Brianna 3/4 wig in Ginger Brown by Hot Hair

Brianna is a 3/4 wig with long gentle yet glamorous waves through the ends. This ultra-long style is perfect for a glamour-puss look that will ensure you turn heads - I received my hair piece in a lovely black box with tissue paper - it felt so luxurious! The hair itself, to me looked and felt real.. It's not super shiny like some synthetic pieces, once out the box it took me about 3-5 minutes to figure out how to best attach to my head.. I split hair from ear to ear the hair above I flip forward the hair below I put in a low ponytail.. I attach the hair piece over my low ponytail and secured, I then put my remaining hair back down and styled with a kirby grips to blend the two together and make it look natural, within minutes I have gorgeously long locks!.. The ¾ wigs easily slide in at around 10cm’s behind your hairline to create instant length and volume. You then simply disguise the join with your own hair or a pretty ribbon or hairband to create the easiest, most glamorous way to fabulous hair ever.

This is how it securely attaches to your hair with two tooth combs and two clips, it feels very secure once attched properly.

The hair itself was colour matched to me after sending pictures of myself via email, I was matched to the shade 'Ginger Brown' and I was very impressed when it turned out to be a perfect match.

Made of a high quality synthetic fibre made to look and feel like real hair this wig comes with a slightly waved style and as it is synthetic,but you are unable to use any heat styling on it. I personally think it felt just like real hair and clipped in, my husband couldn't tell the difference between my hair and the wig, which was great!.. I've worn it on a few nights out & never had any strange 'she's wearing a wig looks!' Just compliments. One of my friends "couldn't believe how long my hair had gotten, as You always have it tied back"...  The 3/4 styles are created with life-like synthetic hair, eliminating the need for styling. They won’t droop or flatten in humid or wet weather, and due to their innovative comb and clip system, won’t budge even during the most energetic dancing on a night out.

I love mine and will definitely be wearing my hair down more often.. With this added beauty!

RRP is £69.99 but it's currently on offer for £49.99!

Braun FACE

PCOS is the bane of my life! Not only does it make it extra hard to lose the weight it has piled on me.. Or the fact I was told it could make me infertile - but I won that battle though! Ha 1-0 to me!... It has also kindly given me facial hair.... Which of course makes me feel super sexy & confident!.. Yeah exactly said by No women EVER!!.. I have tried waxing- painful, tweezers - time consuming and finally IPL - Expensive, painful.... But did feel like a miracle.. If only for a few months!... but due to my hair being a result of my stupid hormones it always returns with a vengence, so I have been looking for a more manageable solution to make me hair-free and feel happy again! 

When I read about This NEW 2 in 1 mini facial epilator I was super excited as it sounded just what I was looking for not only does it QUICKLY remove the hair it also delivers pore-deep cleansing and high-precision facial epilation, whether you want to go make-up-free or create the perfect canvas. It’s the perfect tool to help you achieve luminous, smoother and brighter skin –all at the flick of a switch. 

When I first used it I'll openly admit I was slightly nervous as I'd heard the horror stories of how painful epilation is... I gritted my teeth and switched it on.. I couldn't believe it... the pain was minimal, but an area that with my trusty tweezers usually took a good 10 minutes was completely smooth in seconds! - Hallelujah I could of cried!! I had completely finished removing hair and the peach fuzz in less than five minutes... I can't praise this little stick of magic enough, for someone like me who has lived with PCOS and the embarrasing facial hair since my late teens it's a total life changer for only £69.99.

Here's a close up, it does look rather scary but honestly it hardly hurts at all, its been over a week now since I first used it and my face is still hair free, I've not had chance to use the brush that is included as I usually use my Clarasonic, but it looks really good and the bristles are lovely and soft so a definite added  bonus for this epilator. Available now to buy.

Charles Worthington Overnight Ultimate Hair Healer.

 This is a Charles Worthington product and it is from the "Secrets Collection". The collection is a tad more expensive than your usual CW products and are all high quality treatments...... definitely worth a try!

My hair has been super dry and frizzy recently especially on the ends, which is from a variety of reasons - PCOS, Weather, Heating, styling etc..When I saw that this is made especially for these problems it seemed like a perfect product to invest in!

It's Recommended in the salon for hair suffering from dryness, frizz or damage, this silky light-weight crème acts as a healing mask during your beauty sleep, leaving no residue on your pillow. Its advanced formula contains nourishing Argan Oil and a Night Shield Complex with penetrating actives that reinforce the hair from root to tip. Scientifically proven to: double hair-strength overnight & reduce hair-breakage by up to 80%.

