Sweaty Hair

Dealing With The Summertime Curse of Sweaty Hair

/in , , , /by

We’ve all felt it, after a night spent tossing and turning, battling summer temperatures: the dismay when we look in the mirror and see slick strands of hair hanging down from a moist and greasy hairline. Here at Flip-In Hair, we are determined to equip you for any seasonal hair care challenges that life throws at you, so let’s delve into ways of dealing with the unpopular sweaty hair phenomenon.

Tackling The Scent Of Sweaty Hair

Interestingly, it’s not the act of sweating that produces a rank and embarrassing smell. A buildup of sebum, product, dead skin cells and sweat mixed together nurtures the natural bacteria residing on your scalp and produces a stink. Leaving it to accumulate and then air dry contributes to a long-lasting and rancid smell, so washing your hair is crucial, although you don’t want to dry out your locks by doing it too frequently.

If mere shampooing in the shower is not enough to vanquish the smell, there are a variety of traditional remedies you can try, such as using essential oils, aloe vera or even lemon juice. Healthline dissects the different solutions and matches them with specific conditions that may also cause a sweaty scalp, so if you suspect your hair smells for a different reason, be sure to check them out!

Prevention And After Care

If you’re headed for a session or activity where you expect to end up with sweaty hair, you can take preventative measures which lessen the probability of sticky tresses. Firstly, wear a sweat-wicking headband to absorb moisture at your hairline or go the full way and cover up with a headscarf or bandana, a stylish solution which also protects your scalp against bleaching and sun damage.

Secondly, use dry shampoo before exercising. Like your headband, dry shampoo will absorb excess sweat and oils, leaving you looking and feeling refreshed. Follow up afterwards with a styling mousse or stay-in conditioner, to replenish the stock of moisture that the sweat removed from the scalp.

Hairstyles To Conceal Sweaty Hair

Life happens. It doesn’t always leave room for a convenient shower or for applying dry shampoo. Try out some of these cute and practical hairstyles to hide what’s really going on underneath.

A ponytail is a classic, suggesting sports and activity as well as keeping your hair neatly out of sight. However, braids do an excellent job of weaving strands together so that no one can see how limply the hair is hanging down. The brilliant thing about braids is that they are limitless – French braids, Dutch braids, crowns, pigtails, updos…You can even wear your sweaty hair down when you sweep a greasy fringe away from your face with some tiny twists or intricate plaits.

Alternatively, rock the look with messy topknots or wacky space buns, especially when dressing in sportswear that says you don’t care. You are active, you are fun and you are making the most of this summer weather. No one’s going to argue with sweaty hair in that scenario!

Bleached Hair

Dodging Sun-Bleached Hair This Spring

/in , , , , /by

With Britain’s summer weather proving even more wildly unpredictable these past few years, everyone is on tenterhooks wondering when the sun will come out, and for how long. Surely long sunny days at the beach or in the park can’t be too far off?

With the prospect of more sun comes the worry of what it will do to the hair after it has weathered the cold and windy months. We might adore the sun, but its UV rays are penetrating and powerful and prolonged exposure can rob your tresses of their natural glowing colour. The UV reacts with the melanin in the hair, robbing it of its natural pigmentation and leaving it much lighter.

 

Don’t go off-colour with Sun-Bleached Hair

Bleached hair seems all the rage online, especially when it’s done naturally. Lemon juice and vinegar pop up as aids to lightening your tresses by way of the sun. If this is something you are planning to do, make sure you rinse thoroughly and apply conditioner afterwards.

However, the colourless craze poses a great danger to the health of your mane. The sun’s rays subdue melanin; the hair’s natural pigment which retains its colour, moisture and vitality.

If you’ve taken advantage of our vibrant colour matching service, then the last thing you’ll want is for this to become frustrated.

 

Protect yourself

As well as causing it to be dry and brittle, sun-bleached hair can pose serious risks to your long term health. Melanin also works to absorb ultraviolet rays from penetrating your hair and skin, protecting your cells from skin cancer.

The British Skin Foundation has published general advice on how to protect yourself as May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month.

