I have super thick hair that tends to not do what it’s told, and I couldn’t be happier with the LanaiBLO. You can get a personalised message on your LanaiBLO, perfect for a Christmas gift, and choose from a range of shades including Rose Gold, Pink, White, Chrome, and more. Find out more right here.
