New hair

I was recently contacted and asked if I'd like to review the Tie Towel; a new product which promised "mess and stress free hair dying at home".  When the product arrived, I realised that the promotional information enclosed was also tailored for professional hair colouring, so off I trotted to see my sister at her salon to have my tresses transformed to a lighter shade of brown.

To my untrained eyes, the Tie Towel didn't seem that revolutionary - but when my sister showed it to the other girls in the salon they were all having a look and asking where she got it from.  The toggle on the front (which makes it look like a snazzy cape) was described as "a great idea" which would save them the hassle of trying to secure towels around shoulders with hair clips that always fall off.  The towel is totally bleach and colour resistant, which saves you from staining towels at home, and is customised to sit and fall perfectly around your neck and shoulders.  It was soft and comfy to wear; there's nothing worse than feeling strangled by the uncomfortably tight towel around your neck.

As I said, I'm not one for home dying, but this towel is definitely something that you should invest in if you do like to dye your hair yourself.  The Tie Towel costs £9.99 and is available from Boots, Superdrug or Asda.

FYI I was inspired by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley....as always.  My hair was stripped and then recoloured to get it to a lighter shade.  Ignore the slightly ginger-tone in the photos, I'll be posting proper pictures soon!

  2. Your new hair looks great.
    And the towel seems like a great idea! I've ruined tons of tops and towels from home hair dying.

  3. That sounds like it could be really useful - I home dye and there's nothing worse then having hair dye dripping all over your towels no matter how old they are.

    @HiFashion - thank you :) I'm loving being a bit lighter, just need to avoid the urge to go back to being a bottle blonde! x

    @Rachael - you should definitely invest, it was so comfy and easy to wear x
