QUICK TWIST


~  Scunci Quick Twist  ~

-

I recently filmed a romantic boho inspired hairstyle using this which you can view below...

This is not just for kids! I am in my 30's and love using this! I remember trying to twist my hair in all sorts of different ways as a kid and in high school. Looking up to my big sister who always seemed to be able to create this kind of hair style with ease. I could never master it and eventually gave up.

Fast forward many years later and now I can finally have as many twists as my heart desires whenever I want in literally seconds! It is soooo easy to use and so quick to create PERFECT looking twists!


You need to purchase the batteries separately, and then you're good to begin. Your hair just locks into place in two sections on top of the device. It holds onto your hair nice and tight without pulling or feeling too tight. Then with just the push of a button the Scunci Quick Twist begins to twist your hair in about 3 seconds and then you just push the other button and it then twists the two strands of twisted hair neatly together. Wa-la! Done in 5 seconds! Ah I love this thing! :) 

The tool also comes complete with hair accessories including ribbon, lace, bobby pins and clear hair elastics. Very handy and a great little bonus!


Highly recommend if you want to try something new that is quick, easy and a bit fun!
The Scunci Quick Twist (RRP $29.95) plus a huge variety of other Scunci products and accessories
 can be purchased in Australia from Priceline, Big W, Coles, Target & Toys R' Us!

BRUSHOLOGY


~  SCUNCI  ~

Brushology Hair Brushes!

PREPARE

Dry Shampoo Brush $14.95
I only tend to wash my every 2-3 days for two reasons. One - I can get away with it, so why not?
Two - Washing my long, thick hair takes so much time, I just don't have. So in saying that, this 
nifty little Dry Shampoo Brush is brilliant as it really helps to blend in all that dry shampoo I tend
to use on a daily basis. All but one of my dry shampoo's that I currently have in rotation come out as
white and powdery which if not worked in well can give my hair a grey tint. Not what you want!

Vent Brush $9.95
I tend to blow dry my hair about once a week or so after washing and this new Vent Brush has been
the perfect companion! Because there are gaps between the bristles it allows the hot hair through the
brush as I am blow drying in turn speeding up my drying time. The end of the bristles are also
ceramic and also get hot and aiding in the lengthy straightening process. I found this so easy to use,
my hair just glided through the brush and my was smooth and ready to tackle with my straightener in
no time!

Wet Hair Detangling Brush $12.95
This giant paddle brush has been cleverly designed with super gentle bristles to limit the damage 
when bushing wet hair. I like to first use the Scunci Detangling Comb and follow through using this
one. The large size of the brush makes it very quick to use and I am done in about ten seconds! It
doesn't snag or pull at my hair and I love the way it feels on my scalp. 

Detangling Comb $5.95
I believe a wide tooth comb is a must for every girl! I use this both in and out of the shower.
I find using this when using a hair treatment or even just when I condition my hair it helps
distribute the product nice and even whilst making my hair smooth and knot free. I then use it again
once I am out of the shower on my wet hair to make sure my hair is completely tangle free and ready
to style for bed or for the day ahead!

STYLE

Straightening Brush $15.95
This is probably the most unique kind of hair brush I have ever seen or used. You can use it like a
regular hair brush or as it is designed with a double brush head & ceramic coated plates you can use
it whilst both blow drying and straightening to cut down the time it takes for both tasks, especially
if you have long hair or unruly curls! If like me you suffer from the frizz effect, this brush will sort it
all out with it's ionic infused boar bristles.

XLarge Volume Brush $14.95
If volume and large waves are what you're craving then this is the brush of all brushes! 
With it's ionic pins and gentle bristles, this brush when used together with your hair dryer
(I recommend checking out my fav - The Pink Evoke VS Sassoon Dryer!) will briskly style your hair
into voluminous Victoria's Secret waves with body and height as it retain the heat in the brush as you
style. Pretty handy!

Medium Volume Brush $12.95
Very similar to the XLarge Volume Brush, this medium size thermal ceramic barrel heats up as you
use your hair dryer giving you nice volume and life to your hair whilst setting it as you go through
each section of hair. This is my go-to for everyday hair as it gives a lovely natural 'just got out of bed
sexy hair' look whist still looking like you have still made some kind of effort by taming any frizz or
fly aways which are my pet hate!

