I really like the Olsen sisters examples. It shows that you can actually go against what you're supposed to be wearing according to your body types, but you have to actually KNOW what you're doing
Hi Aly, I love watching your videos to understand more about Kibbe!! This comment is unrelated to hair, but as a soft gamine can you introduce how we can have a minimal style for every day that incorporates more structured and relaxed silhouettes, like Winona Ryder's oversized style in the 90s, similar to naturals or classics without it looking unflattering. A lot of the style recommendations feel too girlish or soft and it's hard to find inspo for soft gamines in those lines as most examples are celebs at events hence more fancy, flashy outfits.
I love your videos, would you ever consider doing a kibbe tattoo aesthetic video? I know clothing is a main focus but it might be fun to see opinions on tattoos.
I think the brassy, reddish-orange blond was so popluar in the 90's because they couldn't go full on with the bleaching process of the without completely destroying the hair, except for people who already had lighter hair or very thick, robust darker hair naturally Over time, more and much better hair care products became available to take care of damaged hair, so hairdressers were able to lift the hair to a non-brassy blond, . Also, the bleaching process was significantly optimized through products like Olaplex to minimize the damage to a certain extend.
Hey Aly, soft gamine here. I also choose the Olsen's style, I like the Disney princess style. I'll go to my grave with long hair 😊. I think it's because I also take the essences theory into account and I have a bit of ingenue and ethereal, so I feel very much "myself" with that. I'm in no way comfortable going with modern bobs, even long bobs, and I have no desire of looking "contemporary" or "fashionista". Maybe someday you can do a video about certain "styles" or "images" that you want to project
I am SG with some Classic essence. I like my hair long. I don't like it straight, so most of the time it is like Reece Witherspoon's long blonde hair with waves, that you have shown, always kept a few inches below my shoulders. It has been my signature look all these years. I had a bob style when I was young, and I still prefer my long hair. If it drags me down, then so be it. At 67 I pretty much have a feel of what I like, and don't. I probably will never follow all the recommendations that Kibbe describes for my body type, but gradually implementing some. I have a larger chest, so I have always gone for V-necks to minimize. I don't know how I will feel going with a high neckline. I think learning my coloring was the biggest eye opener. I have always thought I was cool, because of fairer skin. So, it came as a surprise when I was typed warm and radiant. Now I can implement colors that I thought would not belong to me. I do love your videos, Alley.
I relate to this, I thought I was classic for a while because most of my answers are moderate but my face shape is more like Reece whitherspoon and so is my height and lines do look petite and soft so I am realizing I must be soft gamine. I love longer hair as well and hate high necklines as they feel restrictive. It would be hard to fully stick to the recommendations for soft gamine when I vibe with Classic and ethereal essences. I think I only vibes with Gamine pixie styles as a teen but don’t feel drawn to pixie cuts anymore.
Hey Aly, I would like to ask you to review the essence. Thanks to your explanation, your examples, your view of the body type system itself, I began to understand better! When I learned about essences, I connected a lot of things! However, I would like to better understand this issue even better, even more deeply. I beg you ♥️
Very helpful! I am still not sure if I am soft gamine or soft classic - with a lot of "natural" essence. I am 5' tall but with a more classic or natural face, not the usual gamine face. The hair of the 3 types is quite different and hair is my biggest dilemma. Right now it is long, nearly to my waist, with sideswept bangs. But it is thinner and straighter. I toy with the idea of bobbing my hair, which I usually wear in a side braid or pony, but don't want to look like every other woman in her 70s. ??? I love your videos Ally.
Thank you, very interesting video! I'm a bit struggling figuring out if I'm soft or flamboyant gamin.. sometimes I feel like I'm too straight for the soft, but I feel also not realy flamboyant and may be a bit too skinny to look "curvy enough" if that make sence😂 even if it's not very important because all gamins have a lot in common and I can use und pick out the line recommandations for me, I'm kind of curious what I am.. does somebody else know this situation?😅
Every stylist ever wants to cut my hair, and that turns me into little girl 😩 I know it suits me and I need to embrace my gaminess, but I like longer hair 🥲 thank you for Olsen sisters’ example! P.s. теперь понятно, почему мне постоянно хочется растрепать волосы и слишком зализанные совсем не идут. Спасибо!❤ Было бы здорово ещё увидеть обзоры на моду золотого глобуса и тд. прямь не хватает этого!
I am a bit confused because until the age of 22 I was as light, even a bit lighter than Reese W. and yet when I wear black I always get compliments..Anyways, thanks for this amazing video Aly!!! I have been waiting for it and it came just it time!
Ok, I have a problem. Im 5' tall but I don't look fragile, or petite, or delicate. I have thick legs and a bum. My face features are not delicate either. Diamond face shape. According to the Kibbe method I should be a gamine because of my height. What do I do?
According to kibbe, romantics, teathrical romantics and soft naturals can also be very small. I don't pay attention to the "limits" in height for each of these types, they are just a guideline. Edited to add: "gamine" mostly means that that person has a combination of very sharp features with very round ones. Based on what you are describing maybe you are a soft natural or some kind of romantic (maybe); try to look into that.
I am really muted: thin blond hair becoming greyer with years, grey eyes, pale-olive skin tone. I wonder if I should dye my hair brighter and darker or rather go for platinum blond. Aly, would you be so kind to recommend me some options? ❤ I looove your videos, they've changed my perception of beauty and fashion!
I’m confused how is she a soft gamine with her curves ? I mean she doesn’t have anything exaggerated going on but she has curves . I thought gamine was more rectangle shaped ?
yeah cuz i am confused too i have a pear shaped body like no shoulder at all they are so narrow but i have the hips i guessed that i am soft gamine bcz i am short lol.

