    The Tangle Teezer

    I've wanted one of these for weeks, finally I got round to getting one from Regis Salon located inside the House of Fraser store on Oxford Street. I paid a tenner for the neon pink one. It's absolutely superb, my normal Denman brush rips through my hair, which concerned me as it is very long...

    'Layering' hair products - advice please xxx

    On my damp hair before blow-drying, I normally apply hair serum (specifically for damp hair, not dry) and also a spray/creme heat protector. I would just like to know - which one I am supposed to be applying first? Or does it not matter?

    Aveda Colours

    I am booking a consultation next week at my local salon, who use/sell nothing but Aveda products. I am going for a permanent colour this time (I had a semi before and it was nice). It'll be interesting to see whether the stylist can get me from my natural black colour to a chocolate shade (and...

    The Price of a Cut & Finish???

    I go to a 'brand name' salon in Bournemouth town centre and pay my experienced stylist (I can't remember his exact title!) £55 for a cut and blow. I could get a cut and blow for cheaper elsewhere, but seeing as this guy is the best stylist I have had in years, I am happy to pay this. I get my...

    Tips for Growing Hair long.

    Another thing which could help are SEA KELP tablets. I get mine cheap from Holland and Barratt. These are not advertised as such, but there are many reports that these will double your rate of monthly hair growth. You have to take one with every meal, but after about three months the effect...

    tanagra

    I'm no expert but... ...I had the three recommended does of Tanagra a couple of years ago when I had horrendously perm-damaged hair. It promised miracles but in all honesty it didn't do a thing to improve my hair. Recently, I discussed this with a hairdresser friend, who works at a different...

    Tips for Growing Hair long.

    I bought F.A.S.T. shampoo and conditioner as well, and I think it has worked on my hair, I have had loads of people comment on how long my hair has gotten in a short length of time, and these are people that see me on a regular basis. Like you, Paulette, I ran out and began to notice the growth...

    Some tips to tame my hair please!

    Hi everyone! Right up until my early 20's I had the straightest, finest, longest, greasiest hair. Now, in my mid 20's my hair is completely different and I do not know how to deal with it! My hair is bra-strap length, thick, and is halfway between straight and wavy. My hair is in very good...

    losing my hair

    Hi Sarah, My best friend had a similar problem - hair falling out at the root. She went to her gp who prescribed her some tablets but they didn't work. Then she discovered that she had a fungal infection of the scalp, which she treated easily by switching to a medicated shampoo. As the other...

    Pink Hair

    Pink Hair

    Well I wouldn't mind some pink hair myself, not all over though, just some highlights. I am considering getting some pink extensions, as an alternative to having my own hair coloured pink. I have red in at the mo, but my stylist said to make my very dark hair a bright pink would involve too much...

    Valentines Hols in Rome - Can anyone suggest any sights/restaurants I should visit

    Hi Geeks, I'm spending a few days in Rome next week. We're flying out on Wednesday morning (Valentine's Day) and I have got pretty much everything organised. The only thing I haven't done is actually decide what we are going to do when we get there! We are staying in Rome city centre, in a...

    Sharing a Fab Recipe!!! (Meatballs)

    Sounds very nice. Will give this a shot next time I have mince to hand. I tried making some burgers last week and they were minging! Quick question, Mandz. Do you use extra lean mince or the fatty one?

    Blow drying Vs straightening irons - your advice please

    Well, I always put some sort of heat defense spray/serum on my hair before I style it, and I assume the stylist does it at the salon. I never actually thought to ask them what they put on there, but I think I'd better ask! The only thing I know for sure is that they put a little serum AFTER...

    Blow drying Vs straightening irons - your advice please

    Yeah I suppose I could get it cut in about three month's time, but just one inch off the ends, and then I could still have nice longish hair for July.
