40 Heatless Days

It’s been proven hundreds of times that using heated tools is the biggest cause of hair damage and since I’m endeavouring to grow my hair I’ve been trying to use so..
(I've put everything heat related away in box under my bed to avoid temptation!)
I’ve decided to go 40 days without anything hot touching my hair, including hair dryers, straighteners, curlers, crimpers, wavers etc… and I’m going to do a little post at the end to let you know if I’ve actually noticed a difference to the health of hair!

Have any of you done something similar?
And more importantly are any of you going to join me in scrapping the hot tools for a while?! xx

(you’re hair always grows at the same pace however the more damage you do to your hair the easier it breaks of so sometimes it looks like your hair isn’t growing when in fact it’s just breaking off!)

P.S I’m making an exception for my birthday and for prom both of which fall into the next 40 days, but I'm just going to add on an extra two days to make up for it :)

My Birthday Look FOTD

I pretty much always have my hair straight(as it’s naturally very straight) but since it was my birthday I fancied curling it for a change
I used my new curling tongs which are roughly 1inch. It took forever as my hair does not like being curled however I do love curls! As expected the curls dropped pretty quickly do I just threw it up in a messy bun before going out for dinner with the family

As expected the curls dropped out my hair at around 4ish so I just popped it up in a messy bun – I’ve started putting the bun to one side I think it looks pretty =]

Anyway onto make up - I wanted something pretty subtle and natural as family would be popping in all day, something inoffensive that i didn't need to top up :P

Face
Bourjois’ 10 hour sleep – I had 2 hours sleep!!! I wasn’t tired at all on my birthday though… very odd :p
I set it lightly with NYC lose powder – I’m trying to use up some of my setting powders…
And then a sweeped a little Georgia from benefit all over =]

Eyes
Gosh velvet liner in black on my top lash line
Gosh velvet liner in blue along my lower lash line – lol the blue just added a ‘pop’ of colour :p
And a mix of mascaras – still no look finding a dupe for my bad gal!
- no eyeshadows :(
I actually really like this look, it's pretty toned down but it's still me :)

Lips
I had revlon's colorstay ultimate liquid lipstick - review of this coming up soon :)
