder, squeezes it affectionately. Jack turns away and continues to scrub -- rebuffing Tyler. Tyler smiles compassionately at him. Jack looks around to the open back door, then back at Marla. She lights a cigarette. Except for their humping, Tyler and Marla were never in the same room. The same disappearing act my parents pulled for years -- one came in, and the other was gone.
Marla moves very close to Jack and props a leg up on a stack of magazines near him. She's not wearing underwear. Jack becomes very aware of his having no pants on, so he pushes up against the counter. Marla lasciviously pulls the hemline further up her leg. JACK It was worth every penny. Someone loved it intensely for one day, then tossed it.
Like a Christmas tree -- so special, then, bam, it's on the side of the road with tinsel still clinging to it. She leans in very close to his ear and whispers hoarsely: Marla blows smoke into Jack's face. He grabs her cigarette, throws it into the water in the sink. Get rid of her. Jack turns and sees Tyler in the back doorway. Jack looks toward the archway, then back at --? Marla glides into the kitchen with a PACK of cigarettes.
She daintily takes one out and lights it. I'm six years old again, passing messages between my parents. I think you should go now. Marla begins to do a slow, exotic dance around the kitchen, sometimes moving very close to Jack, sometimes moving away. She lifts her dress dangerously high -- does she expose herself? She dances very close to Jack's body, almost touching it. JACK What are you trying to do?!
She touches Jack's hair. He slaps her hand away. JACK Just get out of here. Marla's face turns sour. Jack watches her through the kitchen window. Through the window, in the background, Marla can be seen quickly moving away on the sidewalk. Tyler puts his hand on Jack's shoulder. Jack keeps up with him.
A Clerk ambles toward his car, taking off his uniform bow tie. JACK What are you doing?! JACK Are you out of your fucking mind?! Tyler stops the Clerk and pushes him down to a kneeling position. The Clerk fumbles his wallet out of his pocket and Tyler snatches it. Tyler pulls out the driver's license. A small, cramped basement apartment. Raymond, you're going to die. You have no idea of what it is to hit bottom. I've been trying to get you there -- I blew up your condo. Tyler continues, to Raymond: TYLER Your mom and dad will have to call old doctor so-and-so to get your dental records, because there won't be much of your face left.
Raymond begins to weep, his shoulders heaving. Jack starts to gasp for air. Growing even paler, he slumps back against a tree. His mouth becomes dry. JACK Look, if this is all about me Nothing is about you. What did you used to study, Raymond K. Were the mid-terms hard? Tyler shoves the gun against Raymond's temple.
A long beat while Raymond weeps and says nothing. Tyler begins to squeeze the trigger. JACK croaking with dry mouth Answer him! That means you have to get more schooling. Tyler shoves Raymond's wallet back into his pocket. I know where you live. I'm going to check on you. If you aren't back in school on your way to being a veterinarian, you will be dead. Now, get the hell out of here. Raymond staggers into the darkness.
Jack, still clinging to a branch with a deathgrip, looks at Tyler. Tyler slowly turns to face Jack. Hessel, tomorrow will be the most beautiful day of your life. Your breakfast is going to taste better than any meal you've ever eaten. Jack's eyes light up. He looks at the fleeing Raymond, then back at Tyler. He sighs, then shakes his head, then cracks his weird, little crooked smile. He looks with almost religious reverence at Tyler. Tyler turns and smiles at Jack. He does so, but wobbles and gets his shirt snagged.
Tyler tries to help him. Jack falls, ripping his shirt. Tyler breaks the fall, gets Jack to his feet. He finally walks back toward the adjacent building, goes inside. Tyler eagerly grabs the lid of the closest dumpster. Jack gapes at the "biohazard" sign. TYLER The best fat for making soap -- because the salt balance is just right -- comes from human bodies.
Jack breathes heavily, afraid to look. Jack reacts to the smell, turning away. His eyes focus on the side of the adjacent building and its SIGN: One of Jack's bags gets caught on the barbed wire and rips, spilling the goo all down the fence. Jack's pants and shoes get covered; he slips and slides. I am not saying this just because I love your blog and your lovely personality well, maybe they are part of the reason so much.