Cushion Brush $12.95
This is the best brush to use the day after washing your hair when your hair is super clean and may
not be playing nice and sitting right. I find this helps styling my hair on those days as it is designed
to bring down some of the natural oils through the hair from the scalp in turn making squeeky clean 
hair more manageable. Not recommended on greasy hair unless you want to accentuate that kind of 
over all slick back look. Each to their own!

FINISH

Paddle Brush $14.95
For those of you who have long, thick hair like me then this one is for you! Nobody has time to
spend brushing their hair all day (At least no one I know!) and if you want to keep it long then you
still need to find a way to take care of it. This large paddle brush makes life easier by not only being
large enough to get the job done quick. It also has ionic and ceramic coated pins which help tame the
frizz, smooth down the hair and also adds shine which is something I have really noticed a difference
with when using this brush. I like shiny, healthy looking hair!

Long Hair & Hair Extension Brush $14.95
Since using my Irresistible Me hair extensions and finding this brush, I have really enjoyed having a
special brush just to help take better care of my set. Hair extensions are difficult to store without 
getting tangled easily and having this brush has been great! Right before I apply each piece I just run
this brush of them and it makes all the difference! Makes them look like new again. 

Thick & Wavy Hair Brush $14.95
I guess it really comes down to hair type, style preference and personal taste when it comes to some
of these brushes. There are a few others in this range which do pretty much the same as this one,
however this particular brush has slightly longer bristles which does make it nice and easy when 
brushing through thick hair. (Speaking from experience!) :)

Backcombing Brush $7.95
Ever since trying out the Scunci Quiff Comb I have not been the best at back combing to create the
same effect. Having a proper backcombing brush just makes it so much easier and faster to create the
teased effect and I actually found it really easy to brush out once I was done. Backcombing with this
brush didn't create a huge knotted mess as I was able to simply comb through it once I was done with
the style. The hair held really well and parting my hair in difference ways with the tip of the brush 
end make for some lovely neat hair styles lately as well. 

RETOUCH

Mini Round Brush $7.95
I love these mini Retouch brushes as they are smaller than the others in the Brushology range and are
perfect handbag and travel size. I tend to pack both this and the Mini Styling Brush with me when I 
travel as they are just a great little pair. Keeps my hair in place and looking neat. 

Mini Styling Brush $7.95
This is great for on the go touch ups. I love that it is ceramic so even when I am out I can keep my 
hair in check. Even after blow drying, straightening, dry shampooing & hair spraying, my hair still
finds a way to misbehave throughout the day, so having one of these styling brushes with me at all
times is a must!

HAIR ACCESSORIES

SPORTY SUN VISOR HEADWRAP!

(From their 'Everday & Active' range!)


I never in a million years thought this kind of visor would suit me at all. I have struggled many years
for a decent hat that one, stays on my head and two doesn't make me look weird!
So I was pleasantly suprised that this one actually turned out looking pretty darn great!
The fabric is flexible and moulds onto my head so there is no way it is going to come flying off which is perfect for windy days at the beach or on a boat and the whole design, colours and size
fit me perfectly!

The design I have is the Black & White Geo and it really suits my style and matches just about anything I pair it with. It also gives amazing sun protection and shade to my face with the firm brim
 which I really important to me when outdoors in the unforgiving QLD sun!

My new favourite hat which has been made so well as the fabric hasn't freyed, faded or overstretched.


Bargain price of only (RRP $14.95) for a hat and one I highly recommend for year round protection and style!
Also available in the super funky 'Purple Space Dye' print!

QUIFF COMB


~   S  C  U  N  C  I   ~

Quiff Comb

Hair Style!


I'll admit, this is not a hair trend I have ever been a big fan of nor ever even tried.
But when something a little different lands in front of you, you just gotta give it a go, you only
live once and life is too short for the same old boring hair everyday, so I gave the Quiff Comb
a chance and here is the result. (See pic below!)

Using this hair tool and creating this hair style was actually a whole lot easier and quicker than
I had thought it was going to be! All I did was take a few inches of hair from the top section
as if I were to create a half up half down style and simply placed the Quiff Comb underneath and secured the hair with a
Scunci hair elastic into a messy little knot instead of pinning back with the bobby pins supplied.

