College Prep- WARNING THIS IS A LALALALALONG POST!

Ok so if you've read my info you'll see that as a career i want to do hairdressing. Last year i applied for the introduction to hairdressing and got knocked back for applying too late so that was a whole year wasted i suppose it gave me more time with the baby though so its not so bad. Anyway i applied again this year like really early in march or something. And got invited for an interview in june/july there were soooo many people there! Apparently 63 people had been invited for the interview process and only 18 places were available.. Eek!! (safe to say i pooed my pants when i heard that)
The first stage of the interview was a skills test wich was to put rollers in a manicans hair. I rocked it btw :D i got 1s in all the areas that gave me the boost i needed. :)
Then stage 2 was a written part wich was similar to filling out a job application i pretty much filled the box for every question and spilled over on some. So that went pretty well too.
Finally stage three was The Interview, It took forever for the tutors to get through so many applicants but 3rd to last i was interviewed. We talked about why i wanted to do hairdressing, if there was anyone who was pushing me towards it, what i can bring to the college etc just like a job interview but for college. I basically just said ive always had an interest in hairdressing i want to go on to own my own chain of salons and my own products. Ive applied before and will keep applying until im accepted and that im mainly doing it because its my dream but also so i can give my children the life i want to and im not going to sit around and wait for someone to hand it to me.
So that was pretty much the interview proccess done and then it was just a case of waiting to see if i got in. I was waiting for a couple of weeks and just thought i havnt got it there were so many applicants ive got no chance... A letter came from the college saying that they would like to offer me a place and i literally started jumping and singing mummys goin to coll-ege mummys goin to coll-ege na na na na Hay! Then connor joined in and it was a joyus moment to say the least!! :)
The next step was to reply to say if i accepted the place or not. So i signed in all the right places and hand delivered it so i knew it wouldnt get lost in the post. I didnt hear anything for a while and started to worry it was lost in the college but a quick phone call to the college set me straight. shortly after i recieved a letter for my induction date for september and the information to buy my kit and uniform. The kit costs around £113  & the uniform £44. Thats alot of money in my book but as my sister said its an investment in my future so i bought my kit wich will be delivered to the college and some extra clips and a brush set.



Cause theyre pink!! :D i also got myself some shoes from asda and have yet to buy my uniform but should be able to order that this week. I am soooooooo freaking excited the first step into my dreams has begun!!

Heres a picture of my brushes, clips and shoes will be sure to update when i get my hands on that kit and uniform :D eeeeeek :)



Have you started any prep for college or a new job?

Tell me about it in the comments id love to hear whats going on in your new academic year :)

Im Back hair mask 'n' all.

Ok, so by the title your probably a bit confused right? Well i'm back online!! Laptop at the ready for some major blogging :D YAY!! i tryed to blog on my phone but the app just totally hated it so i was just like dammit janet i need a laptop again. So i bit the bullet and here i am on my swanky new keys tap tappin' away to y'all :P and the hair mask comes in at ive just put a hair mask on... i'm having some major dry damaged hair issues after bleaching my hair numerous times, at home, in a short amount of time. (not clever. i know :/ ) sooooo... i am currently penetrating my hair with a home made mask. i used

3tbsp Olive Oil
1tbsp Honey
1 Raw Egg


(pictures from google)


Mixed it all up and literally slapped it all ovear my hair i then went on to coat the ends of my hair in yet more olive oil. Then heated it with a hairdryer and wrapped a towel round my head... so while im waiting for some glossy locks im writing this so you can all share this brand new experience with me YAY :) i hope it works it should do. The reasons i chose the three ingredients i did is because of their benefits for example:

Olive Oil- moisturizes
Egg- protien (made from the same protien hair is made from)
Honey - Locks in moisture

This worked really well. a bit messy but definatly worth it! :) Let me know what you thought.

Hair Care - Lee Stafford

Lee Stafford- Hair that never grows past a certain legnth treatment. 200ml

As with all Lee Stafford products, the smell is absoloutley to die for its fresh and clean with a real salon smell to it. It makes your hair smell great for days. Ive been using this product for over a month now and i use it 1 to 2 times a week.

I cant say if its made any difference to the legnth of my hair just yet but the condotion is 100% better wich in turn has made the need for cutting less regular. Its fast working in 5 minutes and easy to apply. I usually apply it between shampoo and conditioner while im exfoliating the rest of my body. Its available in Boots and i would definatly recommend this if your trying to condition your hair or even if you just want your hair to smell great. I will be repurchasing this again and have already recieved a tub for christmas YAY!! :D

Lee Stafford- Bleach Blondes Shampoo & Conditioner. With pro-blonde complex for bleached hair.
Again as with all Lee Stafford this smells FITT!! The smell stays for days and it's so fresh & clean i love it!
It says on the front of the bottles/tubes that these lightly tone, refresh and restore your hair. I completly agree!! The purple shampoo gently tones and eliminates yellow tones and brightens blonde shades & the conditoner restores to make natural healthy feeling hair.

There is not one bad thing i can say about these and i will continue to repurchase these as long as i am blonde :) 5*****s AMAZING!

I've loved these 3 products and look forward to trying more from Lee Stafford. Next up is the Poker Straight Flat Iron Protection Shine Mist. I'll let you know how it goes :D

Is there any Lee Stafford products you have tried and loved!?
