Timotei Golden Highlights Camomile Shampoo

I only bought this shampoo and conditioner as a last resort. I've wanted highlights for a while, not because that my naturally blonde hair has died away, just to brighten it up. The jealousy contained in my body of my friends and even random strangers, with gorgeous blonde highlights was way too much. So what did I do? I came on ciao of course! DISCOVERING TIMOTEI Sure, I had seen the bottles at my local supermarket, and yes I knew they were for blondes, but after trying sheer blonde by John Frieda, and the disaster of it DARKENING my hair, I wasn't going to try anything else unless I was ... more

Well, its been a while so I thought it was about time I wrote another op! Being a natural dark blonde myself I often wish my hair was a bit lighter naturally. I've died it a lighter blonde in the past (although not really light it must be said!) But re-growth REALLY annoys me. I've even used the lemon stuff you can put on your hair in summer to take advantage of advanced lightening through the sun. This helps but it doesn't help when the UK is plunged into darkness for the rest of the year. What's a girl to do between October and March? Well, ever since Timotei brought out the new "Golden ... more

Shopping is a necessity, whether it is on the internet or in person, and although I have tried Tesco.net I prefer to drive the few miles and walk around the store as you sometimes see bargains, and I love bargains especially the BOGOF variety! Those of you who have read my Timotei Anti-dandruff shampoo review know why I had to use it instead of my normal shampoo, but I quickly put the new bottle of shampoo in the bathroom ready for the next hair wash, and my other bottle of Timotei did not disappoint either. *BOTTLE* Size about 18cm high, with a narrow base in a golden yellow pearlised plastic ... more

Being the cheapskate student type that I am, I'm constanly on the look out for a bargain (well, when it comes to stuff like food and shampoo, anyway - clothes are a completely different matter...). This could go some way to explaining why, a couple of weeks ago, I was to be found skulking around the beauty section of my local Wilkinsons (oh the shame!). On my little clandestine shopping trip (dark glasses and headscarf ahoy), I spotted this little gem of a shampoo and its matching conditioner (which I'm gonna mention in this op...). Now, I've always had a bit of a soft spot for timotei ... more

~*~“In the summertime when the weather gets nice, the suns in the sky and Timotei smells nice”~*~ I arrived back from my summer holiday in Halkadiki (“Mainland Greece” everyone keeps asking and it’s very slightly getting on my nerves) precisely 6 days, 13 hours, 2 minutes and approximately 13 seconds ago. The tans beginning to fade (or goes all scaley), my nails are breaking (as I’m back to doing work) and well I look kind of stupid walking under an umbrella wearing a vest top and sandals… and you’re thinking (as normal) why is our Katecgreen ... more
