I dyed a streak of my hair red! for the first time ever in my life. I’m 57. it’s never too late to do anything. Well, never do hurtful things. But, anything that doesn’t hurt anyone at all. Go for it.

It's sooo true though!!! But in Tokyu Hands in Hiroshima I was able to find a bathroom so maybe there is one there aswell 😉

I love the pink hair. And, the new glasses. And you wore that baby blue shirt on purpose! You are becoming your art!

Mary Kay Haywood Isn’t it wonderful!!!

The hair stickers!! I think that's what I'l do from now on. No more whiteout, just draw a mess of hair and a face ala Marge Simpson.

I dyed my hair pink in my 30’s too 😂 It was the quiet nerdy girl rebellion that I didn’t do in my teens. Such cute supplies and fantastic hair. I can’t wait to see some of the graphic novel! Have a great week.

Sometimes when I feel like I would like to go shopping, it's not about buying things to own them but more about beeing curious "what ist out there" and about enjoying seeing cute stuff. :D So hauls rather help me not to buy stuff, because the "visual suprise side" of shopping is satisfied xD If this makes any sense.

That's cool!!! 🥰

I don’t feel bad watching the hauls because I live vicariously through others because I don’t need to always shop to get the thrill of looking at new stuff. No, seriously, I love hauls because I get a window into someone else’s life. Unless, of course, the person is giving you a selling pitch then I am less interested.

I love your hair! Beautiful. I love hauls, I never feel bad seeing a haul. If anything they save money because I am able to live vicariously through watching other people buy stuff I can't afford. Also it helps me make better choices in what I may actually buy in the future.

You are such a likeable person. Thanks for putting yourself out there. And buying a children's book in the language you're learning is such a good idea. I've been trying to learn Italian in my 30s by myself without any lessons and it's really hard.

Fran, tengo quince años, te admiro mucho 🌸 y me alegra que hayas podido vivir una aventura como esa y llevarnos contigo, también estoy feliz de que hayas disfrutado tu viaje, espero que puedas realizar muchos más, saludos y abrazos!!! 🥰🥰🥰

I soooo relate to the excitement behind zines, and that feeling of needing to treasure and protect their existence 🥰

Yeeeesss children's books, shows, movies, etc are a great way to learn a language! There is no shame in it whatsoever. Literally get it (by it I mean comprehending yet another language and expanding your education)

I’m 35 but still love pink hair ! Sadly I’m not allowed to color my hair during chronic illness 😪 You look amazing with your pink hair ! You are such an inspiration of buying less stuff and using what you have 👊🏻 Japan hauls are always good, they have the best stuff in stores 😍

yes mitsubishi pencils are the best! I was a mars lumograph person for the longest time but nothing compares to the mitsubishi!

Hey Fran! Please try smooth Bristol Paper for the makers! It doesn‘t wear the tip out and absorb too much ink :) Maybe the paper in your sketchbook is too soft and thin for these markers. Love the pink hair!! Gorgeous!! 😍

Fran!! I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned this in the comments, but the extra special thing about your new しりとりbook (about all the foods) is that しりとりis actually a game! The way you play the game is if you say a word, then another person has to use the last letter from the word and say a word that starts with that letter! So I think your food book is even more amazing! There is only 1 way to lose the しりとり game. That is if you say a word that ends in ’ん’。 So for example, if one person says りんご, the next person can say, ごま、then another person can continue the game and find a word that starts with ま etc. etc. Cool find!

I just found you and I wish I had found you sooner. I am 32 and now want to dye my hair pink. Love your work, and just grateful you are still working after you loss. Hugs!

“I am crazy so this is fine” ..... I felt that

It’s never too late to do anything. It’s your life and you should live it the way you want it. 🌻 I’m glad you dyed your hair pink. You look like your work in this video specially with that top. Haha Life imitates art. 💕

So happy you decided to share your colorful life with us ! I’m having good feelings & energy after a long, difficult time ✨😃🐣🗽✨Mucho gracias’ !

Thanks so much for sharing this haul Fran! I dyed my hair blue when I first moved to being freelancer myself and I love it. The pink really suits you 💖

I'm a BIG FAN and your English is just fine! believe it or not Holbein is from Japan. Keep up the beautiful art and your T-shirt business is great, I wish I could send you some of my used shirts so that you could print on them. I am a 2X so I'm glad to see more of those are coming to the shop...

Just like your illustrations you have an unique taste Fran! I got excited and didn't stop smiling every time you showed something new. Everything is amazing!

Awe I love your hair so much. I had dyed my hair pink and I loved them..still you can see some pink here and there in my hair.. I love all your stationary haul so much..so cute. Sending you love cucki x

I like watching your haul videos, it's fun to see new and different supplies and learn why you like them! Keep it up, I love your happy face!

