Unable to take the plunge and actually chop my hair, I have found a less permanent way to have a spring fling with my ‘do. When you are known for your scruffy ‘bird’s nest’ locks like I am, it is amazing the difference it makes when you scrape your hair off your face into a neat top knot.
Scattered all over the S/S runways from Lanvin to Rodarte, it is a severe look which contrasts beautifully with all that femininity and flowers for Spring.
You can’t swing your long locks at the moment without hitting a whole bevvy of style icons who have taken the chop (most recently Gwyneth Paltrow). Short hair seems to be the official length de jour.
Usually it is pretty safe to ignore hair ‘trends’ due to hair not being, well, disposable. But there is something alluring modern about a sharp and easy cut. Also, ’short’ hair is a pretty vague trend leaving plenty of scope for individual interpretation…
Like us you probably need a miracle potion to sort out all the damage inflicted on your hair from the cold, dry weather, not to mention all of the teasing, blowdrying and colouring you’ve put your hair through to keep your coiffe in style for the party season.
We recently tried the Anti-Frizz Spray Laminator Shine Mist from Citre Shine – which was as simple as spritzing post-styling – and were pleasantly surprised by the results. Hair came out with a nice glossy sheen and it helped to tame the frizz and annoying baby hairs that tend to pop up after drying. The only drawback is that the product doesn’t really mist too evenly, so if you don’t comb it through with your fingers, you could easily miss a few spots.
We liked it as an affordable option to those more expensive gloss treatments you can get at the salon, and it actually leaves your hair smelling quite nice too!
