Recently I blogged about how I wanted my hair to be in a better condition. After years of dying it and using heat, my hair is in a pretty terrible condition. I’m desperate for my hair to grow, and a friend told me my hair has no chance of growing if I continue to abuse it. A few months ago I saw Danielle’s blog post about strawberry curlers and bought myself some off ebay from this seller. I used them once on dry hair over night and decided I hated them and never tried them again.
That was a couple of months ago before I truly abused my hair with heat. Then the other day I decided to give them another go. I applied them to wet hair and waited a couple of hours for my hair to dry. I have naturally curly hair but because of how short it is, when it dries the curls are crazy and a frizzy mess, not nice curly locks like I would like. But after I took these out I was left with beautiful curls, that if I brushed turned into soft waves. Because the strawberries are made from sponge, their soft so are comfortable to sleep in if you want to leave them in overnight. I’ve used them on both dry and wet hair, but I’ve found better results if I leave them in wet hair.
Overall I’m really impressed, especially with how cheap these were. They come in packs of 12 which I found was enough for my hair as it’s only mid length. The instructions weren’t very clear but I found tons of tutorials on YouTube that show you how to apply them. I think these are great if your trying to use less heat on your hair but want to have movement and body in your hair. I’m certainly going to be using these more on my hair to give it a break from heat.
I’ve been dying my hair for as long as I can remember. I think at age 11 I managed to convince my mum to let me put a semi-permanent colour on my hair and since then I haven’t stopped. I went through phases of changing my hair colour dramatically until I went bright red and stayed…
Over time my nail varnish collection has grown and grown, resulting my nail polishes outgrowing their old home. While I’ve been home over the summer its been okay because I store them all in my dolls house which you can see here. But as I’m going back to uni in a few weeks time, I’m in…
If you’ve read my tweets over the last couple of days you will have seen I’ve had my eyes on the Sleek Strom i-Divine eye shadow palette. I’ve been thinking of buying it for a couple of weeks now after seeing it on various blogs. I’ve only recently got into eye shadow (whats wrong with…
I originally planned to put all of my favourite products of 2013 into one big blog post. However when planning and taking photographs I realised there was just far too many products to include so decided to break it down into a mini series. I wanted to start off with hair products as this is…
I don’t know how my poor hair puts up with me. It’s been put through hell with bleaching, dying, and constant heat application. So I decided it was time to treat my hair to some products that would help it out, especially if I ever want it to grow. One product that my friend Simone raves about is the Kérastase…
It took me a while before I bought into the Real Techniques brushes hype, but I started with the Stippling Brush and since then I couldn’t go back to another brand. One of my favourites is the Blush Brush, which I think is one of the larger brushes. It’s shaped like a large tapered egg shape which…
