Haircare is the category that's most likely to let me down, beauty-wise. It tends to give me heated tools that I can't manage to operate, "moisturising" shampoos that leave my hair feeling like wire, styling foams and mists and mousses that need to be blow-dried in by...
Well, here's something I was expecting to hate but ended up loving: the Babyliss Cordless Hot Brush. I realised, through a bit of self-therapising (basically just me staring at the window for a while, pondering stuff) that the reason I took instant dislike to the...
This is how I style my mid length hair now that it's slightly shorter than usual - it sits just below the shoulder. Obviously I use the word style in its very loosest sense because I'm about as wieldy with heated appliances as an elephant would be with a crochet hook,...
Here are my 2019 favourites for skincare and haircare, including the latest shampoo discovery that actually changes the entire feel of my hair and the skincare that'll make a proper difference to your beauty routine. I was going to do a bodycare version of this 2019...
I was going to do a written post on my postpartum hair loss, but actually you can see the sparse patches better on video, so a video it is. I'm thoughtful that way. And look I know that my hair loss isn't drastic - not by any means - but so many people have expressed...
A nice little hair video to finish off the week. I did a roundup of my most-used hair products - shampoos, hair masques, conditioners and so on - because people are always asking and I don't often delve into the world of hair on my Youtube channel. Perhaps because I...
Now and then I like to do one of these "current makeup" videos just to demonstrate some of the products that I've been using the most. If a product has been used daily for weeks on end then (for me, at least) it must be pretty good and it's worth having a bit of a...
I'm rather pleased with my latest video - I've mastered the art of the loose curl using my Babyliss Pro Curl! With the accompanying glowy, sunkissed skin I'll admit that it's not very Christmassy, but I am in Dubai and it's about twenty seven degrees here so it just...
I decided on a whim (saw some pictures of Gisele on the tube, thought "I want that hair") to take my hair darker. Being an impatient soul, I wanted it darker - dark! as dark as blonde can be! - right away. But thank goodness for John (Spanton - regular readers will...
Most of you will have seen the new haircut already - about three or four videos have come out post-cut, it's just this one had to wait until I was back on the "big computer" for me to edit it properly. So, it's all a bit out of chronological order, but here's the...
This is the second video in a series of three that follow my hair "journey" as I decide what I want to do with it. Those following on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram will already know what I decided to do with it, but lots of you won't have seen my new do. Anyway, this...
I'm considering (possibly unwisely) having my hair cut. I always want to get my haircut once I've grown it long, it's a vicious cycle that I fear I'll never really escape. I get easily bored with my hair and I'm also terrible at making the effort to style it, so when...
