Mood Hair

The qualities associated with the blonde and the brunette stereotypes are also mixed, so that the ditzy blonde may be seen as less scatterbrained and the brunette as less anal retentive. In either case, highlights can make a shemale seem less one-dimensional and more well-rounded, so to speak. Streaked hair, on the other hand, is apt to give the shemale character a wild look.

To enhance the color of a shemale's hair, the writer should mention, in his or her description of the scene, other items in the setting that match or come close to matching the shade of the shemale's hair. For example, if she is a blonde, the writer might point out--in a subtle manner, of course--that her goldilocks' color resembles that of the bright sunflowers in a vase near the couch upon which she is seated or in the corner of her boudoir, to which she has only just now repaired for sleep or sex.

The color can also be contrasted with another object in the setting. A brunette's dark locks might be juxtaposed in one's description of her living room with the yellow flowers in a mural above the couch or, if the chamber is a bedroom, on the sandstone-colored wall above the mahogany bed's headboard. Beauty is enhanced when it is related to other beautiful things; beauty borrows from beauty, as sexiness borrows from sexiness.

How does one describe hairstyles? One way is to look at websites that are devoted to hairstyles and examine the ways that their writers describe hairdos. Maybe make a list of adjectives that frequently appear. In addition, you might even keep a folder of images that depict various types of short, medium, and long hairstyles. One such site uses such adjectives as "shoulder-length," "styled thick and heavy," "lots of body," "wispy, jagged bangs," "layered," "eye=long fringe," "flippy," "clippy," "lowlights," "tapering," "clipped," "blunt," "tousled," "boyish," This site also names various styles: "beveled bob," "short nape," "kneaded bob," "choppy bob," "concave bob," "pixie," "coronet."
