Hi MAMI!

I've seen so many people SLAYING frontals so I definitely had to try one myself but like you, I needed to make sure I bought a good frontal and got a great hair dresser to slay my life hunny!

I think no matter the vendor or hair seller, buying a frontal is a risk because you never know whether it will be a good batch or a bad batch sent. Luckily my hair seller assured me this was a really good frontal and after washing, bleaching and picking it; they definitely weren't lying.

Getting the frontal is one thing, but having it done right is another. My hair dresser did an amazing job by simply putting an elastic band on either side of the frontal and sewing it down tight. With a bit of gorilla snot and got 2 b hair glue my frontal was laid.

So quite a few of you asked me questions about my hair, where I bought it, who did it, how much it cost etc. I've put the link to where I got this hair below with a bit more information on the hair.















My hair was done by CECE, she is Leicester and London based and specialises in weaves and braiding. She not only helped me install the hair; she also picked the frontal, bleached the knots and styled my hair once finished... ALL FOR £35! Ladies, if this isn't a bargain I don't know what is. Don't play yourself, pick up your phones and check out their Instagram HERE.

I ordered my hair from an Aliexpress vendor called RECOOL Hair. It came as a 20" frontal and three bundles in 20" 22" 22" grade 8A Peruvian body wave CLICK HERE TO SLAY YOUR LIFE.

Hair tips

  • Want your edges laid and slayed? Invest in some got 2 b hair glue. Gone are the days of edge control and DR Miracle. You can buy this product in any bodycare shop and i'm sure you can buy it online or at a drugstore like superdrug or boots, but I got mine from bodycare. Simply wet your hair slightly, apply and let it dry.
  • Want bodywave hair? Note that body wave hair doesn't stay in the curls it comes in. To keep the curls, invest in a spray bottle and fill it with a mixture of good hair conditioner and water for no heat damage. Or a curling wand that will achieve the look you want.
  • First time having a frontal? Get a head scarf (preferably silk) and sleep with it in over night and/or wear it whenever you lay your edges to have a flawless finish anytime you step out.

What do you do when the sun comes out? You take advantage of it!
Being British, hot weather is uncommon; so when it does decide to come around… you put on a summer chic outfit, take your camera (if you have one), step out and EXPLORE!

I have a strange relationship with impromptu shopping sprees when I literally go out to get milk but come back with bags full of clothes, shoes and make up! It's like a love/hate relationship! I leave with empty hands and a full bank account and come back with full hands and an empty bank account. Oddly, i'm satisfied either way! Money well spent!

This impromptu shopping trip was all that and more once I purchased one of my favourite make up items so far; the Mac Bittersweet pro long-wear lip pencil. I've only recently become a lip liner/lip pencil fanatic, but this is by far my favourite. Since (I hate to admit it) Kylie Jenner dropped her True Brown K liquid lipstick, I fell in love with the dark brown lip look and craved my own. It cost me a whopping £15 but it was worth every penny because it literally lasts all day. 

This lip pencil is so soft and almost literally glides across your lips, leaves a matte finish and lasts for hours. It's perfect for those busy days when you have no time to top up, or the days when you forget to take your make up bag with you.

P.S. If you don't already own one, before buying your lip pencil, make sure you purchase a cosmetic sharpener because a normal one just won't do the job with this particular lip pencil.


If you want a more dewy and less matte finish, you can overlay the bittersweet lip pencil with Mac's Satin Lipstick. For two brown but slightly different tones, you can either use the Mac Satin lipstick in the Media shade (an intense reddish purple), or in the Film Noir shade (an intense brown).
Take your pick!
I used the lip pencil on its own because I prefer a matte finish and because it's more durable.