At Flip-In Hair extensions, we can also recommend:

  • Wear a hat or headscarf (a headscarf might be more suitable to stop ‘hat hair’).
  • Swap that tight bun for a loose plait: Pulling on fragile hairs can damage them.
  • Avoid chlorine or hair treatments- the chemicals can react with the sun and exacerbate bleached hair.
  • Consider using UV protection spray. This Charles Worthington formula contains Moringa seed extract and is available to buy for £2.99 from Boots.
  • You can also combine this with protective shampoo. Charles Worthington also offers a version which contains UV Filters and washes away chlorine. This too is being sold at Boots for £2.99.

 

Extending hair doesn’t mean extending vulnerability

If you’re planning on adding a flamboyant flash of summer colour to your locks, then be assured you can enjoy our full range without having to worry about bleached hair.

There are a whole load of ways to keep in touch with us for all the gorgeous inspiration you deserve. You can follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Pinterest and Instagram.

Choosing Hair Extensions

Choosing Hair Extensions To Suit You

/in , , , , /by

Shopping for a new hairstyle can be exciting, but the product needs to look right on you, not just in the store or on the website. Flip-In’s impressive assortment of colours, lengths and styles means you have near limitless options! We can see how choosing hair extensions from this massive list might be intimidating, but never fear, Flip-In is here, to guide you through colours, products and styles.

 

The Practical Side Of Choosing Hair Extensions

We have straight, bodywave, wider, back, lite and spiral curl hair extensions. But which ones to choose? Ringlets? Summery beach waves?

Our extensions, made from 100% human hair, can be curled or straightened normally to suit any occasion, provided you take the correct precautions to protect them from heat. Alternatively, you can style your hair to match the product. If you’re choosing hair extensions for the first time, it might be wiser to pick ones that are a continuation of your natural hairstyle, so you don’t have to worry about seamlessly blending the two.

 

Selecting The Perfect Style

If you’re feeling adventurous and confident in your blending and styling abilities, then it’s time to consider your face shape. None of these are hard and fast rules, but they can serve as an effective guide.

People with oval-shaped faces can generally take their pick of hairstyles, but you should be aware when choosing a long straight extension that they appear to lengthen the face. This can be a strong choice for round faces, as long hair has a slimming effect.

Bodywaves are looser curls, soft and versatile, suitable for round, square, long and triangular-shaped faces. They add plenty of volume without stacking it up around the crown. Bodywave extensions might be a good call if you’re uncertain.

Spiral curls are tight ringlet-type curls. They are very effective at adding volume and a good move for rectangular and heart-shaped faces where you want to increase the face width. Spiral curl and bodywave styles are available for lite, wider, back and original products, attesting to their popularity.

We have our own special solution for fine hair with our Flip-In Lite, if you think our extensions sound too bulky. If your hair is on the thin side, this product was designed especially for you! It’s available in straight, spiral curl or body wave versions and in our full range of colours so, one way or another, we’ve got you covered.

 

Finding The Right Colour

Colours are controversial. Some experts claim that warmer complexions should be reflected in warmer hair colours such as yellow, copper or red, whereas other experts advocate for warm skin tones and cooler hair colours such as green, violet or ash. At Flip-In Hair, we don’t care, so long as you are happy! That’s why we offer a professional colour matching service, so you can know that you have made the right decision.

If you’re at a complete loss, look at your eyes. Blue or grey eyes complement lighter hair, dark eyes suit brunette shades and green eyes go wonderfully with red.

Remember, you can’t tint or dye your extensions without risking damage. Luckily, with 40 different shades to choose from, plus two-tone and tri-blend products, that shouldn’t be necessary.

As if that wasn’t enough, we offer bespoke extensions. Contact us today to get the hair of your dreams.

Styling Hair Extensions

Tips and Tricks for Styling Hair Extensions

/in , , , /by

How do you recreate the new spring hair craze without buying more extensions or damaging what you’ve already bought? Luckily, styling hair extensions is simpler and safer with creations made from 100% human hair, like Flip-In’s products. With the correct precautions, there is nothing to stop you from achieving bouncy curls or neat straight locks with minimum fuss.

 

Styling Hair Extensions With Heat

Applying heat to synthetic hair can cause untold damage, increasing the likelihood of fragile and broken strands or even shrinkage. Luckily, heat tools are no threat to our authentic creations provided the required protection is always used.

Heat protectant is available as an oil, spray or serum, to be applied either to wet or dry hair. It also protects your natural tresses, with various manufacturers claiming to eliminate frizz and ensure a shiny finish, making such a purchase thoroughly worth it.

