Tweet I have now attempted to have a Ombre hair dye job THREE times at different salons and each time it has gone wrong in some shape or form (too light, too odd, why did you do that?). Ombre – the type that celebs have which look so chic, I have decided, is some kind of masterful art form that should only be performed by the very best colourists because I swear, professional hairdresser or not, some people just have {Read More}
Tweet A while ago I was sent a taster box (treat box? tuck box?) with a selection of Holland & Barrett products to review covering health, beauty and skincare. Holland & Barrett wasn’t somewhere I started shopping in until a few years ago (my nan and mum always did though to buy fish oil!). Now I do spend quite a lot of time in there buying nice food bits and drinks. If you haven’t been in for a while or {Read More}
Tweet UPDATE18/03/2013: The Pro Perfect will be out in April and will be around (not 100% confirmed yet) £170! So this is very much an investment piece! People on my Twitter timeline went nuts yesterday with cries of WOAHHHHH as the Babyliss Pro Perfect Curl tool was revealed. It is indeed rather imaginative and cool, certainly not like anything else I have seen before. Observe: My question would be – does it really work? Does it hurt (can the hair {Read More}
Tweet How I envy thee, who have time to style their hair prettily; alas, time to curl, straighten, fluff up the barnet is no longer mine, so most days I make sure my hair is: clean / not too frightening – and that is enough. But now that Baby H is growing up, it’s time for me to stop frightening the post men (don’t ask me how these two issues are linked, but they kind of are). One thing I {Read More}
Tweet Daniel Galvin is offering half price ‘Romantic Waves’ for the 14th of February – yes, baby making night – and you can upgrade to include a head massage and Daniel Galvin detox for £26. The detox makes the hair look shinier and more vibrant. How gorgeous are these waves? If anyone is having a hot date and is going for this kind of look, then lucky you! It’ll be lovely. As new parents we will be spending Valentine’s as {Read More}
Tweet Before my life revolved around being a Mama, I actually had time to do things like, style my hair. These days, time for that kind of things is at the minimum. So, if I do decide to pretty up once in a while, it has to be with a very quick and easy to use tool. I have tried the Cloud Nine straighteners before, which are truly excellent, but never the curlers! Here I have The Wand: Alongside {Read More}
Tweet I had been forewarned by my mother and aunts that after giving birth it would be highly likely that I would lose what seems like, a lot of hair. I didn’t really pay much attention, as those first months pass like a haze, and I seemed to do fine in the hair department. Then exactly 3 months post partum, the hair loss began. For me it was handfuls of hair falling out when I had a shower, when I {Read More}
