How to fake long hair with short hair
November 5, 2009
So you have seen how i turn my long hair into a short bob.
This hair tutorial will attempt to show you the complete opposite— how to turn middle length hair into super long hair, without using a wig or any hair extension.
Liddis. And no the second picture isn’t taken after 56 years.
Magic leh!
However, be warned that this is probably most Cheat One™ Hair Tut i have ever done.
In fact, it is so genuinely Cheat One™ (oxymoron wtf), if by the end of this post you haven’t felt cheated already, i may consider taking offense in that.
#1 So this tutorial only works on side pony tail. I always love side pony tail because normal pony tails are so boring. But the only flaw is that when you tie it up real high, it looks really short. So what if you want really long and fluffy pony tail hanging from the crown of your head! And extensions are so expensive and a total bitch!
#2 So you tie half a pony tail at the side. Tie it high. (Sorry this pic is totally inconsistent with all the pix below because i forgot i need a shot like this so i took it a different time). 
(And these pictures are taken ages ago. My hair isn’t even this color anymore.) Ok so after you tie half a pony tail, you can proceed to tong it with a curler. And the rest of your hair. You can also do this before you tie your hair, but doing it after will give you more control over how you want it to look and would be less messy.
Showing rubber bands is a faux paux unless done intentionally! So whenever you tie your hair, you shall hide the rubber band with your own hair. To do this, you need some of your own hair, and a bobby pin.
#5 Just pick a thin chunk from the ponytail and wrap it around the rubber band. Go several rounds until it is not visible anymore.
#6 And then secure the chunk of hair (the remaining part) underneath. And you are about done. But sometimes you will find the pony tail jutting out and it’s not very nice like that, so you want to take a small chuck of the pony tail and pin it together with the hair that is untied to make sure it stays near your scalp. Sorry i don’t have pic for that, forgot to take.
#7 And then just sapu all hair to the side where you tie your pony tail.
#8 And you will look like you have extremely loooong hair.
#9
Of course, tutorial is not without flaw. Like usual, it is Cheat One™.
So it only looks nice from the front. When someone look at you from behind, it is damn obvious Cheat One™ la. But i hardly turn my head 180° to see how my hair looks at the back of my head. Plus, if i turn 180°, i still can’t see the back of my head anyway.
So there. I just need to please myself. Whatever i cannot see, i just assume they are perfect. ^^
Enjoy your Cheat One™ Tutorial! Tell me how you like it!

“Don’t Potong Yet!!” Update:
Ok so a lot of people advice me not to potong Streamyx yet. From now on I will report here my Streamyx service frequently.
So ever since the “Cut Your Head” campaign i noticed that the line has been quite stable. Today i managed to download a whole Vivi album (74MB) within an hour. Acceptable la. Just hope that they could improve their service and do better!
So as of now, i won’t potong just yet. Just in case i regret, or have to blog outside at my balcony fml.
Let’s see how it goes!

<3 back
I hope you don’t get offended, but I REALLY don’t like most of your new header pictures. They are crazily overphotoshopped and one of them doesn’t even look like you.
Xiaxue is already turning so plastic, please don’t follow suit!(although yours is photoshop, not actual surgery)
You’re pretty, naturally! There IS too much photoshop :/
nah. my designer did them and i like them.
why bother about the header pics, just take it as part of the design, there are more then thousand and 1 un-photoshopped photos for you to see here, so ya.
on another note
honestly cheesie, i dont understand also, the original pic (can see fr twitter page) is so much prettier and natural..no need PS at all. you are kinda weird
i like them also…
hmm… was thinking that you will tie two pony tails (one up one down) instead; then hide the bottom pony with the top pony;
but was wrong.
i wonder how it look like from the back; (:
opps; forget this..
what!! i dont get that!!! lol
my fringe always grow back after i trim it like 3weeks
how u tahan wan
i dun tahan ah. i just trim again lo.
every 3weeks go saloon?
ok..i go kidnap hairstylist

this hair tutorial really is good. its quite easy to do too (but i really dislike rollers as i tend to burn my fingers

u need to burn enough fingers to master the skill and perfect the art of curling! hehehehe

haha just read plenty of mags and look alot alot into the mirror and play with ur hair all the time
Nicely done!
thx!!
I sorta took this and made it my own. I sweep everything and then secure it with a hair clip. *don’t know how to explain* but from behind it looks like a side ponytail! Loveeeee it.
And I agree with above statement that your pictures are overly photoshopped.. Overall they are okay except for one that does not look like you. I was staring at it for a full minute… I thought ur website kena hacked -__-
wa i dont really get it. got pic to show?
This is awesome once again!!!:B

Hehe, I managed to figure out the trick just by looking at those first two pictures. But I was expecting long hair from really short hair! Like less than shoulder-length hair! Cheat one.
