It looks great. But am I old before my time?

coco -link doesn't work but I've got a feeling I know which image you might be linking to

niiiiiccccce

I like that

< goes into tailspin of self-doubt >

Is it...

cat with a Mary Portas style 'do'

Thanks Jamie, I take a few weeks break from MN and forget everything.

I re-did the Katie Holmes link for you, that's what I was referring to - not cat with ictrus fruit on head

Mary suffers from frizz in the rain though don't forget your Frizz Ease

I suppose it depends on what part the hairdo plays in you thinking she is 60+

lol coco, that is clearly phil spector though you meany

has he been sentenced btw?

Yes but look

Bugger. Hang on.

here

Viewed next to Mary it becomes a very real fear.

Bugger again. Just google images for Jeanette Krankie next to Mary Portas and see for yourself.

I ahve a longer version of a MPB.

I love it

I was Lily Allen a while back, then I morphed into Morticia Adams for a horrifying couple of weeks

Is it not quite high maintenance? Serious blow-drying etc? I'd look like a bell-head. Envious of people with the hair type to acrry it off

That's why I could never have it. I'm just not disciplined enough to keep it all neat and shiny. Mine would just look frizzy and foul.

I ahve quite wavy hair naturally but for some reason if I do a half decent blow dry with serum, it stays put until I wash it.

yes - my hair is wavy and get frizzy. but if the cut is just the right length, and I blowdry/straighten, I don't need to wash it too often and it stays put. That may sound like a faff to some, but my hair is the only beauty "thing" I spend money on.