Your smile and laugh really distract us from the problem you concern with. Ok, back to the topic. I have hair issue too. My hair is in the middle of growing out and the length reaches my shoulders now. The problem is there is no shape in my hair! Last year before traveling to London, I went for a haircut and it was completely a failure. So my bad haircut sticks to every photo of mine with the beautiful London scene as a contrast. I am going to Paris in April, what should I do with my hair: Your wild hair is so cute! I might just be crazy, but I love big hair.
En plus il faut un lisseur ou tu peux faire des mouvements avec tes cheveux pour leur donner un air pas trop baguette. Perhaps you should own the curls. See… I watch your videos and think how naturally chic your are in your perfectly imperfect bun. Making being utterly fabulous look so simple, yet so hard for we average ladies to achieve.
As for blow drying, bleh. But I dread it. I just blow dry with a paddle brush and then use a chi straightener after to make waves in my hair, but it does take time…. I make little messy waves with it and move on… The secret is some kind of frizz-killing serum. Tou va changer quand vos cheuveux se debaressent du traitement Keratine je pense. My hair is super curly, I just let it be or have the bun. If you have a solution, please share! I have curly hair too and have your same problems! Almost anytime I try to straighten my hair it is kind of a disaster. Even when I accomplish it I find it impossible for my hair to have the right texture.
Instead I embrace my curls. Je suis dac avec Biba! Je ne le fais pas souvent, car je manque de tomber dans les pommes en attendant que mes cheveux soient lisses. Your hair is lovely. You have such a beautiful face and elegant jaw line that your hair swooped up in a bun looks perfect. I have been able to manage it with a powerful blow dryer no flat iron UNLESS there is a desperate need a la skanky tendrils in back of head and product with varying degrees of success, depending on the weather.
I live in DC. I have oily hair that I really need to wash every day. The water in the city is HARD, loaded with minerals and deposits. The humidity here is awful. First, grow your hair out. As you know, the shorter it is, the curlier it gets. The weight of a longer length pulls down the curl and gives you more to work with. Second, when you get your hair cut, get long layers. Go to somebody who understands curly hair. I had to grow my hair out for 3 years after my stylist cut layers framing my face from the top of my head down. When it rained, my long layers would stay straight, and I would have a halo of unicorn curls atop my head.
A good conditioner is key. Once or twice a week I use a hair mask: I brush and part my hair and spray F. Fifth, the blow dry. I blow dry with my right hand and have my brush in my left. As a result, I have never been able to master a rolling brush. I hold the head instead of the handle of the brush in my hand to best control it. I first rough dry my hair, loosely pulling up layers to get under the different sections.
I then sit down, flip my head over, and blow dry the rest with the paddle brush. I get in at the roots, keeping the dryer tight to the hair pulled taut, and then blast the cold air button halfway down the section toward the roots to avoid damage. After my hair is pretty much all dry, I flip it up and take a minute or two with the blow dryer on hot to tend to any kinks that may present themselves and then go through the rest of my hair with the dryer on cool to seal in some shine.
Garance your bun is so unique! It is so garance dore that you should not worry so much about it! We love that bun! You have such a beautiful face and smile that your bun helps people see it… Anyways I remember a post you did some time ago and everybody would comment about how beautiful your hair looked! You should try more often that hairstyle! For me personally flat irons work but my hair are not as curly as yours! I would give my left arm for such funky hair!! Honestly thought you looked better with your hair down. I also have brown, curly, out-of-control hair, but when you have ringlets like that, they look the most gorgeous when you let them do what they want.
Away with the bun, just let it bounce! I have very thick, curly and dry hair. It was always a mess… untill I discovered this blowdryer and brush in one tool, from Babyliss: Other things that worked for me: I stopped trying a long time ago to make my hair do anything other than stay natural.
Straightening, blow drying, curling—they all just took too much time and damaged my curls far too much. Now, all I do is spray my frizzy curls with water so that they get even messy and just rock that beachy-fun look. I have the same problem with my frizzy hair and have never been able to tame it so I just make my best effort and go.
I never learned how to blow dry so could probably use some lessons or a couple of extra hands. Your hair is beautiful in a bun or left down. It is part of your personality, alive and warm. I love all your videos. You are like the best friend everyone would like to have and hang out with. I say forget the blow drying and frustration that will come with it. Va voir sur son site… http: Use it after showering your hair and let it dry in the air… good luck and show your hair, let the bun rest a while: Garance, have you considered different style options?