Before using a hairdryer, squeeze out any excess water from the extensions. Spray or smooth wet-hair-appropriate protectant onto your locks from root to tip and gently blow-dry until any lingering water droplets disappear. Next, section the hair and begin drying in earnest. Some people prefer to leave the brushing stage until afterwards, although others recommend using a comb to detangle the extensions before getting down to business.

When you’re reaching for the curling tongs it is crucial to make sure that your extensions are absolutely Sahara-dry. Wet hair is more fragile and so heating damp strands is a recipe for brittleness, dullness, split ends and tangling. Bottom line – make sure your hair is dry and your protectant is set.

From this point onwards, styling your hair extensions is exactly the same as styling your natural hair!

 

Cool Styling

Styling hair extensions without using heat is fairly easy and has come a long way since the hard rollers we saw on the 1950s television housewife. For instance, you can roll portions of your hair around foam spiral rollers and then clip the roller ends together to form a comfortable loop.

Alternatively, plait your hair into multiple braids and keep them in for a night. Shake them out in the morning, carefully pulling apart the knots with your fingers, and add hairspray for longer-lasting results. Adjust the number of plaits according to how tight you want your waves. Sometimes the tried and tested methods are the best!

 

Styling Hair Extensions: Tips And Tricks

We’ll leave you with two pieces of advice and a warning before you dive into styling hair extensions:

Remember to blend! Depending on its length, you may want to curl or crimp your own crowning glory to ensure it merges perfectly.

Hair oil provides nourishment, improves shine and helps restore any damage unwittingly caused by heat.

A word to the wise – dying or tinting extensions is a risky business and could wreak havoc on your purchase, so we recommend that you make sure you are 100% happy with the colour you have chosen.

Spring Hair Care

Spring Hair Care Tips

/in , , , , /by

What’s this? A sun that actually generates warmth? Going outside without a coat? Walks in the rain that manage to be romantic rather than painful? But there’s a dark side to this welcome warmth. As the temperature changes, your hair becomes more fragile and prone to shedding, exacerbated by excessive sun exposure, whilst April raindrops wash away the natural oils. So what to do during the spring days when the last thing you want to do is hide your hair under a hat? Perhaps you need a new spring hair care routine…

 

Spring Hair Care Tips To Avoid Breakage

Should you wash your hair frequently during warmer weather? Protect it from raindrops transferring dirt from the air to the scalp? Our advice…don’t. The more you wash and shampoo your locks the more you risk breakage and washing out the natural oils, which keep your scalp healthy.

Similarly, you might want to adjust your spring hair care routine by brushing out your hair before showering, and switching out heat-based curling methods for gentler ones such as rollers – this prevents fragility and minimises spring shedding.

 

Hair Care Tips To Nourish Your Scalp

If you have a dry scalp, or your hair washing has already proved too rigorous, there are plenty of ways in which to supplement the oils in your hair, so don’t panic!

You can massage a teaspoon of coconut oil, argan oil, or a mixture of plant-based hair oils (olive, almond, castor) into your scalp to rejuvenate it. Following this spring hair care tip will also reduce dandruff and promote hair growth – bonus!

There’s also the option to supplement your spring diet with foods high in oils and fatty acids, such as certain types of fish (mackerel, salmon, herring). Avocados, nuts and seeds are brilliant repositories of vitamins and essential fatty acids (and they taste delicious)! Even dark chocolate has a lot to offer, containing nutrients which prevent sun damage and improve hair quality.

 

Alternative Ways To Care For Your Hair This Spring

Consider nourishing your hair with a leave-in treatment. Hair masks are sometimes applied dry, sometimes wet and some are left on while you sleep, whichever suits your spring hair care routine.

Or there are leave-in conditioners – there are hundreds of different products available to you! They do everything from nourishing split ends to reducing frizz. They also add moisture and eliminate tangles after washing. Easy-peasy to apply, just towel dry your hair after washing and then smooth the conditioner in. Brush, and either style or leave alone to dry. Minimal effort, leaving you to take that walk in the park or sun yourself in the garden while the oils and butters do their thing.

The Benefits Of Hair Oil

The Benefits Of Hair Oil

/in , , , /by

If you’re wondering why on earth we would encourage you to add oil to your hair, hear us out. The many benefits of hair oil is going to be the topic of conversation today! We’re here to teach you about why you should be adding another step to your routine to ensure your hair stays healthy and beautiful!

