Yay or Nay: Big Hair

Vogue reckons big hair is the way to go this summer – as modelled by Gemma Ward in one of their shoots. And I don’t just mean hair that is a bit puffed up – this is a full on afro frizz! Just in case you want to copy, to create this look, they twisted hair and then pressed it between straightening irons, then brushed out and backcombed to create a ‘soft frizz’. So is afro hair really the look you’re striving for right now, or is this just a bad hair day in disguise?

YAY!! I LOVE big hair! My hair WANTS to be big and frizzy and "poofy". I am thrilled that big hair is coming back into style because this stick straight hair trend doesn't work for me. I try so hard to straighten my hair, but it never looks quite right. My hair looks best when it's BIG! Can't wait to let me hair do what is really wants to do!!!!

Big hair, yay. Poodle perm frizz, hell no. If my hair looked like Gemma's does in that picture I think I'd stay home for the day. Give the girl some serum!
