For those of you who have been following this blog during its first few weeks, you will already know that I'm allll about things BIG.
Get yer minds out the gutter, it's not even the weekend yet - I'm talking big hair, big lashes, big lips- oh, and big bargains and big surprises too.
Ticking at least two of the above is Batiste XXL. God, isn't dry shampoo such a GREAT invention? I am no stranger to dry shampoo given that I am no stranger to laziness and definitely no stranger to the snooze button!
I've been using the Batiste for almost a decade now and it's perfect for those desperate mornings when you're running late and your hair is two slicks and a seagull away from an oil rig. Gross.
And as the range developed, I tried the different fragrances - Blush, Boho, Tropical - all were fab at doing their job but then I discovered XXL and it was like I'd been eating margarine all my life and just discovered butter.

Go Big Or Go Home? Batiste XXL Dry Shampoo
Its the morning after the night before and last night some serious backcombing sins were committed! That moment when you know you just won't be able to get the knots out of your hair the next day, but you want just a teeny bit more oomph?
And so it was for months, I used to dread brushing my hair the next day just in case I broke the brush or lost it in the small hedgerow that my hair had become.
But then I met the Tangle Teezer which, although looks like a giant version of what I used to brush my Barbie horse with, is actually pretty darn good!

Tangle Teezer : No ordinary brush
"That's why her hair's so big.... it's full of secrets."
I’m gonna say it straight up - I love big hair. I don't care if it's associated with girls who have more air in their head than brains, for me backcombing is an almost daily activity. I saw this bottle in Boots and I had to try it out.

How does it work?
To use it, you spray it into the areas you want to boost and “jshush” it up. Seriously, these are the actual instructions on the bottle! I've never known how to spell jshush before..Read Full Post
