I don’t know. Maybe it was the girl who wore them. I’m sure that she made them or that she liked to make them. Who knows? I doubt that they were invented by a flapper princess. Is the word “flapper” used a lot in movies? Flannys, to be sure. Flutterys are flapper princesses. It can […]
If you keep doing your standard routine of blowing your hair out it will get thick and long and it will feel so good. But I’m going to give you an example of what does NOT work. My short ponytail goes up in bunches, then I blow it out and it comes back down in […]