Hey Aly, I literally transformed myself with your styling guide. Thanks for putting out such great content

- dark color roots, light color ends
- asymmetrical cuts/unruly waves or curls
- light volume
- hair below the ears
thanks✨️
This came just in time! I’ve been considering haircuts and hair colours to get.
Ugh yes!!! Been waiting for something like this for a while, thank you Aly!!

With your height you could be gamine with classic essence, she has a video on essences if u want to check that out
I eas judt typing this in the search bar. Need for men's style too
Hi Aly. Do you do consultations of any kind?
Thank you, very interesting video!

They want to do the same to me...Resist!!! hehe, our hair is in our heads, not in theirs
Do soft gamines with light brown skin look good with jet black hair?
I look very alien when I blow dry my hair! Now I understand why. Thank you.
I am a bit confused because until the age of 22 I was as light, even a bit lighter than Reese W. and yet when I wear black I always get compliments..Anyways, thanks for this amazing video Aly!!! I have been waiting for it and it came just it time!
What happen if i hace curly hair and im a soft gamine?
Ok, I have a problem. Im 5' tall but I don't look fragile, or petite, or delicate. I have thick legs and a bum. My face features are not delicate either. Diamond face shape.
According to the Kibbe method I should be a gamine because of my height.
What do I do?
Have you considered you might be a romantic? That description doesn't sound very gamine.
According to kibbe, romantics, teathrical romantics and soft naturals can also be very small. I don't pay attention to the "limits" in height for each of these types, they are just a guideline.
Edited to add: "gamine" mostly means that that person has a combination of very sharp features with very round ones. Based on what you are describing maybe you are a soft natural or some kind of romantic (maybe); try to look into that.
I think Reese was playing June Carter with the dark hair
I read somewhere that they are not identical twins, hard to believe.😊
Are Miley Cyrus and Victoria Principal soft gamine?
I am really muted: thin blond hair becoming greyer with years, grey eyes, pale-olive skin tone. I wonder if I should dye my hair brighter and darker or rather go for platinum blond. Aly, would you be so kind to recommend me some options? ❤
I looove your videos, they've changed my perception of beauty and fashion!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
💖👍👌🍀💐💖
I’m confused how is she a soft gamine with her curves ? I mean she doesn’t have anything exaggerated going on but she has curves . I thought gamine was more rectangle shaped ?
A Soft Gamine tends to have double curve, but Flamboyant Gamines are more boxy
Soft gamines are gamines with curve or double curve though? Gamine just means irregular combination of yin and yang.
yeah cuz i am confused too i have a pear shaped body like no shoulder at all they are so narrow but i have the hips i guessed that i am soft gamine bcz i am short lol.
@@Yes_1998 your description sounds more of Romantic type.
I love how deep you’ve gone with this video. Thanks!
