I’m pretty sure all busy moms would agree that a simple hairstyle is where it’s at. Wash & Go is the way to go.
Unfortunately for me, my hair has never cooperated with the whole “wash and go” concept. Through the years, I’ve learned that the best haircut for my thin, fine hair that balances my triangular face is a layered bob that rises in the back and has a length somewhere between the chin and shoulder, with some sideswept bangs to cover my wide-ish forehead. The problem with this haircut is that it requires blow drying in order to look even remotely put together. I’ve tried simply combing it when wet, or using various hair products for different purposes, in an effort to create a “wash and go” style.
Nothin’ doin’. If I don’t blow dry my hair, it sticks off my head like flimsy pieces of straw, all going in different directions. Not exactly attractive.
Enter the Lilla Rose Flexi Clip. This ingenious little hair accessory can create all kinds of different styles in any kind of hair. Flat, thin hair? Yep. Thick, curly hair? Yep. Long flyaway hair? Yep. Super short hair? Uh… maybe not. Check out their Sizing and Style page to find the right size for you. But if your hair is at least chin length, you can create a lovely hairstyle in minutes with a Flexi Clip… whether or not you had time to blow dry!
Watch this video to see how it’s done:
Lilla Rose Independent Consultant Anjanette Barr was kind enough to send me a Flexi Clip so I could test it on my hair. The Extra-Small size was perfect for my super fine, super thin hair – I can stick it all up in a “tails up” style, or I can pin half of it back like a barrette. I also can use it at the nape of my neck for a low ponytail. No matter what, it does a great job of styling my hair whether or not I’ve had the time for a blow drying session that day. And, uh, whether or not I had time to wash it that day. Ahem.
And although I love these amazing little Flexi Clips, Lilla Rose has a lot more to offer. They have a whole line of beautiful hair and other accessories: Hair Sticks, Bobby Pins, Lanyards, Headbands, and more!
Anjanette is graciously offering one of my readers the chance to win the Lilla Rose product of their choosing (up to $16 value)! Simply follow the instructions in the Rafflecopter below.

Braids or a single side braid.
Ha…what style?
I always just curl my hair under a little. It would be great to have one of these!
Pony tail.
I don’t usually style my hair. I just dry it (sometimes) and straighten it (sometimes). I’d love to have one of these to clip it back with.
Hairstyle? Um… so… does a plain ol’ ponytail count?
My that certainly is beautiful! My hair has gotten thinner as I get older, but it is pretty long. I usually put the front in a “bump” and the back in a bun. Keeps it all neat and tidy, but still maybe looks like I made an effort!? Ha
Pulled back with a hair clip
Either straight or soft curls, sometimes half up, rarely in a ponytail.
Usually pulled back with a clip or up.
My hair is too short and curly to do much with! But I would love to win for my daughter!
Down and curly in the morning. Up in a ponytail afternoon and evening.
Hair penned up with a pencil
in a ponytail or top knot. Me and Hair have never gotten along.
In a pony tail or braid
I usually just put it up in a claw clip.
Thanks for the giveaway! =)
Pony or a hair clip… occasionally down for dh.
Depends on what you mean by “style” your hair. My hair is to the small of my back so I always do it. But dates and church functions are about the only time it gets special attention.
french twist thanks
I usually keep it half-up or in a ponytail.
Many times I just leave it down, but my hair is getting so long that at home I use a clip.
Ponytail all the way! Too bad it damages the hair near the base of my neck…
In a bun of a ponytail. I dont like it being all over my face.
When will the winner be announced?