Could be quicker than blowing out your hair and also keep your hair out of your way while working! I think bobby pins could be your new best friends!! I like to use them to get different sculptural effects, twisting and pinning to create texture. I love it because I can do it while my hair is wet and it takes me about 5 minutes — and people always compliment it!
Having said that,I have a bit of wisdom. Your hair wants to do what it wants. Its madness,but true of the entire female population. Allow it to be. Harsh chemicals,blow drying,flat ironing,etc. Ive always found true beauty in imperfection. So your hair is unruly and crazy,always wanting to do its own thing?
Embrace it,and let it be free.

All the products from Kerastase and do the Keratin treatment. Dry your hair with out blow it or so little beat and then use the flat iron with Kerastase straightener silicon oil. The hair have to look very,very health before straight it. Garance, I love your new cut — seeing it down in your videos gives me serious hair envy!
I also have dark and curly hair, but my curls lack the elegance of yours. So with you about the hair. I do the bun just about everyday except I wear it low thinking to myself then it qualifies as elegant chignon? So there you have it, a bun. Quelques retouches et hop! You looked so good in all the videos! Garance, you are so beautiful…you look great no matter what. Curly hair, slightly frizz-prone and shoulder length. I went to my favorite stylist that knows how to blow out curly hair not all of them do! It takes time and effort but eventually you get better. I like Kerastase products in combination with some Moroccan oil or argan oil treatment for shine.
Je voulais juste partager son secret avec toi: I have allways envied girls with curly hair!!! My hair is straight and nothing helps to curl them just a little at all! I can curl them as much as I want to, in any way there is possible but nothing will happen. For example, if I have curly hair in the morning, they somehow straighten themselves, and around lunch they are already straight. So have fun with your curly hair. Recently I found out that I like to wear my ponytail or bun as high as you wear your bun: Pourquoi pas essayer une coupe super courte?
Et chance, y en a plusieurs avec des wonderwoman aux cheveux curly!! Comme un lion en cage pour donner une image lisse. Entre Mowgli et Melle Chatterton. For oil — Instead of your dry shampoo, throw in baby powder talc , and run that through with your fingers. I do it all the time in the winter. Wash your hair at night.
Flip your head upside down, so that your hair is dangling toward the floor. Blow it dry from underneath. Do the math and it comes out to 2. This is quite depressing to me — think of all the things you could do with that time — shop, have a get-away weekend, even get your taxes done boring but essential, and I never feel like I have the time for my taxes — now I know why — I spent that two days blowdrying my hair , etc.
Anyway, I have no choice — this is years ago and I am still blowdrying my hair every day. But what are you going to do? Dear Garance, I have curly hair too not as curly as yours, but curly. My advice is to get a good hair cut, THE hair cut. I was only lacking the glasses and the guitar to look excactly like John Lennon in Imagine. I think your bun is very you: Garance… I avidly read you and only felt the compulsion to comment now.. It does the wierdest things when I travel.
Unlike your hair mine is very fine and very curly naturally.. I use Kerstase — the green bottle. Its literally the best. The serum is good too. From time to time John Freida Frizz ease champoo is good too. I leave it at that for products. But if I have clean hair it makes my day better. I buy my hairdryers at the salon supply stores.. When I travel I always bring my own champoo and hair dryer. Lastly I just wanted to say how much I admire you.
You truly are a beautiful person… I really like the way that you portray the fashion world … sometimes it can seem so inaccessible and snooty to those of us on the outside. You make it feel.. You are very real and fun. I love the way you smile all the time… and you also have your own style. You never try to be a victim of your environment: As women we all have hangups about our bodies and our style… so I can really relate to you feeling so critical about yourself on screen. I think you really shine in your videos… and as you say about Stella McCartny..
Your videos were fun, but the witty posts you write and illustrate keep me coming back. You probably know this already but the high bun plus Keratine, plus regular blow drying, plus short hair cut, plus amino acid treatment — trust me I tried them ALL actually causes more damage to curly hair! I learnt it the hard way. Whenever I put my hair down now it looks like a cat just ran through it, followed by me getting electrocuted, then went to the same hairdresser as Marge Simpson.
On a positive note, coconut oil or moroccan oil does wonders in softening the hair and roots.
Try it twice a week for a couple of hours then wash out twice with shampoo and deep conditioner. Secret treatments only to those who have suffered our pain! Je trouve que de cette facon, les cheveux gardent une texture naturelle. It takes much less time and was easy to learn how to do! You might want to try it! I wish we were friends because if we knew each other for real, what I am about to say might not seem so harsh. Just consider your recent interviews with two women with outstanding long, thick, curly hair — Corinne Bailey Rae and Franca Sozzani.
Can you see your self with long, thick, curly hair? Have you consider the suggestion that CBR offered you in the video when you asked her about her hair? You might try this. It works for me, however, I know, I know, I know, it takes time, my arms sometimes get tired. I have to plan when I do it — and that means spending less time doing other things I like to do, like commenting on your lovely website. I was taken aback that your beautiful luscious hair was pulled so tightly into a rather ordinary looking bun on that adorable video, yesterday.
Why not try a loose, sexy braid at the crown of your head, or something equally regal? However, your smile, your killer outfit, and your fabulous personality made up for the rather conservative, tight bun. Garance, you do loose really, really well. Should you not let your hair be as free as your personality?
Perhaps you ask the same question that I ask myself every morning when I look in the mirror: Alas, this incongruity disturbs me. Yet, I refuse to give in to the harsh styles that will, in the end, destroy the fine hairs at my temples which can happen slowly over time from pulling the hair into a bun. Also, harsh blow drying while the hair is soaking wet can cause hair to thin out over time, and Garance, that is not what we want. I have friends who are two decades older than me who have thick, gorgeous, long locs that they never, ever, ever, blow dry. They simply towel and air dry their hair and braid it into plaits, or into a single braid.
Of course, these women about whom I speak, live in a community that encourages women to be natural. Their lifestyle is quite different from our urban lifestyle. Mais pourquoi ne pas se faire un brushing chez un coiffeur, touteS les semaines. Bumble and Bumble is your hair best friend! Plus les cheveux sont long et lourd, moins ils frisent. I hace cowlicks all over, which make nice waves in some places … but make me look like I have antennae in the front … which was REALLY lovely when I decided to get bangs! Originally, my hair is very curly and most of the time can get very frizzy, which can really drive you crazy.
Couple of years ago I kept straightening my hair just blowdrying and at the same time styling with the round brush. However, it is soft, the curls are really nice and easily manageable. Also, if I try to plat it for the night, the curls next morning are as nice as on the day when I washed my hair. Hope this gives some ideas.. I am a huge fan of yours, I adore you, and love the new videos because I used to go to fashion week in paris with my mother who owns a store in Washington DC and carries Anne and Rick and I LOVE going with her to Paris, but now I am in medical school and had to let go of that luxury.
Although, let me tell you, you such an incredible, beautiful human being, that you carry your hair all the same. It keeps hair soft and supple, with just enough texture to keep it all stuck together. Also, making sure I get in all the layers, so I divide my hair three times to apply generous amounts but also rub it in a lot and make sure to get the ends which tend to be the most dry.
They must use a round brush, and must make it perfect the first time around because that is how it will stay. I also make sure the shampoo has been done VERY well so that my hair can literally last beautifully for a week! I wish I could help you and hope that my advice has been helpful.
I love your blog and think you are perfect in every smile, wrinkle, and outfit!!!! Garance, I have to tell you that you inspired me to stop straightening my own hair. In any case, thank you for inspiring me to put down the dryer and straight iron. My hair and free time is so appreciative! En fait, suis mon conseil: Tu devrais cultiver cela. Garance dear,i ve been following you for a long time and looooved your videos.

I prefer to see you more feminime which is with long hair,twice as long as they are now,they will have weight and body and quess what- you are lucky because you can do whatever you want with curly hair- i have exactly the same. You can have professional blow drys and with your lifestyle i think the best thing is to use rollers-big ones-in semi dry hair after you ve applied kerastase elixir ultimate or kiels silk groom let them dry and then when you take the rollers of spray a hairspray to avoid frizzines for the next days -especially in New York.
My best is pantene shine. Well to get to the point I feel the same about hair…for too long I rejected blowing it out or applying any products to it, i just figured it takes too much time, and no hair trick you pull a braid, pony tale, whathave you will endure a whole day of running from place to place, at work and all without having to retouch it endlessly. But the point is not how much time it gets out of your life to be happy with your hairstyle, the point its that I started to be bored with my hair.
