Crimping and lengthy locks are in. Hot on the Summer 2009 catwalks were goddesses with crimped tresses and big bouffants!
Now I have had my fair share of hair disasters over the years all in the name of fashion, my first being a home perm from a friends mum at 13, at the time we were all trying to recreate the look of April in Dallas, but regrettably the result was more poodles on parade!
Not being put of by my first dab at hair fashion I promptly followed Posh and cut the lot off when she had her original Spice Girls crop, happy with the results of this I followed Victoria to the bleach. With naturally black hair you might think this was not an easy task and you would be right, I did manage to get it looking natural once for about six weeks during the three year stretch, but with ever growing roots and a monthly highlights bill more suited to Victoria Beckham, I eventually gave up this expensive hobby and went back to black.
These days I keep my hair its natural colour and interestingly I get asked more than ever what colour I have on it. I always want long hair but as its fine it gets straggly once it’s past my shoulders and I get fed up and cut it short again. Hence I am stuck in a vicious circle of growing it, then cutting it to promptly start growing it again. There is definitely something to be said for finding a style that suits you and sticking to it, but then again we could do that with everything and wear the same clothes and eat the same food and then what a bore life would be. It is for this reason that this Autumn I will be adding to my locks with the ever fashionable Racoon Hair Extensions and once again being a dedicated follower of fashion and crimping and curling with the best of them.
I’m not sure if I will invest in a crimper (I think this may be a step too far for a 34 year old mother of 3) but maybe I will revert to the old school way of platting the hair for occasional home made waves. Or failing that the ghd straighteners can be used to create crimps, so maybe ill get one of the girls in the salon onto it, if there is a night out on the cards.
