My favourite hair accessories are the revolutionary cylindrical and flat-backed Linziclips, reviewed here. I am willing to shout this out from the rooftops. These are comfortable and sturdy and come with hidden springs, so no danger of getting my already-tangly hair caught. Best of all, I can lean back without the clip digging right into my brain. And, they come in beautiful designs, and in three sizes. They are must-haves and they make great stocking stuffers. 

Here is your chance to win these gorgeous clips for yourself. You can choose sizes and also if you want subtle or bright designs. Exact designs may not be chosen, and photographs in this post are for illustrative purposes only and may not depict the actual prize.
I bet the winners will LOVE these - if you win, do share photos of yourself wearing your clips.
Now, I know there can only be a few winners, so what you can do is, you can head over and enter my Instagram giveaway of these as well (live now)! Double the winners; double the Linziclips! What are you waiting for?

Fuss-free Half-up, Half-down Ponytail Tutorial For Frizzy Hair

Fuss-free Half-up, Half-down Ponytail Tutorial For Frizzy Hair

Tutorials Cosmetopia Digest   Monday, February 23, 2015

Try out this super-easy, everyday ponytail that is voluminous and bouncy. 

Ponytails are usually synonymous with sleek hair but my super-frizzy hair does not give a toss. My go-to hairstyle for almost everything from work to play is a half-up, half-down ponytail. It keeps the hair tangle-free and away from my back, and is not flat, but bouncy and voluminous. Not as serious as a bun and far more convenient than open hair. My hair is quite long and leaving it open and loose everyday would mean serious detangling every night.
All you need for this look are two accessories - a hair tie or a scrunchie, and a claw clip. I recommend the flat-backed revolutionary Linziclip, with hidden springs - reviewed here. The beauty of this style is that the hair tie is hidden, so you can actually wear a scrunchie without feeling that the world is laughing at you for staying back in the 1990s.
Here's how you get this fuss-free, wearable frizzy-hair ponytail.

Egad, it's December already! It feels like I was celebrating Christmas 2013 just yesterday, in the Persian Gulf. I got the tree out today and will go shopping for a couple of new ornaments on Thursday. The little fairy - knitted by my paternal grandmother - to go on the top of the tree has been missing for the last two years and I wasn't happy with the star I got last year. I've done the presents already, including a couple of small treats for myself.
On this blog, there will be a couple of Christmas-special giveaways this month, so do stay tuned for your chance to win a couple of presents for yourself. 
But before I tell you about those giveaways, here are the winners of the Linziclip claw hair clip giveaway! For those who haven't heard about Linziclips, go here to read my full review of these gorgeous hair accessories.

I seem to have caught some kind of bug from the trekking holiday I took last week. The doctor has given me antibiotics and told me to take it easy, so I hope to get more time to blog!
Yesterday, I had reviewed the Linziclip claw hair clips and shared some of their gorgeous designs. Today, I am delighted to announce a giveaway of Linziclips, open worldwide, to three winners, thanks to the generosity of the Linshell Group. The photograph above is for illustrative purposes only and may not depict the Linziclips that the winners will receive.

If you have not heard of the Linziclips yet, do click here to read my feature straightaway. These are revolutionary improvements on the traditional butterfly clips, and do not dig into your head even when you lean back. And, because the springs are hidden, hair does not get caught in the clips. They come in three sizes, Maxi, Midi and Mini. More details, including where to purchase, are in my feature.

Hair up, I'm driving home at the end of the day. There is a traffic jam. Sigh. I hit the brakes, change gears, look around for a bit and lean back... OUCH! Darn hairclip goes right through my scalp. Brain, it feels like. Happened to you? I have lost count of the number of times in one DAY that I flinch, when this happens.
It happened to entrepreneur Lindsey Walker and fashion lawyer and columnist Shelley-Anne Salisbury when both were at a party. They found themselves trying to pin their hair back at the same time, using the traditional butterfly or claw clip, which, Lindsey tells me hasn't changed in design since 1989! Mutual rants turned into a mutual decision to come up with a less painful hair clip - it was, as Lindsey calls it, a "eureka moment". And thus, the Linziclip was born.
