Hair Fair 2012

It's that time again! New coverings available to keep the cold away from your second life skull. It's the Hair Fair! That's 4 sims full of new hairstyles, and a good deal of bandanas! Creators donate a portion of sales from their items to Wigs for Kids. There are also many generous gifts set out, not just hair, some outfits too, but as these don't generate any monehs for the charity, please buy as well as picking up the goodies! The sims tend to be pretty full, so it can take a while (2 and bit days for me) trying to get in. So worth it. Here's a selection of some of my favourite finds. Sadly not all, there's another hair I bought that I love, yet there are some issues with the mesh, and segments of the hair, which are there when grey inbetween the colour changes on the included HUD but vanish once the colour all rezzes. I'm waiting on a response from the vendor, but if any of our lovely readers here have any ideas - please scrawl away in the comments section, it's much appreciated!. Anyway. On with the hair!

Clawtooth: Cosmic Love - Dusty Black (Hair Fair Gift). This hair is not mesh, it has a nice flow, not too 'done' as a hairstyle, which gives it a realistic feel. The colour is pretty too, not a harsh or too solid black at all.

 

[COLORS] Free D LightPink  Also a free gift, also not mesh. This is a very pretty, yet edgy style, and the creator has generously included 12 colours in the gift, each with a normal version, and one with a resize script.

::Exile:: Silent Wings: Blacks L$250 with 20% to Wigs for Kids. This is a beautifully designed mesh hair. While I rarely use a mesh enabled viewer for my general non-pic taking SL, I could NOT pass up buying this. The hair falls gracefully, and the feathers are stunning. The Blacks colour pack includes five colours, here I'm wearing 'Raven'. Alpha layers are included for hiding any pesky bits of skin, and the feathers are separate mesh, so the hair can be worn without them.

Heartless: Eva Hair (Midnight Collection) L$ 180  15% to Wigs for Kids. Another non-mesh hair - so glad to see that beautiful styles are still being made! Pack contains six colours, here I'm wearing the Dark Purple. The style reminds me of some old favourites I lost years ago. Very glad to have something similar again!

The skin worn here in these pictures is : S u g a r : StarChild [sugar] - red brow - L$799. As ever, available at the store in different shades and lots of lovely add-ons, cleavage and makeup- new location again - http://slurl.com/secondlife/The%20Slums/153/74/70

[lotn: red right hand]

Take a litle walk to the edge of town
Go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms,
like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires...


Hey man, you know
you're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge,
past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with
a red right hand.
