    You just reminded me...If anyones local does not have reduced items left, the silver can of john freida frizz ease moisture blocking hairspray in the smaller size tin is £2.44, so 44p to pay-no beeps. Good basket filler :)

    Truth be told I'll be buying the Mail on Sunday for the £5 off a £25 spend on Tesco clothing ;)
    Me too. The free Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music CD swung it for me :)

    Think I might get that newspaper instead then as I don't really want to spend another £30 in Boots.
    Brian Ferry and Roxy Music! Now you are talking.
    Thanks for posting that GL :)

    I don't use hairspray its a little old fashioned and clogs up the straighteners,
    but it might help someone else who does, do use the Frizz Ease Serum which is great,
    different strokes for different folks. :)
    Don't think the mini 'Serums' work with the hair care voucher any more.

    Neither do I, but from what I understand from my mum who has used it, it is a very light spray, but she uses as it stops moisture making your straightened hair go frizzy in humidity and does not leave your hair stiff or cause build up.

    How can it clog the straighteners :confused: if it is used after styling to 'set' the hair and then do the fine modern hairsprays not brush out more or less so there is very little dry product left on the hair, should you straighten inbetween washes? I'm confused :D

    There was about 20 green ones and 20 blue ones. So go get some if you want them. On the clearance shelf near where the weighing scales are. They also had AUSSIE HAIR care items with clearance labels on! *** Also, if anyone was thinking of getting the MALTESERS 125g from WHITE ROSE CENTRE, LEEDS DONT! The expiry date is 11 Jan 2009. Was about to start piggin' out on mine and Mom pointed out that they were like a year old. Good God, I could have expired! Also, if you are buying them or anything else anywhere, just check the date of expiry first. ***

    Good spot mimi, i noticed someone else had mentioned they'd got Maltesers that were out of date too.

    I'd say it would depend on how curly your hair is as to whether you straighten in between washes. For some people even when they straighten, if their hair is extremely curly they might have to re-do it again inbetween washes so if they have hairspray on it then it would clog up the straighteners. Everyone's hair is different!

    I recently had to buy new straighteners as I had used a heat protection spray that was not my usual non-clogging product and the coating on the plates of the straighteners bubbled up and eventually peeled off!!! Luckily I managed to replace them with the same ones in the Boots sale.
    HTH.