The History Of Hair Oil

The practice of oiling hair has been used in India for centuries and is recommended in Ayurvedic medicine. More recently, it’s become a well-known practice in the Western world, with many now reaping the benefits of hair oil. When we say hair oil, we’re referring to any oil – or combination of oils – that are added to the hair and scalp. And no, plain vegetable oil won’t do the trick! However, if you have very thick, dry hair, olive oil could certainly help.

Two oils that have been widely used for years are castor and almond oil. This combination was a favourite amongst the Ancient Egyptians, who were well aware of the benefits of hair oil. Due to the extreme heat at the time, the women of Ancient Egypt used this mixture to keep their hair soft, hydrated and long. That’s right, it was even used to promote growth! But what else is hair oil good for?

Discovering The Benefits Of Hair Oil

The women of Ancient India and Egypt were really on to something when they started oiling their hair! The action of adding oil to the scalp and massaging it increases blood circulation, which in turn has been shown to promote hair growth and prevent dandruff. And these aren’t the only benefits of hair oil either!

If you’re not sold on the idea because you already have an oily scalp, there’s no need to worry. Although they can be annoying, our body produces natural oils in order to protect our skin and scalp. By introducing an oil treatment to your routine, you will actually be helping your hair to become stronger, healthier and thicker. Oils contain fatty acids, or lipids, which naturally occur in the hair, but can be lost due to styling, pollution, or exposure to chemicals. So, really, you’re doing your hair a favour!

To take advantage of the benefits of hair oil, you could use a mixture of the oils mentioned above, or opt for coconut or argan oil instead. You’ll be sure to see the best results if you massage your chosen oil blend into your scalp and the lengths of your hair and leave it for a few hours, or overnight if possible, before washing it out.

 

Keep Your Hair Looking Healthy

As well as making the most of the benefits of hair oil, you can ensure that your hair looks thicker and healthier thanks to our range of luxury hair extensions. They don’t involve clips, glue or weaving, so you can take them out as quickly as you put them in, which means you can use your fave oil blend before bed!

If you have thin hair and you’re worried about being weighed down, we suggest you go for Flip-In Hair Lite. If you don’t have thin hair, we’re afraid these extensions won’t be the right fit for you. In this case, you’ll need Flip-In Hair – the product that got us started!

We also offer a colour match service to ensure your new extensions blend seamlessly with your natural hair. If you’re not sure which of our products to opt for, our team will be happy to help.

Spring Hairstyles

Spring Hairstyles To Try In 2022

/in , , , , , /by

A new season means one thing – new spring hairstyles! Of course, the arrival of this season also marks the start of longer days and warmer evenings, but why not think about your hair too? There’s nothing like mixing things up a little and now is the perfect time to do just that!

Feeling overwhelmed? Don’t worry, because the Flip-In Hair team are here to help! We’re going to share everything we know about the latest hairstyle trends for spring 2022!

Why Not Embrace Your Natural Hair This Spring?

One of the biggest spring hairstyles we’ll see this season is embracing your natural hair and everything that comes with it! Whether it’s beachy waves or tight curls, why not work with what you’ve got instead of spending hours manipulating your tresses?

To make this spring hairstyle a little easier for you to manage, it’s definitely in your best interest to grab some products that work for you: sulphate-free shampoo and a leave-in curl cream, for example. Going down the sulphate-free route means you will be able to minimise any potential damage to your locks, whilst ensuring that you can still thoroughly cleanse your hair.

However, if this isn’t quite for you, our next option might be the perfect alternative!

For Simple Spring Hairstyles, Think Straight And Sleek

Another trend we’re sure to see this spring is straight, sleek styles, most likely featuring a middle parting. If you’ve been on TikTok over the last few months, you’ll have seen that Gen Z have spoken and middle parts are in. Don’t get us wrong, we’re not saying you need to listen to everything you hear on TikTok, but this is something that we’re in agreement with.

In order to get this look, you need to think about the tools you’re using and protect your hair against any heat damage. There’s nothing more annoying than styling your hair, only to find out you’ve been left with dry, lifeless locks. What’s even worse is realising that even after trying your best to look after your hair… something is still missing. If that’s the case, we know what you need – Flip-In Hair Lite. These extensions have been designed to give thin hair the oomph it needs to complete any one of the fabulous new spring hairstyles we’ve mentioned today.

