Flying By The Sun - Frieda Morrison

Advantages: Loads!
Disadvantages: None!

I had a foot of it cut off but this made my hair a rather dull blonde as it was mainly the ends that were a nice blonde.

It was summer at the time so I decided to give it a go, put some in my hair, and sat in the warmth of the sun - this product can also be used under the heat of a hairdryer, so its great for blonde hair all year round.
