Accidentally new phone

 Good evening!

I received my new phone in the mail today!

So me and my dad did a lil mistake when ordering it.

We thought that the contract I have with my number will just be renewed and now we did a seperate one for the phone and a new number.

Wellll...I was thinking for a while and there were just two options:

1.send this one back and get a different one with my current contract

2.keep this one and pay two contracts until my old one expires.

As weird as it sounds, I chose option 2.

To me it makes no sense to send it back and get another...I mentally was excited for this one.

It's a lil mistake and next time we learn from it but I really really wanted to keep this one.

So here it is!

Xiaomi 15!

I knew I definitely wanted a xiaomi again.

My old phone is almost 6 years old and I was so happy with it.

Unbelievable that I paid for the Redmi 8 around 300€ only maybe and it lasted me that long.

Technically I would have kept it! Me and my parents were talking about the wifi and then I told them that apparently (ChatGPT told me this) that the wifi issues I have are probably because my phone is so old and then we talked about getting me a new phone.

They wanted to gift me smth for christmas and my dad have shown me these contracts and the xiaomi 15 would have been a steal with all that included!

So I took it now.

It's a teeny tiny bit smaller.

At first I wanted to get the xiaomi 14 pro+ but when I saw this offer I had to grab it.

They only offered it in mint but honestly..my old phone was an aurora light blue shade and I wore cases all the time anyway so who really cares.

I actually have 4 cameras now instead of only one and honestly I mainly watch out for camera + space + speed and that's it, since I am not a technical person.

I will be using the case they send the phone with until I can get a pretty one.

I normally always had the struggle to find a pretty one since my phone was just so old...now I don't find pretty ones cuz the phone is too new lmao.

compared to the back of my old phone:

3 cameras + finger sensor.

Do you see a difference in the picture quality? :D

They send the offer with additional earbuds and honestly they are siiick.

I used to have old samsung ones my mum gave to me and now with the mi buds I have volume like on half and it still is a whole lot louder compared to full volume with the old ones!!

I am having a disco club inside my head.

I am currently still setting everything, which will take a while probably but I am sooo damn happy <33

If it wasn't for the slight mistake of the contract I prob wouldn't have gotten this phone (since it is actually really pricey to me) but now I have it haha.

tomorrow I drive to my cousin to bavaria...will keep you updated <3.

Fuki fan post

 Hellow!

I had this post so long in my draft lmao...I just forgot about this but I saw this pic in my timeline today and thought since I already did an appreciation post yesterday I can do another.

I love Fuki so much for many reasons.

She is just so gal but in an elegant way..which obviously speaks to me, cuz I also like to be more elegant.

some of her meikus are very natural and sometimes you question if it still can be considered gal then? 

I personally would say yes.. I talked with Ray about this and we both agreed that what gal really is and not depends on how high your standards are for the style.

For example in this picture she doesn't wear typical gal makeup, but she has a brown droop with eyeshadow and there was a time around maybe 2021 (?) where gals literally cut out lower lashes completely from their meiku..considering this, this meiku can still count as gal?

Everything else is on point? but I do get, it isn't "extreme", so most don't get a dopamine kick out of it.

But well...I am just talking back and forth at this point haha

I like to take historical context of gal into consideration but also keep in mind that gyaru is different today, today it looks like it looks.

Heisei =/= Reiwa.

I was going through her X timeline and saved some of my fav pics of her.

Despite being a Loalo model and like I mentioned in my other post "having tits and butts" in the camera all the time, sometimes the personal character of her peaks through.

For example when she pictures herself with friends or little kids (still not sure if she has a kid herself, sometimes there videos of her with a baby?).

Maybe it is just fake of her to get engagement of the males that follow her account but she posts about history etc. and wonders a lot..it makes her more real?

Also real of her is how she openly talks about the "difficult" aspects of being gyaru. 

"every morning it's so early and I am so tired but I still put on make-up. I am so motivated! but really I am so tired, I will go back to sleep. Good night".

That was posted during her photoshoots with Loalo.

She repeatedly talks about struggles like this.

It kinda reminds me a bit of ageha vibes.

she is so adorable <3

"Non-gyaru makeup. Maybe it's time to test how "gyaru" something has to be before people start calling it gyaru"

The automatic translations are always a little bit off but it helps putting the posts into some context.

when she was back home.

Fun how she looks so basic and her nails are peeking out like "don't be fooled" haha.

I also like how she has a "healthy" tan...she does not look extremely kuro like the others.

Only critical point from my side: her foundation is wayyy to light.

When you look at her body, she is tan!! but her makeup whitewashes her a lot :/

who is your current fav gyaru?

Underrated gals

Hellow!

This morning I went to the hisalo..

I was confused why I didn't get tanner bcuz I can clearly remember that a few years ago I could go very dark just with the tanning booth and I wondered what did I do different? xD

I worked it out with ChatGPT (of course) and seems like I need to break the "plateau".

Waah..I didn't know terms like this exist wth?

I probably used to break my plateau all the time accidentally and now that I try to tan regularly I probably just maintain the existing tan..

2 things I will try do different: 

1.use an accelerator..I was lazy I skipped this part

2.and if I feel comfy and safe with it, go longer for 25 minutes in it.

I always thought over 20 minutes will be too much but it seems for my skintype 25 minutes is just fine.

Going to look for a diff accelerator if this one doesn't work out properly.

This morning I browsed a lil through X on my gal account (that pretty much just exists provisional) and saw a couple of my fav gals online.

I feel like they are underrated, bcuz I never see them mentioned anywhere?

Not on blogs, not on pinterest etc.

So here is a lil appreciate post <3

 Ritapo

She is one of the staff of the gal cafe 10nsion!

