Daily Steal

The daily steal: Rosy hair pins, $16

Photography by Nettika Berthelot

I love vanilla-flavoured cake with butter-cream frosting and pastel-coloured roses made from icing. Sadly, my thighs don’t agree. Meeting me half way are Prismera’s sweet baby pink and butter yellow rose hair clips ($16 each, prismeradesign.com).

While the baby buds don’t actually taste so great (yes, I licked one), they do however, hold my hair back nicely and are easy to style. With the pink one tucked in on one side, and minus the guillotine, I’m channeling Marie Antoinette.

The daily steal: Hair colour fix, $17

Call me Britney because, I had to Color Oops ($17, at drugstores) my hair when I DIY-dyed without reading the instructions, again. At midnight. On a Saturday. When my hair salon was closed. For two whole days. But, after a quick sprint to the drugstore and 35 minutes of processing and washing later (with nary a trace of ammonia or bleach peroxide to be afraid of) the unwanted hue was gone. I’m back to my natural blonde, but I’m still calling Susan at TAZ Hair Co. I need my colour fix.
