I have had them constantly in and out for 18 months now and I have to say my hair is still in the same condition it was the day I got them put in. But I decided to take them out, go a little lighter with my colour and let my hair thicken up a bit.
I've been playing around with hair bands, like this one from Dunnes |
So since I've had them out I'm trying all different types of styles. I have curled my hair, but mousse in, wax in, pinned it up and tried different hair bands. So I thought I would share some of them with you!
The first thing I tried was using a hair band. I got a gorgeous bow hair band from Dunnes Stores for only €5 and I've worn it loads.
It's a nice thick one and with the bow and the mix of colours you can really wear it with anything, then it becomes a fashion accessory as well as a hair one!
I also started messing around with clips and slides and I put my hair up. I used to never wear my hair up, but now that it's thin and light it's so easy to just throw it up.
I went to the launch party of Celebrity Salon last night and I wore my hair up, I loved the style and will definitely wear my hair up more often now!
To get my hair this way I twirled pieces of my hair around and then put a hair pin at the back, I did about 6 twirls and then I threw the rest up with pins.
I've been playing around with upstyles too! |
Then I made sure my side fringe was push up at the front, I then pinned that and put hair spray all over.
I left two pieces of hair at the sides to keep the volume around my face. For someone who normally hates having her hair up I really felt comfortable with it.
Over the next few weeks I will be playing around and coming up with more styles.
Until next time,