As I work from home I usually leave it on for 24hrs, I apply on clean dry hair, before bed and in the morning my hair is super soft and conditioned, you can easily run a brush through it, tie back and go to work without anyone noticing. My hair does feel softer, more conditioned and stronger, it also looks smoother and less frizzy.

I really am impressed it costs £14.99 for 200ml, but I've used it 5-6 times and only used a 1/4 of product so if you compare price to amount of applications it isn't too expensive.

Tips for keeping Hair Healthy....

1. NO Fad Diets! - A well-balanced diet is the best way to keep your hair healthy and strong. Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables, nuts, brown rice, beans and pulses,  and you’ll have tresses in top condition in no time. Also drink plenty of water to keep you hydrated.

2. Pay careful attention to how you wash your tresses: rub shampoo into the palms of your hands and distribute evenly, lather and repeat with half as much shampoo. Rinse and apply a matching conditioner mainly to the ends and mid-lengths. -  Reduce the impact of heat styling with a good protector spray or balm. Choose a non-greasy product that won’t weigh your hair down. 

3. Apply a deep conditioning treatment. You can use deep conditioning treatments like olive oil, argan oil, avocado oil or Coconut Oil - Use a leave-in conditioner at least once a week. Leave-in conditioners penetrate deep into your hair cuticles to heal them more completely. Try a spray leave in conditioner/ detangler after you shower. The conditioner will make your hair tangle free and manageable. 

4. Accessorise your healthy, gorgeous hair. Clips or barrettes can compliment beautiful hair but can cause split ends and snags I have been using Popbands as they have no metal they don't damage my hair, they come in all colours to suit everyones taste!

Charles Worthington strength and repair kit

My hair isn't in great shape as you are probably all aware from recent posts! I'm always on the look out for a miracle product! I noticed this & decided to try it as it had 33% off, it should of been £19.99 which i think is quite high for a drugstore brand, but i got it for a little over £13?.

It is supposed to Restore dry, damaged and fragile hair with this salon-inspired hair repair treatment. ,Enriched with our unique Renovoil Complex, it is scientifically proven to strengthen hair and reduce breakage by 93%, giving you stunningly silky hair, all from the comfort of your own home.

It is a 3 step process & you get enough product to apply on 4 separate occasions.

Step 1) Hair repair oil.

All you need to do dispense a couple of pumps into the palm of your hand and work through your hair. I applied it about halfway down my hair and mostly on the tips. It comes in a pump bottle which means there is no mess.

you then put on one of the plastic hair caps (4 provided) to "accelerate the penetration of oils deep into your hair cuticles".  Leave for 5 minutes, i left mind on a little longer as my hair really needs help!

Step 2) strength and Repair Shampoo

Just like a normal shampoo, lather and rinse. This smells lovely.  It leaves your hair feeling very clean too.  By this point, I have to say, I didn't really feel a massive need for the next step, my hair already felt super soft and silky.

Step 3) Intensive Hair repair Masque

This masque is applied to wet hair, and left for 5 minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Again you could leave on longer if your hair needs it.

It did work & my hair felt in better condition, i don't think i would go as far as saying it is a hair 'Miracle' but if you are looking for something to give your hair an extra boost for the party season then this may be for you?

What's your 'Miracle' hair product?

Luster Pink Shampoo & Conditioner

My Hair is rubbish! It is very thin & quite dry/damaged due to having PCOS & over dying, Straightening etc. I am always on the look out for a new 'Miracle' product that will turn it from this into a magnificent mane of thick beautiful hair!

I was on Boots website a couple of weeks ago looking at Argan oil products & an intensive conditioner when i noticed Luster Pink in the side bar, so i curiously clicked  as I'd never heard of the brand before.

It was advertised to REVIVE & PROTECT- Vitamin E repairs weak, damaged hair and protects against damage from styling tools and environmental damage.

SUPERIOR MOISTURE CONTROL

ProVitamin B5 hydrates and strengthens from inside-out locking in vitamin-rich humectants for all day moisture retention.

As they were only £3.05 each & you get 500ml of product, I thought i would order them & give them a whirl! i have now used them both 3 times & really think i can notice a difference, my hair feels in better condition, less fizzy & a little thicker!

They seem to have quite a large range of products so i am going to try a few more especially the hot oils & intensive conditioners.
