Review: Dafni Hair Straightening Brush

Dafni Hair Straightening Brush - is it worth the hype?

I really love the sleek smooth feeling of my hair when it’s straightened, but it always takes me so long to do that I don’t do it very often. Last month, the team at Farmers asked if I wanted to try out the Dafni Hair Straightening Brush – I’d heard so much about it that of course I said yes! View Post

How to get fabulously fierce Fashion Week hair

I didn’t get a chance to head down to Wellington Fashion Week this year, because I’m super busy with my final year of uni (which means no fun trips away for me, boo!).  However, I have been avidly watching the instagram/twitter/facebook feeds to see all the goings on.

One show I wished I could have been at was the AW’13 Group Collections Showcase, which featured Trelise Cooper, Moochi, twoWORLDs, STORM, Mondegreen, Sabatini at Goodness, and Taylor. What a wonderful collection of designers!

 

Something that caught my eye was the hair styling – I love the edgy look pictured above!

 

Thanks to Sebastian Professional Urban Artist, Amy Alexander for sharing this step-by-step guide on how to re-create this great runway hair look. View Post

How to get tousled beach hair (without going to the beach)

I love the way my hair looks after a day at the beach, all tousled and wavy and gorgeous, but I don’t like the way it feels.  To get tousled beach babe hair without stepping foot in the surf, follow these easy steps to surfer chic.

1. Work a curl enhancing product like PPS Beach Styler through dry hair to ensure that your style will hold.

2. Part your hair down the centre, and braid into two plaits (one on either side of your head) and secure with a small hair tie.

3. Twist one braid away from your face and twist a straightening iron on to the hair in the same direction your braid is twisted. Repeat this all the way down the braid, but make sure you don’t do this over the hair tie or you will get a weird crease at the bottom of your hair. Do this on both braids, and then repeat.

4. Once your hair has cooled, remove the hair ties and finger comb the braid out. You should now have gorgeous tousled hair!  You can either leave it down or style it up.
