Put your hands in your pockets!
I seem to be all about free and cheap hair lately!
Firstly, with regard to the Exile Hair group gifts that I blogged yesterday: please read the edit on my previous post [ link ], as it seems that people are picking up the wrong item from the subscribe-o-matic and assuming the gift has been removed. It hasn’t been removed – it was re-packed and sent out again later because something was wrong with the original notice!
OK, onto today’s deal!
I sent Roxie out for a quick jaunt (mainly to make sure she grabbed that huge Exile Hair giveaway) and ended up at Pocket Mirrors, where she found some fab dollarbie and giftie hair.
Pocket Mirrors has an unusual style, and you should visit the store especially if you’re a lover of vintage hairstyles.
The dollarbie is a brilliantly-mad curled and knotted up-do called Myrtle, which comes in three colours: brick, light blonde, and majestic:

Myrtle is the dollarbie, available to all. The remaining four styles are group gifts rezzed on the side walls of the store’s lobby area. Paste this link into chat and click it to bring up the group-join window (it’s free-to-join) and, with your group tag active, head to the Pocket Mirrors store and click the walls to receive the following:
The cute, 50s bobbed fringe Louise style really made me think of Sandy Olsson (Olivia Newton John’s pure and innocent character in Grease, before John Travolta’s Danny Zuko corrupted her!). It’s modifiable, so you can tint the headband to match the rest of your outfit. The gift hairstyle comes in one colour: mocha –
The Scarlet style is a perfect vintage semi up-do. It, too, is modifiable and – being such a pale colour (light blonde is the shade of the group gift) – you could easily tint it a different shade:
Boys! Your turn! Firstly, I apologise for Roxie’s male version looking a bit rough around the edges. I do try to put together a good male look, to show items for the guys off to their best advantage, but poor Roxie has limited resources in that area!
First up for the men is the swept-back Eric style, available in dark brown:
And secondly there’s the great semi-‘hawk Samuel style in strawberry (presumably that means strawberry blond!). This is only the ‘hawk, so you might want to find a light-coloured hairbase to wear underneath it, if you don’t have one:
