TITLE: 나쁜 꿈 (Bad Dream) ARTIST: 언니네 이발관 (Sister’s Barbershop) ALBUM: 홀로 있는 사람들 (People who stay alone) - 2017
LYRICS (Korean + English)
오늘도 참 멋졌던 하루 난 심심해서 거릴 걷다가 너를 봤지 그런데 넌 날 지나치더니 가던 그 길을 가버렸어 난 상관도 않고
today was another splendid day feeling bored, i wandered the streets and then saw you but you walked right past me and continued on your way without a care for me
안녕을 말하는 넌 매직 난 이런 일엔 소질이 없는데 겪을 때마다 내 눈엔 언제나 매번 똑같은 게 흘러 내려
you, saying hello, are magic i have no talent for this kind of thing every time i go through this, the same thing falls from my eyes
니가 뭐라고 내게 “너라는 인생엔 더는 비밀이 없어” 분노가 밀려와 너의 헛소리 난 그저 말없이 듣고만 서 있네
who are you to tell me “there are no more secrets in that life of yours” rage washes over me at your gibberish i just stand around wordlessly listening to it
제발 생각 좀 해봐 니가 지금 무슨 말을 하는지
please think about it about exactly what you’re saying right now
거짓 말들이 오가는 하루 너는 잘 해낼거고 넌 대단하고
a day of lies going back and forth you’re going to do well and you’re amazing and
안돼를 말하는 넌 매직 난 이런 일엔 소질이 없는데 자꾸 반복해서 겪어봐도 어느새 두 눈엔 그게 흘러
you, saying no, are magic i have no talent for this kind of thing even though i’ve gone through this repeatedly, before i know it from my two eyes it falls
넌 또 뭐라고 내게 “니 어디에도 더는 비밀이 없어” 슬픔이 밀려와 너의 그 말에 그래도 말없이 듣고만 서 있네
who are you to tell me “there are no secrets left anywhere in you” sadness washes over me at your words but still i stand around listening to it
소리 내어 울어도 아무렇지가 않아지질 않아 어떡해
even if i cry out loud i can’t become indifferent to it, what do i do
니가 뭐라고 내게 “니 몸과 영혼 모두 쓸모가 없어” 분노가 밀려와 그대의 말에 그래도 난 그저 듣고만 서 있네
who are you to tell me “your body and soul are both useless” rage washes over me at your words but i just stand around listening to it
니가 대체 뭐라고 “너라는 사람 기억 나는 게 없어” 짜증이 밀려와 너의 헛소리 말없이 주먹만 불끈 쥐어 보네
exactly who are you to tell me “there’s nothing to remember about you as a person” annoyance washes over me at your gibberish i just make a fist to myself wordlessly
아무래도 난 (넌 어쩔 수가 없어) 벗어날 수 없겠지 숨막힐 듯 답답한 이곳 (늘 그래왔으니)
it seems like no matter what i (there’s nothing you can do) won’t be able to escape it this suffocatingly oppressive place (it’s always been like this)
바보같은 말 (누굴 가르치려 들어) 이나 듣고 살겠지
i’ll end up living my entire life (who are you trying to teach?) hearing idiotic drivel
날 안다고 말하는 사람들에게
from people who say they know me
아무래도 난 벗어날 수 없겠지 바보들이 가득한 이 곳 (니가 제일 바보야)
no matter what, i won’t be able to escape it this place filled with idiots (you’re the biggest idiot)
오늘같은 날 얼마든지 많겠지 결코 변하지 않을 곳에서
there will be more days like today, i’m sure in a place that will never change
숨막혀 숨막혀 이 곳의 모든 게
it’s suffocating, suffocating, everything about this place
너는 누구니
who are you

English Lyrics: Sister's Barbershop - Birthday Mood [Translation]
Today is my 20th birthday The strange thing is I feel fine Why is it that today I suddenly feel depressed
Today, I really, Really hate this feeling Really hate this feeling Today is my 20th birthday Eating with my friends, but I'm still unhappy
Walking home on the road as always, There are no stars, why is the sky so empty? I really hate this feeling Even though you congratulate me, I still really hate this
Today is no different from yesterday, but my feelings changed Tomorrow holds nothing for me I was so stupid After eating with my friends
Walking home on the road as always, There are no stars, why is the sky so empty? I really hate this feeling Even though you congratulate me, I still really hate this
Even though you all congratulate me, I still really hate this feeling Despite all of your congratulations

Mohamed’s sister and her family, seven people in total, are currently living inside a barbershop in the besieged Gaza Strip, where Israel’s massive attack continues to destroy lives and infrastructure.
There is no bathroom at the barbershop, and among the people living there are children. Mohamed, a truck driver from Calgary, is desperate to hear information from the Canadian government about when, or if, his relatives will be able to come to Canada.
He told The Maple that he applied to sponsor his sister and her family to come to Canada under a temporary resident visa program for extended family members in Gaza.
The Ministry of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced the program on January 9, and Mohamed said he filed his application on January 15. He has so far heard nothing.
As of March 4, a total of just 12 individuals from Gaza have been approved to come to Canada. They left Gaza “on their own,” according to the ministry, and were able to complete their applications and submit biometrics. The 12 individuals have to arrange their own passage to Canada, and none have yet arrived. [...]
Note from the poster @el-shab-hussein: Let it be known that Canada has done absolutely nothing to get Palestinian-Canadians out of Ghazzah. Absolutely nothing. They have to escape on their own, they have to find the means to travel back to Canada on their own. So of course they'd treat Palestinians with no Canadian citizenship like this. Canada treats its own citizens as foreigners when they're Palestinian. Canada is complicit in genocide.

Holly and Poppy O'Hair Headcanons
Holly’s full name is Holly Ivy O’Hair. Poppy’s full name is Poppy Hazel O’Hair. 
Poppy uses she/they pronouns.
The twins were tower-schooled before attending Ever After High. 
Holly is cursed to have all doors that close behind her magically lock her in. She has to keep her dorm room door wedged open. Poppy isn’t completely comfortable with this and prefers the door to be closed, but she lets Holly keep it open a crack. 
Poppy was definitely one of those girls who cut up their dolls’ hair.
Holly has ADHD, which makes damsel-in-distress class really difficult for her even though it’s her entire story. She also has a one-track mind. Once she starts on a subject, she will not stop talking. She uses reading and writing as an outlet for all the things buzzing through her head.
Poppy is the shier of the two. She’s more of a listener than a speaker, which comes in handy when Holly goes on a passionate rant. The only time she has no difficulty socializing is when someone is in the barber’s chair.
Holly’s a researcher of old folktales and ancient civilizations. The Wicked Step-Librarians have had to lock her out of the library for sneaking in after curfew and not being able to get out. 
While they are close, Poppy wants to carve her own identity separate from Holly. She doesn’t only want to be known as Rapunzel’s sister. She wants to make a name for herself and have an impact on other people as her own person.
Holly is a morning person. Poppy is not. 
Holly is sometimes insecure over having so much hair. She can’t avoid stepping on it, getting it snagged on something, and sometimes dragging on the floor. She envies Poppy for being free to cut her hair.
Multiples run in their family. Their mother is also a twin. She has an older twin brother named Tarragon, but she got the Rapunzel destiny because she was female.
Holly has had a crush on all three Charming siblings at one point or another. 
Poppy was closer with Nanny Nona than Holly. Holly was wild and fidgety, frustrating Nona to no end. Poppy was the calmer of the two and thus got along better with Nona. Holly and Nona still get frustrated with each other from time to time.
Poppy loves spicy foods. She’s almost obsessed with them.
Their music choices differ drastically. Holly likes country pop music. Poppy is more into punk rock. However, they both share the same favorite artist: Dolly Charmton. Poppy plays the song “Midnight to Noon” to get her pumped up in the morning.
Poppy’s a great climber. She sometimes goes beanstalk climbing with Jillian. 
Holly is slightly taller than Poppy. 
Rapunzel and her husband work as the fairytale equivalents of district attorneys. As such, Holly and Poppy don’t get to see their parents very often - especially their mom - and it’s why they were left in the care of Nanny Nona. 
Holly does tutoring in Creative Writing.
Despite working in a literal barbershop, Poppy does not like barbershop music. 
Holly does not do things halfway and always takes the long road. She struggles in areas that don’t interest her, but she’s reluctant to take shortcuts. Her mother drilled into her head that “you can’t climb a tower if your hair is too short.” But Poppy tries encouraging her to “work smarter, not harder”.
Poppy has a thing for “baddies”. She used to have a crush on Sparrow, but got over him quickly when she found out he preferred Holly over her. She also has feelings for Duchess despite knowing she was voted “Most Likely to Steal Your Destiny.” Deep down, she knows it’s a problem.  
Holly theorized Daring wasn’t Apple’s Prince Charming but kept it to herself. The only person she told was Poppy. She was pretty happy when she found out she was right. 
Both sisters are devoted dragon moms.
They’re both very nervous for when their destiny comes to pass. Holly is a bit wary of living a lie; that she’s technically stealing her sister’s destiny. She’s also having some pre-guilt about blinding her future prince. Poppy is doing everything in her power to keep anyone from finding out the truth, because she wants to keep the life she’s been building for herself.

hiii i made a barbershop quartet family; Ace in the Hole!
during the great escape, the triplets (10 years old) found Tilt when she was 3. they'd all been separated from their own families, so the brothers took in a new little sister!
Tilt is jazz/rock, while the brothers are pop/jazz and one day singing together while doing chores they learnt they made a damn good quartet and created a group (around when the triplets were 17, sister 10)
they travel around performing for different troll towns
the quartet has a soothing effect on wildlife, so hostile animals too close to town get sung to sleep to be relocated safely
since she'd lost her family so young, the brothers are very doting and protective of her
while out hanging up laundry alone Boston got attacked and lost a leg; as a result Chip and Snap gained grey hairs when they saw him (some colour came back when Boston recovered, but it'll never fully revert)
Chip is the most talkative, once he starts it's hard to stop him
Snap is the quickest to act upon hug time with his siblings, he's very physically affectionate
Tilt's tail is skinnier n less powerful than pure rock trolls and can only hold lightweight objects (female rock trolls can hang upside down by their tails on branches, she can't) (i specify bio females bc their tails are actually long and can do that)
ermm i think that's all for now i love barbershop quartets and i love this family an awful lot

As a Christian born and bred it's always been a constant thought of mine of what if I had been born into a different faith, how that would change the person I am. What if I slid the faith settings from Christian to Muslim?
Brother, if you change the attitude now, not much will change. Now you're not going to trim your dick, I guess. You will grow a beard. And your Muslim brothers will despise you as a convert a little less than an infidel. So, in fact, we have to intervene in your history. Your parents separated shortly after you were conceived. Your mother fell in love with a Syrian refugee for whose sake she converted to Islam and married him before you were born. So even though your gene pool is unchanged, your social and religious background is a completely Muslim one.
Your father was not particularly devout. But your mother and sisters had to learn early on that women are subservient to men. And you, as the prince of the family, were carried around by everyone. A wish? Already fulfilled! Fortunately, your father quickly found a job as an engineer and was able to finance everything you wanted. In return, however, you were trimmed to be macho right from the start. Politeness and respect towards your parents. But you never had to show respect to infidels in particular. This probably also explains your somewhat divided relationship to the observance of rules and laws.
Your home is the shisha bar, the gym and Hassan's barbershop. That's where you meet friends and where you do business. Let's say you make your money importing and exporting. Of different things. Mostly with the help of cousins in Syria, Lebanon and Turkey.
Tumblr media
Except for the blond hair and your Swedish passport, you are one of your bros. Hardly a difference. Okay, maybe you're in the mosque a bit more often than them… But that's normal if you grew up with a convert as a mother.
By the way, I found your picture @truevikingblood-blog too.

i love how my family is treating my transition as a little adventure for all of us. i say that with complete sincerity. i know a lot of people don’t have supportive families, so i often take the time to just appreciate it. i feel very blessed to have a mother who wants to pick out a new wardrobe for me, a brother who is making plans for us to visit his regular barbershop together if my beard comes in (he has even checked that the barbers are lgbt friendly), sisters who constantly check my progress and want me to record voice changes, and a father who makes up fun new nicknames with my chosen name.

Hey Wormblr.
.....Do not get emotional about the thought of Brian and Aisha being the ones to braid each other's hair.
Do not think about "Tough manly man but not like my Dad was" Brian learning how to style his little sisters' hair for her because his apartment was in E88 territory and there definitely weren't any black barbershops or hairdressers nearby.
Do not think about Aisha not actually having anybody that knows how to do that for her left in her life after Gold Morning.

I Am Not My Hair
Tumblr media
What actually happens if I shave my head bald?
Why cant I see what I look like without hair?
Why do I have to be sick or have cancer or be dying?
Why am I not allowed as a woman to just shave my head?
Why do I need a reason, a justification, an explanation?
Why do I have to justify being hairless?
Why are people acting like Im dying and have cancer just because Im bald?
Tumblr media
Nothing happens. Thats the gag.
Youve been taught to fear.
Its just my bald head. Why is that forbidden?
Verboten?
Why cant I ever see what my actual head looks like without all this hair on it?
Tumblr media
Why cant I see what my face looks like without it constantly being surrounded by hair?
What if I like being bald?
What if I like not spending $1200+ a year on my hair?
What if I like not styling my hair?
What if I like not doing anything with my hair other than cutting it super short, about an inch or two, every few months?
Why does it threaten people for a woman not to care about her hair?
I dont want to go to a hair salon or barbershop.
I dont want to go back to an afro.
Tumblr media
I dont want locs or dreads.
I dont want shaved sides, I already did that last year.
I dont want corn rows or bantu knots, Ive done that too.
I dont want to grow it out.
I dont want a $500 lace front wig.
I dont want a wig professionally installed by a stylist every 2 to 3 months.
I dont want to wash or brush my hair.
I dont want to put any products in my hair.
Why is it a sin for a black woman to not want to grow her hair out?
Tumblr media
I dont want my "long beautiful" hair back.
I dont want it halfway down my back again.
I dont want it to my waist again.
I dont want to relax it again -- there are lawsuits against Loreal, black women who used Just For Me and other chemical relaxers to straighten their hair are being diagnosed with cancer, inferitility and fibroids.
The chemicals in a relaxer are strong enough to break down and destroy the natural texture of your curly coiled kinks and force it to be straight -- those same chemicals are also strong enough to literally peel paint off of cars -- why are you putting this directly on your scalp for an hour plus every 2 to 3 months from the time you are a pre-teen or in high school until adulthood, for decades, and thinking that there wont be health issues?
They target products to Black women that kill them.
Remember the little Black girls that sang the R&B pop jingle in the Just For Me commercial?
"Just for me...hair so healthy, silky and free."
Who was that song for?
Tumblr media
This was the 90s and there were multiple Black girl groups back then -- TLC, 702, Blaque, Xscape, Jade, Total, MoKenStef, etc. -- they wanted to get us while we were young so we would keep using their products until adulthood. 
I got my first perm, I am 4C, at 11. I was so glad my mother stopped burning me with the hot comb that she had tortured me with since I was 5. Anything was better than that as I had a very sensitive scalp or "tenderheaded" as it is called in our community.
I couldnt wait to go to Touch of Magic salon where my older sister already had her long, silky hair. I was tired of being tortured by a hot ass comb that was constantlu burning my fucking scalp and I was tired of being told to "sit still" while my scalp was being fucking burned. I couldnt wait for the Revlon Fabulaxer so the dreaded golden hot comb could be forever banished from my existence.
From 11 to 34, 23 years, I faithfully got  a relaxer at the salon every 2 to 3 months. It was about $120+ (relaxer, deep condition, style, split ends, color, etc.). Over the years, that fucking adds up, over $100k I spent on my hair. Even when I went natural at 34, my 4c hair is extremely thick, kinky, nappy, unruly and very difficult to deal with. People have literally broken combs trying to comb through it. Needless to say, I couldnt manage anything myself but a wash and go so I spent thousands at the salon as a 4c natural on Senegalese twists, box braids, Bantu knots, corn rows, twist outs, twist updos and flat twists. 
Then I shaved my sides and cut my hair super short and started going to barber shops but I was dyeing it fuschia back then so my hair was still costing me money.
Tumblr media
Then last year, I finally just grabbed kitchen scissors out of my kitchen and hacked it myself and decided I was never going to go back to a salon or barbershop.
I was going to cut my hair with kitchen scissors myself every 2 to 3 months. I do like different looks so I have five cheap synthetic shitty wigs that are different colors (blue, blonde, green, black). Depending on the lewk and fit, either I just wear my hair natural and short or I slap a wig on.
Tumblr media
But thats it. No maintenance, no upkedp, no hair care routines, no wasting away a Saturday at a salon, no barbershops, no wash and gos, no 15 hour sessions getting braided extensions. 
Just literally cutting it with kitchen scissors every 2 to 3 months and slapping on a cheap shitty wig whenever I have a certain fit or lewk and thats it.
Then in August, I decided to shave my head bald. I didnt want even a few inches of hair anymore so I grabbed my husbands razor and shaved it. Didnt go to a barbershop or stylist. Had no idea how to even use the razor and just shaved it all off in under 10 minutes. I loved the bald look especially with thick ass winged liquid eyeliner, bold dramatic eyeshadow and colorful lipstick.
Tumblr media
I have a few inches of growth that in a month or two, I will grab the kitchen scissors again and cut my hair down to an inch or two. Ill do that every few months. I love it bald but even shaving my head on a regular basis is more time than I choose to devote to my hair. Cutting it with scissors to an inch or two every 2 to 3 months is my absolute limit.
As a woman, thats not allowed.
Especially as a Black woman.
And I was raised by a Southern Baptist fundamentalist, so forget about it.
You have to obsess over your hair, products, styling, color, length, look, appearance, texture, curl pattern, thickness, volume, care routines, pre poo, deep conditoning, tea tree oil, diffusing, texturizing, blow out, straightening, relaxing, lace front wig installations, weaves, kanekalon, bundles, braids, twists, locs, dreads, corn rows, bantu knots...
You cant just not do your hair!
Only you can. Because thats exactly what I do.
Even as a Black woman and we are brainwashed to be absolutely obsessed with our hair.
Go back and look at the hysteria India Arie caused when she shaved her "beautiful curls".
Just like India Arie, I am not my hair.

