Flexi8 Flexible Hair Barrette : A New *Top Pick* {Giveaway}

I love my new Flexi8 as much as the Bounce dryer bar which was a Quick Tip Tuesday a few weeks ago. Why the comparison between two seemingly opposite products? Because they are without a doubt my new favorite things right now…one makes life easier for this busy working mom, and the other makes me look a bit less like a busy working mom. Because I have long, thick hair, the options for putting it up normally consist of a ponytail holder (my usual choice) or a “claw” clip which is downright ugly. A few months ago I asked my hairdresser to show me something “different” to do with my hair. She twirled and twisted it into the neatest style that I’ve yet to be able to replicate. So when I received a small, medium and large Flexi8 I will admit to being skeptical about it being able to hold up. After watching a quick video and choosing the “Up and Down” style which is similar to a French Twist, in two tries my twist looked exactly like the one on the video!

Excited about the possibilities, I then watched Extra Hair, Half Twist and Tails Up videos. The website claims that once trying out the Flexi8 flexible barrette “LOOK OUT…you’re in love.” It’s true. I wear them every day to work when I’m too lazy to straighten my hair. My mother even tried to steal the large size from me, but she wasn’t quick enough. At $9.99 and up, the Flexi8 is less expensive than hiring your hairdresser to come home with you. (On a side note, I love my hairdresser and asked her once how much she would charge to do my hair everyday. Her answer? More than you can afford.) And please don’t ask me to choose between my Flexi8 and Bounce bar, an impossible choice.

This product review was made possible by the Double Duty Divas. I was not compensated for this review other than a product sample provided by Flexi8. All opinions are 100% mine.

    I watched the french twist and half twist videos because that's how I usually wear my hair. I liked the ease of styling and the concept of the Flexi8 looks like it will really hold. Yay! On top of that, they have a great variety of good looking styles.