People above have spoken about hair matching up your personality: Thats atleast what i needed. So some ideas for you, that helped me are: You need a change, get a haircut: Go to a great salon and ask around, or you might have an idea of a haircut that suits for face, and that can be low maintenance.
I chopped my hair quite a bit for a change, and that helped with the feeling that if loose my hair was unruly. Have you concidered a change in that sense? I never thought it important, but when I went for a lighter brown colour my natural is dark brown I felt younger and it lit up my face like magic, no kidding.
I think a colour change would be nice for you!! Blow it out a little, I blow it for 10 mins, without drying it completely, that way my hair can still take a natural shape and not look over done, but more importantly: I dont want to ruin my hair with excesive heating every morning. I think that the curly iron is a great option too to give some shape to it.
There are tons of youtube videos with cool hairstyle ideas. I hope to see your thoughts later on the blog. You need to love your hair again, I think that its like your smile, its such a bog part of who we are. Im freaking lazy to do anything with my hair, its just plain straight itself like freakin straight , so no matter how i curl and spray it, its straight again in less than an hour. So i learnt to live with it, i just dry it, as fast as i can before my arm gets tired its really long and thats it! I think your hair is nice Garance, just stop worrying about it!
Embrace the curl like Corrinne does. I always look forward to checking out your new ones. I think that your hairs are perfect and I love they!!! Do the Keritin treatment again. It will make your life so much easier, not to mention your hair fabulous!!! And its true, i also love my hair the most when it just dries itself! Of course that needs good weather, and i also like her -braid and let it dry idea, and I agree, grow your hair!!! It is really nice: I have long, thick, wavy hair, and I have to say I can make my hair look pretty amazing when I blow-dry it!

And also if you blow dry your supposingly long hair do it professionaly-they always look better and the whole look is soooo classy -matches better with your outfits. The girlie look does not-i am sorry. When you wear a bun it is like you state: Your hair is one of your best assets. Please grow them long and let us see a more feminime you. Trust me when you grow up you will have to have your hair short because long hair usually does not look good around an old face.
Anyway thank you for your great videos-i was coming home to them-thank you!! Je me sens moins seule lol. Conseil de mon coiffeur: Ne pas se laver les cheveux tous les jours. Que demander de plus?! Tiens nous au courant! Then blow dry it in sections saving the part that frames your face for last with the biggest natural bristle round brush you can get pulling the hair under towards you.
Garance, thank you very much for your blog, it is amazing! Speaking about hair, I guess no girl is happy with her hair, but I can tell you, your curly hair is beautiful and suit your image perfectly. The only thing that I like is this Braun Hair Styler http: Hi Granace, I must say, I feel your pain!! Recently though, I found the perfect solution. In smallish sections, I make sure to get the roots as flat as possible always a tell-tale sign of curly hair hiding behind a flat iron then about halfway down I start to curl it there are some great youtube vids on how to do this nicely.
I work pretty quickly around my head and before I know it I have relaxed, sexy, beachy curls! I admit after writing this it sound like a lot of steps but after YEARS of fighting with my hair this is surprisingly low maintenance for curly hair anyway.
Hi Garance, I recommend the Japanese straightening. And there are rumours that the amount of formaldehyde is high and can cause cancer. Be careful with the Japanese straightening as it can break or dry the hair if the treatment is left on the hair for too long. I like to use a paddle brush and to pull my hair back against the contours of my head while drying it. Using your head really helps — it keeps the hair from flying about and gives it a nice smooth, volumes shape. Absolutely obsessed with this post! Love your blog, now following religiously. Keep up the amazing posts.
Tes cheveux sont superbe. I am 45 and only just learning to cope with my hair — which is super thick with a kink — not a curl — a kink — it has to be long — it needs the weight — no hairdresser will ever tell you this — because long equals a lot of work for me and less often, but your hair will have a length it is best at and if you want to weigh it down a bit then weight is a good thing — i cant blow dry — tooo much effort and i get tangled up — in summer — i comb through once and sun dry — this works — winter not so much — dry and stick in some big rollers — it wont hold but it will tame cos rough drying makes it go huge — the way you comb when wet is important too — if you want some head height comb back from the 1st inch on the crown — then part that 1st inch — good luck xx and remember you are a package a pretty damn fab one too x.
