fyi punk should be diy. if any of my followers wanna dress punk but feel like they cant because its expensive, here's the secret: a good punk look can and should be made out of literal junk. old bottle caps, safety pins. i recently asked my sister if she'd give me some spare key rings so i could join them up with mine and make a longer chain (its attached to my favorite pair of pants rn). if something doesnt feel shiny and pointy and punk enough, stab it with some safety pins. make your own patches out of spare fabric scraps. cut the logos and patterns off of shirts and turn them into patches. pick up some cheap basic embroidery stuff (thread, needle, bamboo ring, thats all you need--hell you dont even need the ring its just helpful) to sew your patches on & make some of your own. or just embroider right on your clothes! it doesnt have to look good. most real punk patches are self-made with wonky lettering. you can get a good leather jacket, denim jacket, vest, etc at your local thrift store. you can try chains like savers and you can try non-chain shops. (btw thrift shops arent just for clothes, theyre lifesavers in general. i got my favorite table for $15 at savers. its old and ornate with carved designs and shit. please shop at thrift stores theyre the best thing ever.) also, when i was younger i remember i made my own spiky bracelets out of studded ribbon (cheap, get it at joanns or some other fabric or crafts store) and safety pins to hold it together. dont waste money on fucking hot topic. you can make your own shit. thats what punk is all about. i promise anyone judging you for having handmade punk clothes and accessories is a fucking poser.

thank you so much for posting these refs here!! i'm excited to incorporate the info into the designs of my Black ocs :D

one question, in the case of these braids below, how is the spiral shape maintained? i believe i've seen shaped hair with wires before but wasn't sure if that would be the case here

Hello! So the spiral shape could be maintained in many ways! Depending on how abstract people CAN just braid wires into the style so it bends sure, but because our hair is so naturally thick, it holds shape well so we don’t really need too! For example, thicker spiral braids are are secured with pins then submerged in hot water so they keep there shapes for longer, like this:

While the thinner ones like I depicted, can be achieved and maintained with heat, hair gel, and hairspray! Simply braiding the hair, applying gel while bending the hair, and then adding heat/hairspray to secure it keeps it locked in place for some time!

English: We the artists, we are hours making art with a lot of effort and love, and we are not here to see someone who just take it and steal all that from us.

I have gone through this stage horribly in which a drawing or writing of my property has been stolen and I do not wish it on anyone.

I dedicate to support the art of others and those people I spend time with have been through this hell.

Español: Nosotros los dibujantes y artistas nos esforzamos mucho sin importar la fama y no estamos como para que venga alguien a robarnos horas de cariño y esfuerzo

horriblemente he pasado por esta etapa en la que han robado un dibujo o escrito de mi pertenencia y no se lo deseo a nadie.

Me dedico también a ayudar artistas y a esas personas con las que paso el tiempo han pasado por este infierno.

falling headfirst and knee-deep into a new fandom when i have exams right around the corner is crazy work actually (GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HE)

It shouldn’t be surprising that writers have some of the best strike signs in existence