I don't know why but I keep watching this video over and over again. It must be something about your soothing voice and how you just talk to us like we are sitting in the room with you. You videos help me get through the day!

You’re such a joy! Love you jumping from English to Spanish & tossing little hits of Japanese. Good travel tip “empty bladder!” Hiliarous! Love your hair!! Cutie you!! 💕😉

Stationery hauls make me happy. Coz seeing someone get so giddy about little knick nacks or art makes me smile. I also like seeing what other people get in different parts of the world art is so diverse its a way to dip into what else is out there :)

Dying! So much cute stuff Fran. Love the mini books and pencils and all the things. I want to go to Japan right now. I've just discovered recently illustration and I'm obsessed. I am enjoying bingeing your channel. So much gold here. Love your content. Love your honesty and joy and truth. Lots of love from Australia. Rachelle xo

The glue reminds me of my childhood for sure. I use to used in a tub form, only the head part of the doll, if I'm not mistaken it came with the small scoopy thingy (small plastic spoon) to scoop the glue. I just noticed from your vlog that it came from Japan. I remembered I used it when I was in kindergarden to some time in my early year of elementary for arts and crafts at my school way waaay back in the 80s. Man, what a great memory. Thanks Fran, for sharing all those lovely stationary hauls. Looove the pink hair giiirl.

Fran! I absolutely love the pink hair! You look amazing! 30, 40 , 50 you can do adult stuff and have any color hair you want , don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. So glad you finally did something you really wanted, good for you!!! Sending love from Barcelona ❤️✨

This was deeeelightful, what a lovely treat!

I absolutely love your hair 💕 , love your enthusiasm for art and art supplies

I love watching hauls, it's nice to see what's out there.

What a fabulous trip and stationery haul. Looking forward to drawing with you.

Fran eres tan inspiradora! He seguido tu canal e ilustraciones desde hace unos tres años y siempre me pones una sonrisa en el rostro, tu vibra se siente suave y súper alegre ❤️ saludos desde México!

Hair... looks... EPIC!!!!!! Absolutely love it!!

TE AMO FRAN!!!!!!

fran you are so beautiful! seeing you with pink hair makes me want to dye mine so bad! 😍 i love seeing art hauls since it exposes me to new artists and new art materials! 💖

you look absolutely STUNNING, the all pink is such a good look on you!!

I need to go back to Tokyo by myself and just explore all these shops. I only went to Loft and I need more. Thanks for sharing, I love everything.

I am completely in love with art haul videos from people with whom I feel connected because it becomes kinda personal. And it is perceived not like - go ang get it, but rather then - look what I love:)

OMG! I love Barbapapa too!!!!

Fraaaaaaan you’re the funniest. Could’ve watched this for hours! xxx

Wonderful hair and supplies, Fran! The zines were particularly fantastic. You've been inspiring me for yearssssssss, (pronounced YAAAWRSSSS!!)

It's good. Your hair is really good! Happy Valentine's Day💗

Cuando vi lo de tu cabello están en una etapa emocional y comencé a llorar, te vez tan feliz. Te admiro muchísimo, me has inspirado y has inspirado a muchos, eres la mejor!!!!!

OH MY GOOOOOOSHH I saw you flip through yoriyuki's art book in one of your previous videos and I'm SO GLAD YOU PURCHASED IT!! Their work is so incredibly whimsical and awakens an inner child. I hope to have my hands on their book one day too!!!!

The kilig is real with pink hair! Sailormoon Fran! And omg the turbulence anxiety, lol, I started feeling that way about plane rides two years ago (a big reality check on mortality!). Thanks for sharing your haul. Missing Japan!

watching your videos always make me feel better when I have bad and tired days, and it makes me want to draw again you're amazing, thank you so much for doing this and for your wonderful work

Fraann

omg i love love yoriyuki's work sososoo much!! adding their art book to my wishlist

Your hair looks amazong! It suites you super good!

Great video as always fran 😍😍

I love hauls but especially ones like this where you find truly unique pieces because it inspires me too 🥰 also...the kid hanging from the tree in that verb book 😳🙈

Love it! I had my head shaved to raise money for cancer😍 when it grew back I coloured it pink lol and I'm 54 🌸

Perfect timing. Love u Fran 💕

Your hair is amazing! So happy for you 💕

looking great Fran!!! pink hair suits you so well, you're glowing! 😍 and your hauls are fun to watch. for me, it's a way to get to know the person by what they choose to purchase especially when they're not into consumerism.

oh and i dyed my hair pink too. it was my goal before i get to 30 😅 i did it when i was 28/29? it was a pain to maintain though 😄 but i'm happy i did it!

