Twisted-Curl Ponytail

My go to look for a neat and slightly more interesting look - the twisted curl. 

If you have thinner hair, this method could help to make the ponytail appear more voluminous and bouncy.

1. Start off with clean straight hair. Tie it up into a ponytail. This will still work whether you opt for a super high or a low ponytail:)
2. Start curling (I use a GHD straightener) small sections of hair into one direction. When you've finished with all sections, use your finger to twist into the direction of the curl and that's it! If product is required, apply and it should last for the whole day!

Cut and Colour by Taka さん at Maison Tsumiki Emporium

Didn't realise my hair was so long before! Thanks V for the before pics :)

This is a super late post and now I already need to go and get my hair cut + coloured again! Wondering what colour to go for and whether I should keep my fringe!

MAISON TSUMIKI ♥

Last week I had my hair saved - once again - by the lovely staff at Maison Tsumiki. A lot of people tell me I shouldn't be complaining about having thick hair but you can see in the below 'before' picture that it is VERY thick and of course hard to maintain.

I had my hair done at Salon De MILK in Shibuya, Japan when I was back for a short trip in October and this is the state after only 2 months. (Crazy hair!) Loved Salon De MILK by the way - highly recommended!

I asked for a 'Chestnut' colour without really knowing what colour it was. I guess I'm not too fussed when it comes to hair colour, I've always loved ash tones but they never seem to last on my hair for too long and the lighter the colour, the more often I have to re-colour so I'm super happy with this darker tone!

Very happy with my healthier hair and colour♥
