Create Waves With TONI & GUY Fluid Metal Styler + Giveaway!
I just love all things pretty and glittery and shiny, so obviously I was going to fall in love with the new Toni & Guy Fluid Metal Styler. Move over boring old straighteners, you have been replaced with this awesome iridescent titanium beauty. Oh and guess what, if you carry on reading, you can find out how to win your very own set.
I find a lot of straighteners can catch and drag along my hair, which is never great when you are using hot appliances, but these ones are exactly as they are named, extremely fluid and literally glide through my hair with ultimate ease. Did I mention just how pretty they are??
To create wavy hair, I like to fully curl my hair first, using the classic technique of taking small sections at a time, and holding each piece of hair the opposite way to that of the direction you will move the straighteners. Think of the way you would curl a piece of ribbon, and apply this to the way in which you would curl your hair. It takes a bit of practice, but I promise the Fluid Metal Styler is fool proof.
When I have more time I promise to film a video on this…
Once I am happy with the curls, to make it wavy I simply took a flat paddle brush through my hair from root to tip – very gently as to not disturb the hair too much or to allow it to go frizzy.
You will be left with a soft, tousled wave like in the images below!
I just love how versatile this tool is and I am extremely impressed with how easily it curled my hair. You also get a gorgeous sequined heat protectant pouch to store them in along with a cute quilted heat resistant mat.
Now this would make a fantastic Christmas present – it is currently £44.99 instead of £90.00 on the Superdrug website. However, if you want to be in with the chance of WINNING your very own set then enter the Rafflecopter giveaway below!
I will announce the winner over on my Twitter next week. Good luck everyone!
*And no I was not paid to host this giveaway, I just adore TONI & GUY 🙂

Those plates on the straighteners are just gorgeous, and I have major hair envy. My Christmas party routine would be perfect if I could paint my nails and make them look flawless, whilst pampering myself and making myself go from a 2 to a solid 5 and just generally enjoying the fact I’m spending some TLC on myself!

Oh wow these are so so pretty! Your hair looks amazing, I can never curl my hair that well with curlers. My Christmas routine would be great if my hair liked to stay as it is and not go flat as a pancake!

This is amazing! I love your curls, they are so natural looking! I sooo need a new pair of straighteners, mine have almost died on me twice already hahaha
My beauty routine for xmas includes a bath to relax, doing my nails and my hair (just like yours, except my hair is looooong so it would take me an hour or so) and getting dressed in a gorgeous dress (asos anyone?) 🙂

I loooove your hair in those pic so much…I wanted to try this way of curling my hair for so long 😉
I hope it would look as good on my super long hair 😉
Most important thing for me in my pamper/ beauty routine around christmas is that it is super relaxed and completely stress free 😉 I love a good bubble bath with a face mask and afterwards washing my hair and treat it also with a good nourishing mask so that it is extra pretty 😉
of cause an amazing festive make up and never forget the red lip on christmas and I love my hair curly on christmas 😉 always looks pretty and girly 😉
Just treating myself a lot because there is never enough time in the rest of the year =D

Plenty of time and a glass of red wine. Probably a few christmassy songs playing, a few cinnamon or winter berry scented candles glowing in the background. I think with Christmas, it’s the renowned time of indulgence, so it’s the time to go all out! x

I don’t cope with crowds at parties very well so don’t go to too many parties (sorry not a pity post), but a hot bath, some lovely smellies, a small glass of wine whilst in the bath, some rock music (always gets me in the party mood – well as much as I can) and then sparkly jewellery and the chance to dress up for a change. 🙂

Nice soak in bubble bath. Then music on whilst glamming up! Oh and of course a glass of bubbly to get me in the party mood 😉
Natalie lee

Nancy Bradford
Lots of time and money spent letting someone else work their magic at the salon.
Adam Berger
My other half says it is getting the right primer and then spending less time getting ready and more time with the kids.
Mine is similar as it takes long.
Monika Suchonska
Perfect would be a xmas dinner made by someone else and consumed under a palm tree somewhere hot.
Heather Crowe
Relaxing bath followed by a pamper, blow dry and hair style, war paint followed by nail polish, toes too!
Rebecca Hodson
Making sure that I’ve been to the hairdresser the previous week for a really good quality cut, so that it’s easy to get my hair washed & dried on the day. I don’t use foundation, so make-up is nice & quick. Dress goes on last 😀
Julie Jones
Hair cut the day before, manicure on the morning before sorting clothes out for the evening. Prosecco while doing make up with some in the mood party tunes playing. Just make the most of life!
Mark Turner
Hair cut, bath, shave and style
Kelly E Hirst
Prepare everything the day before so you aren’t running around trying to find bits & pieces – it helps to paint nails/toes in advance too. Put some music on whilst you get ready to lift your mood & the. Make sure the lighting is just right before you start – use YouTube videos if you have time to give yourself a different look
Kelly Ellen Hirst
Zoe Somerfield
Having my hair done at a salon, having nails and face done at beauticians.

Your hair looks fab by the way!

I need one hour to get ready including shower.
Diane Jackson
Ideally, a whole pamper day and makeover. But in reality, probably showered and ready within the hour whilst giving the kids their tea and getting them ready for bed lol.
shirlz51
the ideal would be hair,make-up and manicure/pedicure all professionally done and a designer little black dress.Being realistic would probably mean getting a friend to apply your make up carefully,while you relax
Gemma Holland
I love getting ready with my friends as it’s nice to have them around to help with hair & make up
Amy McLellan
Having the whole day to be able to get ready!