I love her hair and overall style...she is such a cute gal really.

These are more current pics but she always puts some colorful exte in to her blonde.

Haguki

Maybe it has smth to do with her being a xxx-worker but she nearly never receives any attention.

Which would be a weird reason since AV gals got and still get featured online (i.e. pinterest) a lot, just look at serina/cocona.

Her makeup is so unique, you rarely see someone draw their droop like this and her nails are absolute awesome...maybe I do smth with foils again...watching this set like that.

Mix Berry

She is also a staff member of 10nsion.

I mostly like her cuz of her hair haha.

Her selfies look all the same and I feel like she edits her face too much but she has a wild vibe despite being shiro (which is unusual nowadays with gyaru style).

Chunri

She is also a xxx-worker, caution when going through her profile..she and monron post a lot of porn content on X.

I am not sure what exactly they do, they keep posting that link of cityheaven but it is blocked for me.

If I have to make sense out of the info I receive through their posts, it is most likely a club or a platform where you can book the gals.

Even tho this should have been an appreciation post, can I also criticize smth at this point? lmao

Is it just me who has porn fatigue within gyaru?

It had always a sexual aspect to it (although many gaijins, especially the younger ones, are in denial about this) but I feel like you cannot really look at any gal account without having tits and butts in your face lmao.

It doesn't matter wether they are from the gal cafe, loalo, nuts, egg etc.

If they don't post straight up porn, they do post naughty selfies and gravure pics.

Maybe it has smth to do with gyaru being a niche nowadays and this is how they make their money.

I bet a lot of them try attracting papa katsus with these posts...but I miss the creative aspect gal used to have and mentioned.

That's what I love about Chopa.

When you check her youtube it is just fun and makeup and she is all giggling and stuff and that content makes you happy.

I love reiwa style just as much as heisei but obviously I am straight and don't want to have nudes all over my timeline 24/7 lmao.

How do you even explain that?

someone looks over your shoulder and sees a half naked gal on your screen giving head or smth and you just nod like 

"she has pretty hair" xD

Thats how it feels like to me lmao

well c-ya

Tried a new meiku

 Hellow! I have holiday now <3

For today I planned not much besides relaxing and then in the morning I thought of trying the meiku I was trying to do the past few days but didn't bcuz I thought it might be too much for work.

I honestly love it haha

close up...used my spark lenses for this..

So the pics weren't good until for a short moment the sun went up and then some of the pics finally looked good haha

I have been watching lots of Chopas eyemeiku tutorials on YT and took some inspiration of it.

Might make a tut on this one as well for my blog <3

listened to my halloween playlist while taking pictures

The meiku in action haha

If you haven't added it to your spotify, here is the playlist again <3

Yesterday I wore my honeybun browns without liner or anything else...just glitter on the lid and tearbag and my lashes...it looked so different whaa...but also very dolly haha.

The other past days I did a pink version of my "koala" meiku that I did a tutorial on here.

Unfortunately I didn't take pics but might show some other day.

Guess what? I bought a new wig lol

I was thinking very hard about how to fix the mess on my head for the past weeks.

And although I had more or less a plan, I did not feel good about it at all.

I believe some of the hair in the back snapped more...

I wondered why suddenly it was so thick and if it was already that thick back in may but now I am sure it wasn't. There are most likely more hairs that have snapped since then.

But also on the back of my head, the top layer is pretty much dead.

The front looks very weird too because of the bangs I had cut and now grow out.

Pretty much the only thing making my hair look long and like...smth...is the middle front sections.

And I am afraid I will break them too if I continue.

I thought about using extensions but then I will have the problem with blending them again since my own hair is quite thick already.

I remembered how nice it was to wear wigs.

It was so low maintenance I swear to god.

The only reason why I did not continue was because I wasn't good in making 13x4 laces look neat on my head and when using blonde wigs...you need to make it neat.

With my black wig I didn't have issues blending it in, because I took some hair of my own on the sides.

My black wig had a 4x4 lace instead of 13x4 and 13x4 also looks very bad on my head, I would prefer 13x6.

Another reason was that my own hair got really thick, so it is impossible to wear a wig on my head if I do not braid it underneath. 

I tried looking for the blonde wig I made a couple years ago to check again if I could use it but couldnt find it (:

Another reason was that I want it to be secure but not too tight, I couldnt go swimming or need to be careful that nothing pulls on the wig that could snatch it off.

I watched a couple videos and think I found the solution to my problems.

Some women sew them down on their braided hair underneath!!

and they show how they do it on a 13x4 lace..

no glue, no gel and very secure.

And tbh, it took me a while until I made my black wig blend in too...thats just how experimenting works.

since my other blonde disappeared in nirvana I have to buy a new one.

I found one that seems like a steal:

-613 color (so I can tone it)

-13x6inch lace 

(I measured my head, the 6 inches will work a ton better than just 4)

-24 inch long

(mainly because I still have bundles of 613 left, if the hair is too thin I can add some rows)

-220% density

-HD lace

-Remy hair

all that fun for "only" 130€...I mean wigs like that would normally cost around 500€ or more.

That's a steal! but also nervous if it turns out to be cheap shit like the price would suggest.

I am not quite sure how I will tone the wig...I will probably use a pack of the hairdye I just got and put the wig in the bath.

I also ordered more silicone-tape, that had worked amazing last time and if I want to sew it down, I do not need to worry about it moving around too much.

And blonde thread, the black would probably peek out too much...didnt know blonde thread exists but I think that's awesome lmao.

So thats the news about my hair haha.

My mum offered me to braid my hair down.

I will see how long I can leave it on without itching and smell appearing.

Will keep you updated.

please pray for me because I have no other alternative and I really want it to remain blonde.
