Preparations for the Cannes Red Carpet…

If you follow my Instagram and Twitter feeds, you'll already know that last week I got to do something quite amazing and magical. After thirteen years in "the business" I'm not that easily impressed by fashion or beauty stuff (I've worn a lot of fine dresses and had...

The Four Month Hair Colour

The Four Month Hair Colour

It has suddenly occurred to me that I haven't had my hair colour done in nearly four months. Four months! I have hardly any noticeable regrowth and the colour on the lengths of my hair still looks as nice and rich as it did on the day it was tinted. (Actually, I lie:...

Does Hair Styling Get Easier Than This? (Clue: No)

Does Hair Styling Get Easier Than This? (Clue: No)

We need to talk about Mark Hill's Wicked Waver. Because although it looks a little...unconventional...it's actually one of the easiest hair tools I've ever used. No moving parts to tangle up your tresses, no complicated sectioning rituals; just easy, relaxed waves...

The Transitional Blonde / Patience is a Virtue.

The Transitional Blonde / Patience is a Virtue.

I am officially in Hair Transit. I have left the realms of Near-Brunette-dom and am now en route to my true hair home, the Kingdom of Blonde. I don't know what possessed me to go quite so dark in the first place - I always go a little darker in the winter, but this...

Retro Hair Waves and Natural, Glowing Makeup…

Retro Hair Waves and Natural, Glowing Makeup…

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...

Where do all the Hairbands Go?

Where do all the Hairbands Go?

Where do all my hairbands go? I have no idea! They're like pens - I must buy about 40 Bic Medium Biros every year and can I ever find one? No. I end up writing shopping lists with lipliners and signing cheques with my own blood. (Last bit was a joke, obviously. Though...

Naughty: Another Purchase-Based-on-Scent

Naughty: Another Purchase-Based-on-Scent

Ah. Another product purchase motivated entirely by scent. The scent in Pureology's Essential Repair Shampoo is supposed to be "Jasmine, Ylang Ylang and Rosewood" but to me it smells almost exactly like fig. I know we're not supposed to choose our shampoo (or any...

New Hair Colour: Blondes, Bleach and Balayage

New Hair Colour: Blondes, Bleach and Balayage

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...

Imedeen Hair and Nails Review

Imedeen Hair and Nails Review

I don't know whether to thank Imedeen or cry. For the first four weeks that I took their Hair & Nails supplement absolutely nothing happened at all, but since then I have slowly been turning into Wolverine. Hairs have been sprouting from places previously hairless...

Review: Philip Kingsley No Scent No Colour Conditioner

Review: Philip Kingsley No Scent No Colour Conditioner

I love this conditioner! I cannot believe that I have only this year discovered it - I think that it is definitely right up there with my most favourite haircare products ever! It's very light, so perfect for finer hair like mine, but also very very conditioning, so...
