Sonia 33: “I like to leave my hair to dry naturally”

Your look? I definitely wouldn’t describe myself as fashionable. I just tend to buy clothes as and when I need them, to replace old ones. But I don’t just grab the first thing I see either, it has to be practical. But this doesn’t mean I don’t go for something more extravagant from time to time! Like my luxury handbag, which I got for my birthday.


Your hairstyle? Quick and easy. Unless someone held a knife to my throat I could never bring myself to cut my long hair, but I don’t want to have to spend a lot of time styling it. So I tend to leave it to dry naturally and don’t really bother with any particular hairstyles. I wear it down, in a braid or tied up in a ponytail. The only thing I’m particular about is looking after my ends. I hydrate them regularly using a hair mask and visit my hairdresser every 3 months to get them cut.


Your look today? Probably the hairstyle I wear the most: hair down! And it couldn’t be easier to create this tousled effect. I wash my hair and, while it’s still wet, I turn my head upside down and apply a small amount of styling mousse, distributing it evenly throughout. This spruces up my waves and gives them more structure! Then I leave my hair to dry on its own for an even more natural result. If I have to go out, I use a hair dryer with a diffuser to avoid softening my waves.