Upon inspection of the result as I looked into the mirror I was quite surprised at how much I
actually really loved the finished look! It didn't look as weird as I'd first thought it might and since it was so quick and easy to use as you
save so much time and damage by not having to tease any part of your hair, this would
 be a great hair accessory to turn to when I want or need to create something in a hurry
but don't want to look boring!

This is such a versatile hair tool, you could get really creative and make lots of different hair styles!
I have seen just about every single celebrity try this look at some time or another for some extra
volume and height and it so so comfortable to wear as it is so light so there is no 'top heavy' feeling.

Available in both brunette & blonde varieties!
RRP: $9.95

How adorable are these cute and colourful little flower hair clips for little girls?
Here I share with you my baby girl modelling them in her plated 'do'. :)

I love these because not only do they match her favourite rainbow dress,

and they don't snag or scratch at her delicate little scalp as I am putting them in or
taking them out at the end of a busy day.

The variety of colours mean no matter what colour she insists on wearing that day
I am likely to easily be able to find a clip to match.

This 6 pack is only going to set you back a teeny tiny RRP $7.95!

SCALLOPED HEADBAND



Hi everyone! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Today I bring you a bit of a hair styling post featuring Scunci's
Scalloped Headband in black. 

RRP: $5.95

I really love this style because it is a strong and firm plastic.
It isn't flimsy, nor does it feel as though it will snap the minute my
3 year old gets hold of it!

It's the perfect grab and go hair accessory that sweeps all your hair
out of the way, including those annoying flay aways with its cleverly
designed scalloped curves.

Available in both black (pictured) and tortoise!

SCUNCI

~ New Scunci Goodies! ~




Everyday & Active 6 Pack Knotted Ponytailers

I love this bright, fun array of happy colours!
I have used this style of hair tie before and at first was skeptical if they'd
even hold my hair up, but they're actually really flexible and super strong!
I love that these are gentle on your hair and so comfortable to wear. 

Everyday & Active No Damage Reflective Hair Ties

These are the perfect combination because not only do you get a generous
32 hair ties (because we all know they try to be like bobby pins & disappear!)
but they are also snag and damage free with no annoying metals in them.
I like them because they are thick so they don't stretch or snap like thinner
elastics always do, especially with thick hair, these are so strong and hold
my hair firmly in place all day. What's different about this cool new active
range are the light reflecting patterns which are the white bits in the hair tie
shown above. They look like the reflects on a bike light or guide post you see
along a road. Very cool especially worn in the sun or at night! 

Expandable & No Slip Grip Headbands

I am so excited to wear these as I don't have a lot of brown or black hair
accessories.  I particularly am interested in the expandable
leopard print ones as the design of them is quite unique.
They can even fold up to fit into your pocket! Perfect for travelling
and hair emergencies! 

Conair Fog Free Shower Mirror

I have never had a mirror in the shower before, so this will be interesting! 
I'm not sure what I'll use it for... perhaps to apply a face mask or make sure I don't
miss a spot when washing my face or hair? I'm sure it will come in handy
none the less! It is fog free, so that is brilliant. It also has 3 strong, large
suction cups to firmly secure it in place. I think the handy little soap/razor
holder at the bottom is a clever little extra. :)

Watch for future hair styles and reviews with all of the above!

:)

Do you a shower mirror? If so, what do you use it for?

SCUNCI UPDO CLIP

Scunci

~ Ultimate Updo Clip ~



Simple Step-By-Step Guide! 
____________________________




#1
_______
You can create this look on either the left
or right side of your head or even in the
centre. Low or high, this look works well
whichever way you choose.

#2
_______
I have decided on a low bun on the left
side. Begin a loose, messy plait. The messier
and less care you take with this step will give you a softer
more textured effect.

#3
______
Wrap the plait around itself to create the
bun. This can be as loose or tight as you
like. Each way will result in a totally
different look. Both will work.

#4
______
Next hold your bun in place with your
fingers. Once you've decided where
you want to place the clip get your
Ultimate Updo Clip ready!

#5
______
I found the best place to insert the clip
is where the left over loose hair are from the
end of the plait.

#6
______
This Ultimate Updo Clip is stronger than it looks!
It will firmly hold your hair in place with just
the small bit at the top showing which
almost seems invisible on my dark hair anyway.


The Finished Look!