Si tu peux pas changer le sens du vent, change le sens de ta voile. I had the same problem as you! A few years ago, I let it grow longer, and I found the weight helped the curls dry into waves which are much nicer — no blow drying required. I started using Moroccan Oil and I can actually wear my hair natural! In fact I made an appointment for some colour yesterday and the receptionist at the salon told me she loved my hair ….
Your hair is perfect the way it is both lengths. Straight hair has been dominant for too many years and soon things will cycle as they always do…. Pour le brush, mais bon sang! A part le volume du chignon ;- , ne changez rien…. I have never commented here before, but I have to tell you I adore your curly hair! It looks amazing just as it is. As a hair stylist who works with alot of curly hair, leaving a bit of conditioner in your hair after you shampoo goes a long way for taming frizz. And as another commenter mentioned, Devacurl is fantastic! I have to admit that i prefer you without the bun, sometimes it is a bit scruffy,and your curly hair are very beautiful!
I did keratine straighten too, to have more disciplinated and less messy hair. I heard that you can do the same treatement not with flat iron, but with thongs, so that you have softer curls…. Il fait des miracles…. I love how easily we can all relate to this post!
But then I found out that I could no longer braid my hair without it all falling out and the back would look like crap after I woke up. Garance, you just have to make peace with your curly hair. It might help you. Also, the woman who wrote it lives in New York…. I had wavy, unruly hair for most of my life, but after having children it went completely bonkers! After washing it was a frizzy mess that sometimes settled down into something approaching okay after sleeping on it, or even a day or two later.
Well, I took it, and it literally changed my life. I spent an hour and a half one-on-one with a stylist and she showed me how to do it properly.. I can blowdry my hair into straight and glossy locks in about half an hour. Garance, we love you more because you are not perfect!! I love your ongoing battle with your hair! Do not change a thing. Your problem is not your hair, is that you had to stare at yourself editing those films for hours…being over critical.
You are charming, elegant, joyful, clever… so what your bum is sometimes disheveled!!!!! Ton post est super garance. Moi je ne vais pas te donner de conseils mais compatire: I think your hair are great like that, original, unique and they fit your personality…. Maybe everyone should start embracing the natural state of their hair. I wonder how many people spend a lot of time making their hair the opposite of what it is? Maybe curly hair will become the must-have!
That is my personal conclusion on this matter. Your hair is gorgeous. I recommend the whole book but here is a quick wiki summary: You might try a dry cut from the Devachan salon in NY. A few other great products: I love how honest you are Garance! My hair has been a quest ever since I was in my teens, and I am still learning to accept the fact that it is NOT straight. But anyway, to answer your question about the blow drying: Then, part the top horizontally strand by strand and blow dry each one forward that was my trick , then the sides vertically and also forward.
They cut curly hair of all types and they cut according to your curl pattern very precise, methodical cuts that enhance what you already have. I just wish they were in L. Herbal essences split ends cream red bottle. I put it on my hair when wet then tie it in a loose bun. Smooths my hair but gives volume, prevents my poodle perm every time! Seeing the confidence with which you wear yours, helped to validate mine so thank you. If you have never tried a wet set on Extra Large rollers I do recommend it? It smoothes out the hair and relaxes the curl without losing it completely — you may need to use a flat Iron to smooth the roots but you may like the result.
The wet set has helped me to over come that problem…. The good news is I get that time back twice-fold the next couple of mornings.. Il les faudrait soit plus courts, petit carre qui tombe bien ou bien long en-dessous des epaules. Pas de brushing, tu va faire business woman! Garance, I love your blog and this post is close to my heart!
I spent years blow drying my curly hair because it was so frizzy and dull and out of control and I loved how it looked sleek and shiny when it was straight. The thing is, I hated blow drying it. Give me what is natural and low maintenance. These things are a hopeless cause with me: I had all but given up on liking my hair when I discovered Deva products which some others have mentioned in the comments. There are probably other good products for curly hair but these are the ones I found and they are miraculous on my hair. Now my curly hair is just as shiny, sleek and frizz free as straight hair but with waves and ringlets and I LOVE it!
