When I first heard about the Goody Simple Styles updo kit, I was excited to try it because any help in creating a secure twist or bun is a blessing. The Simple Styles kit includes the Modern Updo Pin, Spin Pins, Volume Boost Comb, and Pony Pouf Clip. Also, included is a storage pouch and style guide. The kit I used is for dark hair.
The Goody Simple Styles updo kit
The Modern Updo using the Modern Updo Pin
Since I have thick, shoulder-length hair, I was curious to see if the Modern Updo Pin would keep this twist secure, and happily, it did.
The Soft Spin using the Spin Pins
The Spin Pins are like screws for your bun. My hair is a little too short and layered for these to work properly, but the pins will be great when my hair is a little longer.
The Pony Boost using the Volume Boost Comb
I did not notice much of a boost with the Volume Boost Comb, but my ponytail did feel more secure and that is always a good thing.
The Half-up Pony Pouf using the Pony Pouf Clip
My hair is too thick to use the Pony Pouf Clip for securing a ponytail, but this clip was great for the half-up ponytail.
Overall, my favorites were the Modern Updo Pin and the Pony Pouf Clip. If you would like to try the Goody Simple Styles updo kit, I am a giving away one kit for light hair.

Hi! I posted below you on the SITS Girl challenge on improving a blog. I wish that would have been around when I had long hair. I have fine, thick hair and I always had problems keeping it in an up-do. I have a chin-length bob now, but if I grow my hair out again, I will keep this kit in mind.
ReplyDeleteThe hairstyles look cute! I'd love to try the clips.

These sound neat and I've been wondering if they work! Thanks for the photos - good demo to see how they look on a "real" person! :)

I have the Spin Pins! I love them because they keep my hair up without having to use an ugly claw but my hair never stays up completely. I'm not sure if I'm not twisting the hair enough or circling it enough or my hair isn't thick enough or what. Oh well.

That looks so fun! Was it hard though? I have shorter hair, I gave up on long hair after having my 2nd son, but my sister has long blonde hair and this would be perfect for her. She actually cares about and does her hair.

OH I would love that! I bought some spin pins but I have 3 daughters and they are always stealing them from me. Would love to try the other things too!
ReplyDeleteGlenda_mm72@yahoo.com
That looks so cool! And my kid just cut her hair short, so I'd be able to keep it without guilt. :-)