141 and their Fragrances
I am a perfume junkie so I have authority on this. I mostly went by brand and then chose their signature scent from that.
Price
He is a D.S & Durga man. Bottles look simple, just masculine enough without being over powering but also not afraid of being a little floral. Kate recommended the brand because she hated his normal cologne. His signature scent is Burning Barbershop with top notes of spearmint, lime and spruce. Heart notes of lavender absoulte, tuberrose and turkish rose. Base notes of Vaniila, burnt oil and hay. He also likes Radio Bombay (woody, copper) as a date scent and Leatherize (leather, floral) for sex.
Kyle 'Gaz' Garrick
Kyle (In my headcanon) is a film buff so of course he would be drawn to Vilhelm Parfumerie's Basilico & Fellini by name alone. Kyle likes fresh, green scents so with notes of dragon fruit, basil, violet, wild fig, vetiver and green hay he was sold. He also loves the cheeky names of Body Paint (fruity), Morning Chess (green) and London Funk (woody). Takes a lot of pride in having a variety of scents so mostly travel sizes.
Johnny 'Soap' Mactavish
After being told (multiple times) by his sister that he had to move on from the cheap body spray of his youth. He found Unknown Pleasures by Kerosene and bought it from looks alone. He ended up really liking the earl grey gourmand scent. He does admittedly like how rugged the bottles look compared to the scent. He's not a collector like the others but does also have Blackmail (Sweet Fruity) and Winter of 99 (Spicy Vanilla).
Simon 'Ghost' Riley
Simon of course loves musky, animalistic and even downright weird scents. Off duty he wants his smell to stick around after him. Something that makes people a little on edge around him. He also has a sense of humor so Fantomas by Nasomatto is his day to day off duty with notes of rubber, plastic, melon, smoke, gunpowder, candy, earth and patchouli. It's weird and a little off putting but at least no one will ask what he's wearing. He also likes Duro (spicy, animalistic) from the same brand but he only wears that when he's out with Johnny a date.
