    Ok, I'm showing my ignorance re the latest craze here, but with these loom bands, do you need to buy anything else to go with it or do kids just make it with the bands please?

    The website shows Frozen loom bands for £1 and others 4 for £1.

    Thanks.

    Its a powder. Not like batiste dry shampoo spray, more like talc which you brush through your hair. I have highlighted hair so it wasn't too bad on mine (and helped to cover my roots a bit!), but prob wouldnt work so well on dark hair.

    - Hold bottle about 1 inch away from scalp and gently squeeze bottle to "puff" refresher into the roots.
    - Use fingers to work product into the roots until it disappears.
    - Please note - the applicator tip is angled and has a hole on one side that dispenses product. When using, make sure the applicator is positioned toward your scalp.
    -Use hair refresher as a fragrance, dry shampoo, and to prolong a blowout
    sounds good ta op!

    The packs usually have a hook tool and the fasteners included. You can either use a loom or your fingers make them on. You would need a loom for complex designs. We don't have a loom, my daughter uses an upside down dolls house chair and works on two of the legs! Have a look on you tube for demos of how to make them.

    Oh Savingmonkey, I'm not making anything, I just wanted to know if I needed to buy anything extra for the kids :D:D. Your daughter is very innovative!

    Its brilliant, I much prefer it to Batiste (and I have dark brown hair, but its jet black atm courtesy of Poundland :D). Great for "day 3" hair ie when washing and styling is too much trouble.

    Today I found some Lotus biscuits (350g) in my local store. They usually come in much smaller packs in Sainsburys so I thought they were a good deal...but according to MySuperMarket.com Asda sells the same packs for £1.29. The good thing is they come in 4 sleeves, which is great if you wait for someone to come round for tea before indulging as it means there's no compulsion to polish the lot off before they go stale. (As if....!).

    I bought a Jane Asher cookery book in the Swansea branch today, called Jane Asher's beautiful baking.