If you still want to rock a side parting, we’re here for it! Whatever you want to do with your look this spring, we’ve got you covered. With no clips, glue or weaving, our extensions are easy to fit and incredibly comfortable to wear. Our team is always on hand to help you with any questions you may have.

Contact Us To Get Your New Favourite Spring Hairstyles Sorted

We’re here for all of your needs this spring! We aim to make it even easier for you to take our advice when it comes to spring hairstyles. With that in mind, we can guarantee your new extensions will match your natural hair thanks to our colour match service.

To find out more about our extensions, or to purchase yours, visit our website today! You can also call us on 01926 659 500 or email admin@flipinhair.com.

Romantic Hairstyle

Romantic Hairstyle To Try This Valentine’s Day

/in , /by

Whether you’re staying at home this Valentine’s Day or going out out, you can still get dressed up! You’ve got the dress, the shoes and the accessories – but what about your hair? Don’t spend ages scrolling through Insta looking for the perfect new romantic hairstyle to recreate, you’ve got better things to do, right?

We’re here to share our favourite romantic hairstyles with you to ensure you can take as little time getting ready as possible, leaving you with more time to spend with your love (or loves, if you’re out with the girls)!

 

The Ultimate Romantic Hairstyle, Half-Up Half-Down

 

For decades, the half-up half-down look has been considered one of the most romantic hairstyles and we’re sure you can see why! Many people tend to opt for this style for their wedding, including The Duchess of Cambridge herself. And if it’s good enough for her…

If you’re not keen on a more traditional, slicked back version of this romantic style, you could opt for a curly, twisted alternative. All you need to do is curl your hair away from your face, gather a section of hair underneath your crown, twist it around and pin it to the back of your head. After this, gather sections to the right and left of this middle section and pin it to the same area. You can do this with several more sections of hair to add to this look.

It might seem complicated, but this hairstyle only requires a few bobby pins and a curling iron to achieve! If your hair isn’t quite thick enough, you may need a bit of extra help, which is where Flip-In Hair Lite comes in! It’s perfect for those who don’t want to weigh their hair down but still wish to create the romantic hairstyle of their dreams!

 

Another Romantic Hairstyle To Try, Old Hollywood Glamour

 

Best illustrated by Rita Hayworth, beautiful, soft curls were all the rage in the Golden Age of Cinema, but that certainly doesn’t mean they have no place in 2022. This style takes a little bit more time to create but with any luck, it could last for up to an entire wash cycle!

All you need is to get hold of your curling tongs (the wider the barrel, the better) and separate your hair into even sections. When you curl your hair, curl it towards your face. We know this might seem strange but it’s best for this romantic hairstyle. You only need to curl for a few seconds to get this look nailed. When you finish with each curl, try not to disturb each one and pin it up with an alligator clip. Then you need to wait until your hair has completely cooled before you let your curls loose, brush through them and add a little serum for a bit more shine!

You can really pull this look together by adding some extra volume with Flip-In Hair Straight – Wider. This option fits around the back of your head, over the ears and nearer to your face to give you much more to work with!

 

How We Can Help You This Valentine’s Day

 

We’re here for all of your romantic hairstyle needs this Valentine’s Day and to make it even easier for you, you can ensure your new extensions match your natural hair with our colour match service.

Hair Care Tips

The Best Hair Care Tips We’ve Been Given

/in , , , , /by

Over the years, we’ve heard a lot of advice about what we should and shouldn’t be doing to our hair. Some so-called tips were just old wives’ tales, but that can’t be said for everything! Looking after your hair can be something of a minefield and that’s exactly why the Flip-In Hair team are going to share the best hair care tips we’ve been given with you, just to make your life a little bit easier!

 

The Best And Easiest Hair Care Tip – Wash Your Hair Regularly

This might sound like an obvious one, but we’re sharing it for good reason! Sometimes, because it can seem like it just takes too much time and effort to wash your hair, some people try to go as long as possible without washing theirs. However, this is not something we recommend.

