I feel like the following is a good example of "before and after the con" photos.
A failed selfie with
@Tally as Terezi. 8D Full of energy, makeup all pristine, ears fully attached, full of Starbucks at the con, WHOOO! No paint on my arms because we were too lazy to do a proper makeup test to figure out how to not have it rub off all over us so...screw that!
Looking like the living dead when I got home around 1am that same day. >_>
We went to watch the giant cosplay Masquerade and by the time about...11pm rolled around, I was dying. |: I was just sitting so I had nothing to distract me from what turned out to be
excruciating pain because I was wearing a headband under the wig, that my braids were attached to, and it was basically squeezing me right behind the ears. |: I endured it through most of the show, then finally reached the point of "CANNOT TAKE IT" and ripped my wig off and...>_> half of an ear, lmao. I got many odd looks on the way home because I looked like a hot mess BUT IT FELT SO GOOD OMG. That was Saturday and my head is still bruised behind the ears. |: So. Gonna sew those braids into the wig instead of, y'know...headband. It looked fabulous but felt like dying.
Anyway I saw myself in the mirror when I got home and just laughed. xD
