About six months ago I was picked to trial and review the Babyliss Micro Crimper, before it arrived I didn't think it was going to be anything too exciting as I'm just old enough to remember the vile crimped hairstyles of the 80s. Not old enough to have them though! I thought I'd end up trying it, passing it onto my daughter and eventually Ebaying it after re-understanding that crimping should never be back in fashion. It's been a brilliant gadget though. Not the sort of thing I'd use all the time because it's a bit more time consuming than I'd like, but between me and my two oldest daughters I'd say we use it at least twice a week between ...  Read the complete review

For Christmas I was given a £20 gift card for boots so that I could treat myself to makeup, bath products, perfume-anything I wanted really. The truth was, I didn't really need anything as the things I did need and want I had got as gifts for Christmas! Despite this I couldn't resist nipping to my local Boots store to see if they had anything new in so that I could spend my voucher. I've backcombed my hair for as long as I can remember as my hair is so flat otherwise! Sometimes its lightly teased other times it's quite volumous and if you have any experience with backcombing you'll know how hard it is to restore your hair to its smooth self ...  Read the complete review

I am constantly on a mission to volumise my hair. i have used various products, from mousse, to teasing brushes and now this: the Babyliss Root Boost. I originally saw the advert for this product a few months ago on television. I spent a while looking up reviews and eventually settled on purchasing it. I don't think that it was badly priced. When I purchased mine, near its release date, it cost about £29.99, but I believe you can now buy it for around £25. Most hair and beauty shops, such as Sally's and Boots and online shops such as Amazon stock this product. It came in a nicely presented box and when I opened it it was slim and light to ...  Read the complete review

Babyliss Root Booster was one of those beauty hair products that I had to have as soon as I saw it advertised. I have log hair which I would say is quite medium in thickness I would love to have thick hair but sadly it just was not to be. I also have ears which sometimes stick out of my hair which I hate my usual way of dealing with this is to clip in extensions which thicken up my hair hiding that pesky sticky out ear. Anyway I asked for the Root Booster for Christmas and had it out of the box as soon as it was un wrapped I could not wait. Taking the root booster out of the box I found my new product it is half the size of my regular straightner in thickness ...  Read the complete review

I have always had rather flat hair, that when left down does not look particularly thick and would probably be described as limp and although I have tried many volumising sprays and shampoos I have never really been able to make much of a difference in terms of thickness and volume. However, I saw the root bost on offer in argos and thought I would give it a try. This product does exactly what is says it do... it instantly adds volume and thickness to your hair... you simply partition hair and 'crimp' hair only at the very base/root of the hair. It is best to start from the top of your head and work your way down, clipping hair to the other side of your head ...  Read the complete review
