It suddenly dawned on me a few weeks ago that now I am not working full time in a ‘normal’ job that I can do whatever the heck I want to with my hair. When I was a hotel manager for a large company we had to have ‘natural’ looking hair, and actually the rules have since relaxed a little which I am pleased about because how a person looks doesn’t stop them dealing with…
This post is written in partnership with Andrex® Christmas is just one day, but the build up lasts weeks or even months.
