gorgeous hair with no hassle

Hi my lovlies
A while back I watched a video on instagram of a lady using a magic little gadget on her hair,it was like a guide she used to french braid her own hair. I thought this was a fantastic product and decided to try it out for myself because there is times I see demos of products on t.v and think ohhhh that looks so easy then i receive it and I might aswell blindfold myself and tie my hands behind my back, like come on its just ridiculous.
 It almost looked like a little plastic wriggly worm, (great description) so I Googled and found out its called a Shang Du and it was on Amazon for 89p with free postage and packaging, this is buttons like so what had I got to loose .

It was delivered a few days ago, it was really fast postage considering it came from china. I couldn't wait to test it out for myself but I wasn't pro enough to trial it on my own hair just yet as I thought it would be sooo awkward. So instead I used my little 8 year old daughter Amelia as her hair is super long and really thin, my way of thinking was I needed to try challenge the gadget in some ways to try and find its faults , and what better way than thin hair. Well wasn't I wrong!! Oh my god this was soooo easy even my daughter could have done her own hair!! Each little loop holds the hair perfectly in place without any hassle what so ever and her hair looked like it took me hours, I was sooooo pleased with myself I was showing everyone. (Such a show off) .below is a before and after picture of Amelias hair.

The Shang Du did slip a little through out the day but I think this was down to the fact her hair was freshly washed this morning. I would suggest maybe 2nd or 3rd day hair. It would be an amazing little extra to slip in your luggage to take on holiday for them lazy sunny days by the beach sipping on cocktail. I would highly recommend this little product to everyone Its just FAB!!!
I hope you all have a fantastic day but for now girlies its love , hugs and kisses from littlepainted me xxxooo.

fab beach hair

Today i re-created a look i did yesterday on my hair using Parlour by Jeff Chastain, this product is a texturisin sea salt spray, i received this with julys birchbox. Firstly can i add that this smells amazing! I almost want to say that it has a scent almost like outdoors,flowers and freshly cut grass, its such an odd way to describe the smell of a product but if you already have this or tried it before then you will know exactly what I mean.
I first used this product yesterday, I was running super late for work and I did not have time to dry my hair after my shower, so instead I spritzed the product all over my damp hair, left it for a little minute then scrunched it to created a wavy look.I finished it off by plaiting the two front sections of my hair and pinning them back from my face,I set this in place with a little spray of Fudge's raspberry and vanilla hairspray which i purchased in my local suoermarket for £4.49. Can I tell you I got complements alllll day on my "beach look" hair, not quite sure that this was the look I was aiming for but hey if people love it then I'll have me some of that. Hehe.
This can be a Little bit pricey at £17 for a full size bottle but I believe it is worth every single penny. It would be perfect for while on holiday and you don't want to be spending ages on your hair, quick spray and a tousle of the locks and your good to.go. this is a cruelty free product and can also be used on coloured hair, so with me having multicoloured bleached and darkened hair then its a perfect product for me and I know that it is definately my new "go to" hair product for perfect lazy Sunday hair.
Hope you all have f

ab Sunday but for now its Love, hugs and kisses from LittlePainted Me xxxooo