Why is this one of the best hair care tips we’ve been given? Well, it all comes down to scalp buildup, which you’re probably familiar with. When you forego washing your hair, sebum (it’s on your scalp too), sweat, styling products and a host of other things settle on your scalp. This can make it flaky and itchy. If you wait too long, bacteria will start to form and your hair will smell pretty unpleasant. When this happens, you need to reach for the shampoo.

Thoroughly washing and conditioning your hair ensures it’s free from buildup, and healthy too! You can even throw in a scalp scrub if you’ve decided to go for it! When everything we mentioned above starts to form on your scalp, it can also stop it from growing. Hair grows up and out of the scalp, so if anything gets in its way, it simply won’t grow. Sometimes, the best hair care tips are the simplest ones.

Make Sure You Protect Your Hair

We know that this hair care tip is also one that seems pretty obvious but we stand by it. It’s still one of the best hair care tips we have! Whether it’s making sure you use a heat protectant spray before using your straighteners, or getting a regular trim every few months; there are loads of little things you can do to take some of the pressure off your hair.

At times, whether it’s because of the new year, or a break-up, you may feel as though you need to completely change your hair. This impulsive thought often ends up doing much more harm than good. But there’s no need to do anything drastic, thanks to Flip-In Hair.

Our luxury hair extensions allow you to change your look without inflicting any damage on your hair. As there are no clips, glue or weaving involved, you won’t have to think about harming your tresses. If you’re desperate for long hair to the point you’re not getting a trim, you need Flip-In Hair Straight – The Original. If you need even more body for your hair, opt for Flip-In Hair Straight – Wider. This style allows the hair to fit around the back of your head, over the ears and nearer to your face and it’s available in a selection of colours and lengths.

You can check out all of our products and see what’s possible on our website.

 

How We Can Help Beyond Hair Care Tips

That’s it for the best hair care tips from the Flip-In Hair team! Don’t forget, we can help you to look after your hair whilst still making it possible for you to switch up your style.

Hairstyles in 2022

Hairstyles To Watch Out For In 2022

/in , /by

It’s 2022, which means we have another year of trends to keep on top of! And even if you don’t fancy trying out the latest trending hairstyles in 2022, there’s no time like the new year to refresh your look!

Feeling overwhelmed? The Flip-In Hair team is going to share everything we know about what you should be looking out for in 2022 when it comes to your new ‘do.

 

Hairstyles 2022

Brand New Hairstyles For 2022

 

So, you know what a bob is and you’re familiar with a pixie cut, but have you heard about the bixie cut? Yep, you read that correctly! These two iconic hairstyles aren’t just back and better than ever, they’ve joined forces! We do not doubt that this hybrid ‘90s style is going to be absolutely everywhere in 2022, so why not get ahead of the game?

This is the perfect hairstyle for those who don’t fancy committing to a pixie cut but still want to add some edge to their look with a shorter haircut. If you find yourself growing out your beloved pixie cut, this is a great transitional look to ease yourself into having longer hair again. 

The bixie cut is all about embracing layers and using your hair’s natural texture to your advantage, making it ideal for those with naturally curly or wavy hair. If your hair is on the straighter end of the spectrum, you can make this retro vibe work for you by introducing products like sea salt spray and texturising paste into your routine.

 

Bringing The ‘70s Hairstyles To 2022

 

As you may have already noticed, this year is all about throwbacks and bringing long-forgotten hairstyles back onto the scene. This time, we’re going to take you even further back, all the way to the ‘70s. During this time, long hair with a shorter fringe was what anyone who was anyone would wear. Don’t worry, we’re definitely not suggesting you go for a micro fringe, unless you want to, of course!

To emulate this look for yourself in 2022, opt for a long, slightly layered cut with a fringe that frames your face to add some softness to it. When it comes to your parting, it’s best to wear it in the centre to show off your beautiful, even layers. 

If you have thin hair and you find yourself dreading how longer layers might work for you, you can use Flip-In Hair Lite to give your hair the body it needs to pull off these hairstyles for 2022, without it weighing you down. 

Or maybe you’d rather go for Flip-In Hair Straight if you don’t have thick hair but would still like some more to work with? Whatever you choose, we have something for you, and with no clips, glue, or weaving, it’s easier than ever to switch things up!

 

How We Can Help

 

At Flip-In Hair, we can help you to refresh your hairstyles for 2022 with our product range – it’s not just for people who want to stay on top of trends, you know!
