Christmas and New Year’s Eve parties are fast approaching so why not treat someone special to one of TopStylista’s fabulous personal styling and shopping gift vouchers. They combine an ultimate fashion stylist makeover and personal shopping experience. This is the perfect luxury item for someone and will prepare them for the festive holiday – they’ll love it, guaranteed!
The perfect gift for the fashionistas (male or female), TopStylista’s gift vouchers start from £175, which will give you a 2 hour personal sopping, personal styling or wardrobe weeding session. Gift Vouchers can be used up to a year from purchase and would make perfect sense to be used in the January sales.
During your session with Chantelle, London Personal Stylist extraordinaire, you will learn about your body shape, your most flattering colours and loads of really helpful style tips to take away with you.
These gift vouchers can be given to men or women and can be tailored to the person you are buying it for making them totally bespoke and unique. Anything from a style consultation and glass of champagne on arrival, a professional makeover, a manicure and a men’s barbering concept can be included in one of these personal stylist experiences making them a lovely gift for Christmas.
If you’re a savvy shopper who likes to save pennies where you can, you may be put off by the price of branded products such as ghd straighteners.
At £100 a pop, these products aren’t exactly pocket money buys. However, what you may not realise is that ghd straighteners are expensive because they are not just a one-off purchase – they are an investment.
Taken care of properly, a pair of ghd straighteners will last you several years, and that includes their 2 year guarantee, which offers you an instant replacement should your styler prove faulty within 2 years of purchase. In contrast to cheap imitations and counterfeit stylers, ghd products will not need replacing for a substantial amount of time, and their quality of performance will not decrease. Buy cheaper stylers and you risk unnecessary replacement or repair costs, as well as damage to your hair due to inferior technology and safety standards. So when you think about it, the genuine ghds are really the cheap ghds in the long run. Calculate the price per month, and you’ll see for yourself.
