September 19, 2020 at 06:30AM We’re not sure about you, but our hair has been through it recently. Not only has it been forced to deal with the usual stresses that the warmer months bring, but it’s also spent a good chunk of the summer well overdue a cut. You

September 19, 2020 at 06:11AM When it comes to doing my own hair, I have zero patience for anything elaborate. Even the thought of the time it takes to curl or straighten my hair (for context, my hair is rather thick, and I am blessed with a decent wave pattern) is enough to

September 17, 2020 at 06:02PM As anyone with curly hair can likely attest to, curls are a constant journey of trial and error. Though everyone’s journey to embracing their natural texture is as varied as curl patterns themselves, the one thing that remains constant is that finding the perfect styling products

September 16, 2020 at 06:01AM When it comes to our body, time takes its toll on just about all of it. And although we know all too well what ageing does to our skin, when it comes to other areas of our beauty regimens, age is rarely factored in. From

September 16, 2020 at 05:30AM When it comes to my hair, I tend to fluctuate between two lengths: just above my shoulder or just above my boobs (both technical terms). Yet there always comes a time with both lengths when I start to feel like I want to either chop

September 15, 2020 at 07:00AM I’ve always had a complex relationship—or should I say situationship?—with hair straighteners. It was a coming-of-age ritual when my mum would pass a hot comb that had been heating up on a sweltering gas hob through my 4C natural hair.  As I swapped hot combs

September 12, 2020 at 07:00AM Do you know what kind of face shape you have? I think we all have our own ideas of what we think we look like in the mirror, but Narcissus himself probably couldn’t identify what kind of face shape he had. Because for years (all

September 03, 2020 at 07:00AM If there ever comes a time when you find yourself underneath my bed, you’ll find two hair tool boxes. One filled to the brim with tongs that couldn’t hold a curl, rogue hair brush drying tools and hairdryers purchased on a whim that never lived

September 03, 2020 at 06:06AM Talking about the onset of autumn can be fairly stressful when you’re still enjoying the dog days of summer and the lovely relishes that come with it: socially distanced s’more assemblage, daylight at 8 p.m., and pleasant temps at 8 a.m. Alas, fight though we did, it’s officially time

August 31, 2020 at 06:13AM Considering the fact that I’m a natural blonde who’s been bleaching her hair a shade or two lighter (be it by way of highlights, balayage, or all-over colour) for the last 15 years, it might surprise you to learn that, until recently, I’d never used a

August 31, 2020 at 06:01AM Probably one of the most overlooked hairstyles out there is mid-length hair. Between short pixies and chin-grazing cuts, to long, lustrous tresses, often we forget just how chic mid-length hairstyles can be. But right now, that seems to be changing. Chances are if you’re anything

August 29, 2020 at 06:30AM When it comes to hair tends, glossy, blunt cuts have most definitely reigned supreme as of late. For the last few years, we have found ourselves swooning over glossy, glass-like lengths and adding all of the blunt bob inspiration to our saved folders on Instagram. There’s

August 25, 2020 at 06:06AM When it comes to consistently good hair days, there’s one woman who seems to have been blessed by the beauty gods: Sienna Miller. Her iconic beachy blonde waves have been turning heads since her first breakout role in Layer Cake back in 2004. Sure, 16 years may have passed,

August 23, 2020 at 07:00AM Do you know what kind of face shape you have? I think we all have our own ideas of what we think we look like in the mirror. But Narcissus himself probably couldn’t identify what kind of face shape he had. Because for years (all

August 22, 2020 at 06:04PM When it comes to French style signifiers, there are some that immediately come to mind. Breton stripes are one, basket bags are another, and feline eyeliner flicks also have an undeniable je ne sais quoi about them. But when it comes to hair, there’s one style that feels more

August 21, 2020 at 04:00PM When it comes to switching up my hairstyle, I can get a little shy. In fact, I’ve had the same hairstyle (long, bleached, centre-parted) for nearly 10 years. And what’s really quite funny is that despite the fact my hair has looked the same that

August 21, 2020 at 07:00AM I’ve always had a complex relationship, or should I say situationship, with hair straighteners. It was a coming of age ritual when my mum would pass a hot comb that had been heating up on a sweltering gas hob through my 4C natural hair.  As
