  3. Ruby you are gorgeous! look at all these beautiful up dos. I have total hair envy right now. LOL. I showed your blog to my mom and she said that you could totally be her daughter. She said that you look a lot like me and my sister. I just thought you should know.

  8. Your hairstyles are beautiful! I have a hard time seeing the back of my hair when I do updo's. Your's looks perfect. I've got to ask... what's your trick?

    1. Thanks! My trick is to use two mirrors simultaneously - I have a mirrored cupboard door at hair height in my bathroom, and I prop up a long mirror on the radiator next to it. If I stand inbetween the two and angle the cupboard door correctly, I can very easily see the back of my head!

      I survived for years squinting into a hand mirror though ;)

    1. Thanks Hollie! My Mum never did my hair to my liking when I was little, so I soon took matters into my own hands. Unfortunately I began with scissors (aged 8). It was not pretty - I had a row of uneven curls framing my face until I was 13! I'm much better at cutting hair now, and I also braid. So, to answer your question, practise and perseverance :)

  15. You have THE best hair! I was loving the toadstools you had the other day (on Instagram), I want Toadstools in my hair. :-) Thank you so much for my beautiful post! It was such a lovely surprise and the little Geisha post card is just perfect. You are so thoughtful, thank you.
    I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, lots of love to you. xxx

    1. You're very welcome! The Geisha lady reminded me a little of you, so it seemed fitting that you should become acquainted ;)

      The toadstools are from Party Party in Dalston, which is my favourite place for random bits to wedge into my hair!
