A SWEAR-BY BEAUTY TIP
Don’t wear makeup every day
A SWEAR-BY HAIR TIP
Cut in an undercut if you have thick hair (changed my life)
A SMALL JOY
Having an hour to myself when my baby goes down for a nap
HAIR WASH ROUTINE
I’m a bath person, so I like to wash my hair, then leave in conditioner or a mask for 15+ minutes while I relax in the bath
WHY DIZZIAK
Just perfect for my thick hair
GREAT HAIR MEMORY
I cut my own hair Britney-style for a shoot with Infringe magazine and it was amazing
NIGHTMARE HAIR STORY
I shot a campaign for a very reputable hair client (won't name names), and they bleached and burnt all my hair off, then refused to take responsibility Some of my hair was literally 1cm long—it took me two years to grow it back fully
FAVOURITE WAY TO STAY ACTIVE
