Photos of the short and choppy hair

I acquired that new short and choppy Maxis hair, and since [profile] pixel_and_bean  requested that I share some better photos of the style, I did a little photoshoot with Jaxy.

(I'd like to suggest DYtD as the background music here. Check them out - they're a great band, and I use them as one of my sources of inspiration for Jaxy and Llama Dance Party.)





Who better to model this style than Jaxy Rai, who I would consider the poster girl for such a style. Not to say that a straight girl wouldn't wear her hair like this, but it seems more typical of a lesbian or maybe a hairstylist. Or perhaps a girl who has a hairstylist for a girlfriend. It's also a very suitable style for a rocker like Jax, don't you think?

Now, for some more descriptive shots...










(Oops! You can see my workspace back there. That's like letting the boom mic fall into the shot during a film shoot. :P)








Yeah, I like it. I like it a lot.

I gave her a nose piercing, and it seems to suit her. I'd imagine she might have a tongue stud too, if only sims had tongues. *snicker* But they don't.






Oh, and the shirt is a tank by fanseelamb and the pants are by migamoo.


Now, as a bonus question...




Jaxy and Zoe were getting a little cozy, as they often do (triple bolters, don't you know), and this happened:




That's a memory for "kissed Jasmine for the first time", which left me a little confused. That was not the first time they kissed. Not by a long shot.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this? What could be causing it, I wonder?

Yeah, there's something about that whole Sims 2 Store application that creeps me out, but you seem to have no problem with SuckRom, so I hope your luck holds out for you.

I'd love to see some Ikea Stuff spam if you feel like indulging me.

It's funny you say that, since I said something above about how I always prefer short hair on my females and tend to avoid all that long, long cc hair. I like that the store has nice short hair. :P We seem to have very different tastes that way.

Well so far so good with EA Store Game and all of that. *whew* I had a scary moment at first, when I thought it wouldn't load, but then I realized I needed to click on the new Ikea icon. :P

Gotta cook dinner for my spawn, but tonight I'll be back in and do some EA Store/Ikea spam. I'm looking forward to seeing what's in there as well!

Posting to say that I love Jaxy's new style (the clothes, hair and nose piercing), and also that I love MATY. Shh.

When I saw your link to that Sims 2 Store (I don't drop by the main site very much), I told my SO that 'I bet MATY has already uploaded these', and then I scrolled down your comment section, and yeah.

Wouldn't it? They should have that with Sims 3.

I have looked more and still can't find it. I wonder if it got taken back down. Now I'm really curious, so I'm going to post a WCIF.

wow! That's a perfect style for Jaxy! <3
I do mean the whole deal, but the hair in particular is just awesome. :)

How weird and cool. :P Thanks for sharing.

*applauds* Congratulations on getting married! And I love the idea of combining your last names into a new one. :D That's awesome.

My hubby ([livejournal.com profile] yetanotherbob) and I got married on a shoestring budget. I plain lucked out on my wedding dress (late in a giant sale at a closing outlet, and all the stuff in MY size was still in stock, mwahahahaha!), star wars music, friend of a friend hired to perform the ceremony, another friend of a friend semi-hired to do the photography (he got to keep copies for his portfolio). . . . I could babble on about elements of it for hours, but I really don't remember much of the actual event.

Eek! That hair is so fabulous! I LOVE IT. :D :D Suits Jaxy so well too. Feminine yet edgy. :D
