Flipping through all the September issues, it’s all about the updo, chiconomistas.  And we couldn’t be happier because of the beauty sleep benefits (i.e. not having to get up early in the morning to fuss over our hair).  While updos can take time, we got the hair accessories, a hairpin and linziclip, that’ll make doing a french twist a sinch.

Goody Simple Styles Modern Updo Pin for hair, £4.99 at ASDA stores nationwide, is the hot hair accessory that has many-pin power in one and puts the do-able in updos. (Peek at our post on the Updo Pin’s sister, the Spin Pin, to bun it like a pro.) Before you attempt a french twist with this pin in the morning, we suggest playing around with it when you have more time. Check out this clip on the Updo Pin that’ll have you mastering the twist in no time.  To updo your hair at a lesser cost, clip it with the Pearlised Chocolate Maxi Linziclip from Glitz4Girlz, £2.99.  With its hidden springs, it secures your hairstyle.
