The reason I was absent... :)

Thought I would just do a quick post to show you my holiday :) I went to Devon with my boyfriend and his family :). Here are a few snaps...

There was lots of sheep at the place we were staying, they were sooo cute! Noisy neighbours though!

Relaxing in the pool :) this is the bikini I featured in a previous haul :)

We went to the beach for the day and James (my beau) went surfing. This photo makes me laugh, looks like he's posing.

The weather was gorgeous but I got horrible sunburn :(

  

James having a nice cold beer :)

We also went clay pigeon shooting but I wasn't very good. The guns were so heavy!

It was so nice to relax and do nothing after all my exams, I kept having midday naps for a few hours a day, I was so tired. Now I'm back in the swing of things and I've got more time on my hands to spend on my blog :) Thank you for everyone who 'followed' me while I was away. I just want to say a big thank you to everyone who has followed me, I'm so close to 100 followers and I thought I might get 10 or so! Blimey. I'm so grateful to all of you :).

Thank you for reading :)

What shall I do with my hair?!

I'm having a problem. My hair is horrible. It's in terrible condition from me bleaching and dying it. I'm going to sixth form in September and I feel my hair needs a change. Here are some photos of my previous hair styles... (some of these photos are really old by the way).

My natural hair colour... I think. This photo was taken about 3-4 years ago.

Next was my bleaching stage. Well, this killed my hair. Originally the underneath of my hair was black but then faded to brown. At the time I loved it, looking back I think it looks horrible on me!

   

Then I went red. The photo doesn't show how red I really was. It was like a rich red colour but in the light it looked bright red. The colour was beautiful but I didn't keep dying it as I knew i'd be going to sixth form and the sixth form i'm going to doesn't allow extreme hair styles/colours.

The most recent photo of me. Please excuse the makeup, was playing about recreating the Geordie Shore look for a laugh. As you can see my hair is not red anymore but has slight reddish tones. I haven't dyed my hair at all since I went red so the colour I have now is a mixture of faded red and platinum blonde.

Also, my hairstyle has stayed pretty consitent through the years. I have fine hair and hardly any of it. It's also naturally straight, so getting volume in my hair is a bit of a pain. It's also damaged from me bleaching my hair for a year.

What do you guys think? What should I do with my mop. As I already said, the sixth form I will be attending in September doesnt allow extreme hair styles or colours. Im stuck in hair hell!

Thank you for reading :)

P.S sorry for my lack of posts, I have more posts planned for the next few days!
