Rapture Event in Peter Marks.....the new era of hair extentions??

Hey guys,
So last night I attended the launch in Peter Mark of their brand new hair extension range Rapture.
Now this is Peter mark first time entering the extension market.
As a brand they spent a lot of time looking for the right extension range to work with their ethos. They had to be ethically sourced, kind to the hair and also affordable for clients.
They also had to look natural which these do.
Rapture extensions are applied incredibly quickly,it took only about 50 mins for a whole head of 16 inch extensions to be applied and styled.

They come in every colour under the sun,so a colour match is guaranteed,or you can mix it up and go for a balayage effect or add highlight and low lights.The choice really is up to you.
It is also worth noting that once you purchase your extensions and have the applied,they belong to you. If you want to have them removed you can and you can keep them and reuse them at a later date. You just need to pay to have the reapplied each time. I like this idea as if you love to chop and change your look you don't need to purchase more hair each time.
Peter Mark put on a great night for the launch,they even put out the Red carpet,and greeted us with champagne and great nibbles. The wine was also flowing all night. Take a look at some photos from the event.

If you are considering getting extensions especially coming up to Christmas why not pop into Peter Mark and have a chat with the team about Rapture. They will be only too happy to advice you.
Till next time,
Love,

Disguise thinning hair with Viviscal Fibres!!!

Hey guys , so today I have something a little bit different.

Before Christmas i was very kindly sent a box of viviscal hair fibres to try out for you. I hadn't heard of them before,never knew there was anything like it even on the market. What they are is basically fibres that you sprinkle on your hair to instantly give the appearance of fuller hair. Now obviously I'm not in danger of going bald just yet,but what I do have is a very white scalp and brown  hair. This can sometimes ruin the look of a hairdo. I found these fibres brilliant for disguising that obvious white line.

I also asked a friend of mine with dark hair to try it out (we were going out on out Christmas night...without the kids!!!!!!) She was absolutely blown away by them. She recently  had her third child and a lot of her hair had fallen out. She won't mind me saying this but she had a bit of a bald patch on one side that she was very aware of . When I sprinkled the fibres on and rubbed them into her hair it was amazing,the bald was completely disguised. She was worried if it would last the night because of course it was raining (can't remember which fecking storm it was that night) but her hair stayed perfect.

We were both very impressed by this tub of "dust " as my hubby called it. Men huh!!!! How long before he could especially looking for them once he spots a bit of head peaking through his hair. These fibres are of course suitable for men and women. The fibres come in a range of shades so there is something for everyone,even grey. The packaging is very unisex,it's a no fuss application,and it lasts until you shampoo it out. If you or someone you know has a bald patch on thinning hair I would definitely recommend this product.
Viviscal is available from pharmacies nationwide.

Wow me Wednesday....Got2be Happy Hour hairspray

Welcome back to wow me Wednesday...

Today's review is a bit of a weird one but its something most of us use..its hairspray.
Do you want a stunning style that lasts? Then got2b happy hour 24 hour hairspray  will be your ultimate new best friend. Gives your style the long lasting hold you want  from morning until night.
First thing to mention...some hairsprays have a strong chemical scent..not this one  it has a fresh almost fruity scent.
This gives really good hold to the hair without stopping the hair from moving in a natural way. ...your  hair style is intact but the hair has good body and movement if that makes any sense?
You don't get helmet hair with this hairspray but you do get long lasting hold.
It also doesn't leave the hair crunchy which i hate. You can still run your fingers through your hair  without any stickiness or tackiness a huge plus point for me :)
This left my hair really shiny and was easy to brush out if i changed my mind on the style.
You can spray the whole head or spray individual strands to create a funkier style..whatever look you want this will hold it in place.
Available in Boots,Sam McCauleys and other selected pharmacies as well as some major supermarkets It is  priced at around  €5.75 or included in the 3 for 2 at boots right now
