Lash Batting:
If eyeing yourself in die mirror and geometry is not your thing, your changes of botching your own browns and lashes is really good. Rather take to the streets of Tooting where you will find numerous eyebrow threading salons competing to offer you the best prices. They are truly professional and use and age-old skill of using cotton twisted and rolled along the skin entwining unwanted hair and removing it. It’s less painful than waxing (anything is) and really precise.
High street prices for this could be £30, but in tooting you will get this for under £5.
Cutting it fine:
Your house-mate might be a Chartered Accountant, but lets face it, she sucks at cutting hair. So don’t risk the embarrassment to save a quick buck. Between Colliers Wood and Tooting Bec stations on the Northern Line you will find thousands of good hair salons competing for price. With a little bit of shopping around, you will soon find one that is made for you. If you are prepared to skip the blowdry, they will also cut you a discount deal.
A close shave:
If it’s bikini, Brazilian or Hollywood you desire, the bad news is that the cheapest option is the painful one. Invest in wax, down something strong, bite down on a hairbrush or the cutting board, ask the help of a friend and rip it. Microwave heated wax or wax trips are really inexpensive and work just fine, but remember to follow up your treatment with some soothing cream. For a few minutes of pain, the results can be – to honest – interestingly bare and bold.
