Ouch… hard.. to… type…

So we’ve finally done it…yes, the HQ girls have joined a gym! We would do a mini-Mexican wave of joy but as we attended a fun-filled (that’s how the instructor described it anyway) hour of body pump on Wednesday night, we’ve pulled all the muscles in our entire bodies and we can’t really move. So that’s a good start!

If like us you’re joining a gym, vowing to live on carrot sticks and Vitamin water (Sienna Miller’s legs, Sienna Miller’s legs) and opting for cranberry juice minus the vodka, then we’ve got the perfect motivational tools. After all we can’t be the only ones who think the best part about joining a gym is getting the new cute outfit to go with it?! Can we!?

Swimming may be seen as one of the best forms of exercising, but chlorine destroyed hair is not such a good look! So check out this fabulous moisturising hair and body wash product from phyto- a swimming bag must have!

For when you over-do it (like us) you’ll need this in your handbag at ALL times! It’s a great muscle rub from badger balm- trust me, it’s needed!

When you feel hungry or are about to give in to temptation, apply this nifty lip balm from burner balm pronto, it helps you burn calories!

So hopefully in no time we’ll be looking as hot as this:

Trend Alert: Turbans!

There is no other hat style that oozes old Hollywood glamour quite like the Turban. Made famous by the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, Greta Garbo and Joan Collins this layered iconic hat style is certainly a statement accessory and we’re delighted that modern day celebrities are championing the look.

Joan Collins also is a huge fan of the Turban hat.

Today’s style has been updated and is mainly worn with long, flowing locks.

New From South Beach Rocks…

We have been super excited about the brand spanking new jewellery that South Beach Rocks has just launched. This is by far our favourite SBR collection and the lines follow some top trends trends straight from the catwalk, such as the ethic wood trend, the vintage look and the statement piece. We think alot of these items will also make fabulous stocking fillers, especially as they are so reasonably priced, the gorgeous vintage rings are only £3.95! Here are just a few of our faves from the collection:

Some of the HQ girls have already purchased their items to bling up the Christmas party, check out this beauty:

We Love Big Buns!

Have you ever wondered how to achieve a stylish big bun look? No it’s not down to the length of your hair but simply with some bun shapers! Exclusive to HQhair.com these nifty bun shapers come in black or blonde and are only £2.85

They are super easy to use. Just tie your hair into a pony tail, pull your pony tail through the hole to the top and then wrap your hair back around the shaper so the bun resembles a doughnut. Secure the shape with a hair band, you may want to tuck or wrap the extra hair around with kirby grips.
