First lobes in your 20s? This lovely came in for his first ever ear piercings and we love appointments like this. No big reason needed, no “should I have done this years ago?”... he fancied getting it done, so he did.

There is no age you are supposed to have your first lobes by. Sometimes you just get to the point where you think, right, I want them now.

If your hair has been through bleach, colour changes, heat styling and a few “it’ll be fine” moments. The Manic Panic mermaid hair repair mask is made for coloured hair that needs a bit of help feeling soft, smooth and less frazzled.

Pop it onto damp hair, leave it for around 10 minutes, rinse it out, and let it do its thing. It’s vegan, cruelty-free (PETA approved), fragrance-free and pH-balanced, so it’s a good one to keep around if you love changing your colour but don’t love the dry ends that sometimes come with it.

Available online and in store.
