Aurora hair band...for Charlies Angels hair while you sleep
Hey Guys, so i was lucky enough to receive one of these little beauties in the post a little while back.
Since then I have tried this numerous times and I must say I love the results even on my mid lenght hair.
So how does it work..after you have washed and towel dried your hair you simply roll your hair into this little beauty.
Then,you go to bed....that's it...no curling tongs,no using GHD's to curl your hair,no dead arm while you try to curl your hair. I also like that you are not using heat to achieve the waves so you are not damaging your hair. It is so simple to do and the results are just superb.
The band is very comfortable to sleep in ,no more waking up with a crick in your neck from conventional rollers. My hubby did give me a funny look but he has seen my go to bed with stranger things on!!!
To use just part in your desired parting. Place The Aurora Band on your head. Divide hair down the back centre of crown as if to make pigtails. Starting from the front, take your first section, about 2 inches for longer hair, make bigger sections.
ALWAYS REMEMBER to add the remainder of each section into the next until you reach the nape of the neck. Repeat on the opposite side, again starting at the front.
Pull the Band back to hairline when finished wrapping.
TOP TIP Try to leave a space at the back of the band where the 2 sides meet. This ensures easy unlooping in the morning.
To remove the band start unravelling from the nape of the neck by turning the band inside out and inserting your finger under the loop, starting from the last section wrapped. Work to the front and repeat process on the opposite side.
DO NOT pull hair from Velcro side when unlooping.
My hair was a little on the wild side initially but by the time i had my make up applied and was ready to go out the door it had relaxed and look great.
It is very important to remove the band as directed ,i have seem some negative reviews regarding knotty hair and hair being stuck to the Velcro.
I removed it as instructed each time and I haven't had an issue,but i can see how you would if you don't follow instructions. Take a few minutes to remove the band properly and you will have great results.
I have also worn this band during the day after showering in the morning (obviously a day I'm staying at at home lol) and have again gotten great results .
I will be saving a fortune on curly blowdry's
This product is available online from aurorahairproducts click here and in selected pharmacies

Eyebrow Threading at The Body Shop Ireland
Hey Guys,
So a few weeks ago I posted that I was invited into the Body Shop in Cork to have my eyebrows threaded and tinted if I wanted. My eyebrows are naturally dark but bushy so I declined the tint but was excited to try out the threading.
Eyebrows are the main focus right now and you need to have them 'on point'. I normally pluck (when i have time ) and then every 6 months or so get them waxed to give the definition that i maintain by plucking. I had heard of Threading but never got around to trying it out ...until now.Threading has many advantages over waxing,its fast.suitable for all skin types even sensitive,its relatively painless ( i found it quite relaxing) and it does not cause ingrown hairs !!!.
Threading has been done for centuries in countries like India,Egypt but its relatively new practise here in Ireland.It is done using a cotton thread which is twisted and pulled along the hairs grabbing the unwanted ones in a twisted loop if you will. It removes the hair follicle and results can last longer than waxing (depending on your own hair growth)
Now my eyebrows grow like weeds..seriously its ridiculous how fast those buggers grow so i deliberately held off on this review so i could tell you guys how long it lasted.
I was threaded on the 9th June and i did not see any pesky hairs poking out until the 27 June and even then it was just a few. Its now the 1st July and ok they need to be done but nothing like how bad they would normally be after this lenght of time (caterpillars spring to mind!!!)
I was threaded by Uma who was so lovely and professional. There is a separate area of the shop designated for the threading which is nice and private .The first thing Uma did was to sanitise her hand and mine..I loved this because I am a clean freak..( I did used to work in a sterile environment so I've been conditioned lol) . We then discussed the look i was after and Uma set to work. Uma kept showing me in a mirror to check i was happy which I was..very happy indeed. It was all over very fast, and some cooling aloe vera was applied not that i need it to be honest there was no pain or stinging and wow the result was fantastic. A huge plus for me is that there was no redness, You know how after waxing you have 2 red blotchy strips across your face not with threading.
The threading bar at offers threading for a variety of areas and i will definitely be going back . On that note they also offer a loyalty card so if you are in there be sure and pick one up . Also while you just walk in and get threaded you can also book online here. Webite is so easy to use and you even get a reminder text the day before which i like beause we are all busy and appointments can be forgotton
I would highly recommend the thebodyshop for threading and i will be booking my next appoinment this week
Let me know if youve been threaded and how you found it xx
