Thread title inspired by the 'it's time' Christmas trend as it's now time for Christmas now halloween is over!

@Beckafett Oh that would be fab if you have one with good hair thanks! I'd been pondering giving a hair cut to the disney animator one as she has chunky cheeks like the baby...

Edit - I'm not obsessed with doll hair BTW, I've just never managed to smooth out any with boiling water/conditioner/any of the tricks from way back when my older ds was obsessed with ripping out individual hairs to get to sleep (until the age of 3...) and I tried to switch him to my little ponies after losing most of my hair 😅

Gah worried about my White Fox order for DD now - ordered M/L hoodie she is probably a size 10 but wanted it big/baggy which felt reasonable until I read all of these comments. Does anybody know what size that will be?

I did this, ordered a M/L so it would be oversized but when it arrived it was huge, I'd say a size 16 easily. I've returned mine but it's taking an age.

Previous posters advised they sell well on Vinted so might be better selling on there rather than returning? My return has taken 3 weeks so far and still waiting 🙄

Does anyone live near/pass a John Lewis that has the quality street coffee creme crackers in stock? Been trying desperately to get them online but constantly sold out!

I got mine from Waitrose if that helps?

I recently brought one from H&M and I am happy with it. I too was bewildered by the amount I found online and figured at least with H&M I could return it if needed!

@Justonedayatatime11 I do live near one that apparently has 16 in stock but I'm not visiting until approx 2 weeks. If you're still after one I can always check then

@Christmasnearlydone as a curly mum of curly children, I second Only Curls. I've tried everything, and thoroughly recommend it.

Thank you! And @slithytoveisascientist and @Beautifulsunflowers I will check these out 😃

AlbertCampion · 06/11/2023 22:48

Another recommendation for Only Curls! Worth getting their app cos they frequently have offers etc through that.

Ohh thanks for the Vera Wang perfume tip - I had enough boots points to cover it so nice gift for me on the way! Not a posh perfume but one of my faves!

bizzey · 06/11/2023 23:49

Do we think the Milkshake leave in conditioner, that was fantasticly priced last year ? the year before ?
will appear again .

How would I keep a check on the prices ?

My DS absolutely loved it and our 2 bottles have finished .

He has very lovely long curls , but I think curly girl stuff is out of my price range for him 🤣.

I think it was at £1.95 or £2.95 bracket ?

Daimyum · 06/11/2023 23:49

There's a company called OLEW that does the best oil for curly hair. Babipur sell it and there was a code on here for 15% off I'm sure, or you order from the company.

bizzey · 07/11/2023 00:00

Thank you ...I will look them up .