I got the same pencil extender when I went to sekaido!! Tokyu hands and sekaido are AMAZING and I 100% agree with your advice to go on an empty bladder. PS I love your sweater!!!! Also I totally understood what you meant with the small holbein sketchbook XD when you're on the search for the perfect paper debes de tener un ejemplo!!

The hair correction stickers are brilliant 😄

Buen Haul Fran! Me encanta, gracias y que siga el buen trabajo muchacha

As always, I love you Fran! :D

Hi Fran, 1st, the pink hair with the red-purple/ish eyeglasses, lovely 😏~ 2nd, 20:45 literally my face when you show us an up-close, love you for that btw💙 3rd, How cool it would be if someone throws a party in a stationary shop and you would be invited to? 4th, Thank You So Much for sharing your experiences from Japan. And last but not least, Thank you for being Fran! 💌 Much love from Romania~

About the red cap of the glue - the original packaging of the glue is only the "head" of that character and the red cap is the lid. to use the glue you open the cap stick your fingers into the container to scope out the thick glue and spread it on the paper with your fingers. It's mostly use by kid for like art craft and stuff. I use it when i was in kindergarten and i still remember the scent of this glue 😭 Now they put the red cap on the new packaging&glue formula to pay homage to the old packaging adding a touch of nostalgia.

Love your hair! & you did it!

Oh my goodness, I love Nakano Broadway! My husband and I always make a plan to go there every time we visit Japan. I love the resale shops and feel like it’s a less naughty Akihabara.

Your hair is so cute omg fraaaaaannnn💗💗💗💗

Hi Fran I am your fan, you helped me to fallow my dream and try it too on KZread, you inspire me a lot, Im also learning Japanese so happy you are doing in it as well!!!

This video is the bessssttt. I love hearing how inspired you were by your trip!!

omg i am so afraid to cut my hair, i am definitely doing it nowww 💕 thank you for the inspiration ❤️ + your hauls actually help me decide and cut down on the things i am obsessed to buy

Your hair turned out crazy cool!!

Love your new hair Fran!

Fran, I respect that you are not a person who is into consumerism. Although you may think that you purchased a lot, I am amazed at the restraint you show in your haul. Kudos to you, like your vid and all the items you bought.

Fran, muero por los sketchbooks ❤️❤️❤️

Your hair with the new glasses and blue jumper looks MWAH. Very gorgeous! Also 8:14 made me crack up, you jokester ❤️.

The period book is highly recommended. It’s witty and warm to girls.

Holbein makes great watercolors too & they may be the only ones to make a genuine Indigo. I like their painting knives too. I am slowly gravitating to more & more of their products.

This was such a great video! I feel all the same things about stationary and books so I get you Fran. I've moved to Spain for 6 months and trying to learn Spanish now. I think I might try finding some childrens books in Spanish too!

I like hauls because I like seeing the stuff people I like love and also I like discovering that I like things I didn't know I liked before. I don't really feel sad about not owning things, if they're not gonna be super useful to me or if I don't like them a lot.

OMG Your hair is exquisite!

Fran 💕🍬🦄🌸💕 with all the cute stuff!

I look beautiful pink hair is nice to see how one is encouraged by more than a long time passed greetings from Argentina 💗😍😊

Your hair looks so nice! Japan is the ultimate stationery heaven. One day, I’ll go there and spend hours and hours browsing!

Loving the hair!!

i love love love the hair!!!

That haul was amazing!

Hair goals. Stationery goals. Oh to live in a stationery department store. I smell everything too 😁

If the pilot markers are like te POSCA ones the issue is they are water based so you shouldn't charge the paper too much, it gets wet and breaks! I love your pink hair in contrast with the blue sweater btw ♥

your pink hair looks ADORABLE! mine past pink last year and if it weren’t for the upkeep, it’d still be that way. it makes outfits so much more fun. BEWARE though, men in Brooklyn love making unsolicited comments about it lol

nunca he ido a Japón, pero estuve buscando planners y llegué al Hobonichi, amor a primera vista: simple, delgado, liviano. Pero los que muestras en el video se ven hermosos (y livianos y simples)! Tu próximo planner será de este estilo :O ! Excited!!

Yo también me río bastante fuerte con tus vídeos. Me encanta cómo te expresas! ♥

Loving your hair. I recently dyed mine black from bright blue because my hair was fried and needed a break, but yours is so healthy what

Your hair looks so cute!!!!💗💗💗

Oh my good, your hair is sooo good

Fran, if you like the little Holbein sketchbook, at Blick in NY they sell Holbein sketchbooks (in the basement floor). They are spiral wire-bound, mostly A4, but the paper is divine!

Yay!!!! She's back 💛💛💛💛
