Hiya!

I just thought I would share something nice!

I have struggled to hold a comb or brush for over a year, and have just made do with what I could do!

I was in certain shop, that I suppose I shouldn't mention, but I just happen to get my meds there too!!! I came across a new range of hair styling tools. I bought a comb and a brush, both of which have big gel handles - its just comfy to hold and light too.

I suppose I just want to feel a bit feminine again and I miss brushing my hair, and so have found myself 'tidying' my do up and smiling!

goodyhair.co.uk

I hope you find this useful!

Hi Pen, good for you, it's nice to hear a good news story.

My solution was to get my hair cut really short as I struggled with a brush and hairdryer, It's great now, a funky style which just needs blasted with a hairdryer, waxed and I'm done. Great.

Good luck xx

I am so glad you have found a style to suit you!

My hair is fine and long and with all the meds, just sort of hangs! I have found a new hairdresser who has been wonderful, but sometimes I just have to let it be wild! Atleast now I can brush it!

Keep smiling x
