Bangs have been a stylish option in many forms throughout the “ages.” From the ancient times of Cleopatra, to the silent movie era of Louise Brooks, or on to the sexy Bettie Page or 1960′s mod Julie Christie- we can see how bangs have timelessness as well as a period feel.
When styling more textured bangs like Jennifer Lopez or Julie Christie:

The Get Up Kids is one of my all time favorite bands that influenced me in more ways than I can count. I am happy to hear they will be getting back together for a reunion tour. So many great memories of friends, band tees, converse shoes and amazing rock shows.
The Get Up Kids will be playing at Neumos on Sept 18th. Be sure to get you tickets to this epic show at at frontgatetickets.com. Check out their video for Action Action below!

Local bloggers cap to the hill won a prize to throw a $10,000 party in remembrance of the block of Pine street between Belmont and Boylston that is now the People’s Parking Lot. Details are still in the making, but the they are planning the event in mid August. More information can be found at the captothehill blog post or on the Capitol Hill Seattle blog post. I think this party should be in honor of Capitol Hill’s vibrant blogger culture!

In his current movie, Public Enemies, Johnny as Dillinger sports a replication of a classic criminal haircut oft seen in the “public enemy” criminals of the Great Depression era.
Dillinger’s hair was much finer than Depp’s and was faded alot higher and tighter on the sides and in the back.
I have a client or two who love and wear the WWII/Great Depression-era haircut. The rockabilly scene cut isn’t too far from this cut either.

Here are some pictures of an amazing job that Marissa did providing her client with some extreme HariLoc hair extensions. The client’s natural hair is very fine and ends just below her shoulders.
Great job Marissa!

Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson is one of the great novels of the Cyberpunk genre. Written in 1992, Snow Crash depicts an online world called the Metaverse that in many ways was very prescient of our current environment (Second Life, Facebook, etc) and where we are quickly heading.
Beyond its depiction of the future of computing, the novel is a very well written, filled with witty and endearing prose including an entire diatribe on the belief of everyman that at some point in his life he could become worlds biggest badass. He also paints a semi-distopian world where government and religions have devolved into a series of dysfunctional businesses and the Mafia pretty much rules everything.
Keep in mind that with a main character named Hiro Protagonist who is a part time hacker and ninja, the book is rife with cliches, but most of these were included before they ever became cliches. With the exception of William Gibson’s Neuromancer, Snow Crash is probably the most definitive novel in the entire cyberpunk genre.

This year’s line up looks amazing from Olympia’s The Gossip, to SXSW’s buzz band of the year The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, and the always amazing Sonic Youth who will be closing out Saturday evening’s mainstage performance. This is sure to be the year to attend the Capitol Hill Block Party.
