Hair – to wash or not to wash?

Does frequent washing damage your hair?

 

So here’s a question! How often do you wash your hair?

 

The reason I ask is because I wash mine pretty much every day, and everyone I know says that’s bad. It’s not that I’m a clean freak, or that I love buying shampoo. I just can’t seem to get any more than two days out of clean hair!

IMATS London 2018 – Tips before going

Oh where to start! For anyone who doesn’t know IMATS (international Makeup Artist Trade Show) is a trade show that takes place each year in various countries around the world.

Not another beauty blog…

So here we are, another beauty blog adding to the long line of beauty bloggers.

As “normal” people ourselves, with limited time, budgets, and a wealth of skin issues and complaints, we hope that our trials and tribulations will be of some help.

If nothing else, we hope we might at least be entertaining!
