V Festival with Mark Hill Hair

                                            

- 20th - 21st August 2016 -                        

I was recently very lucky to have been chosen as the winner of a competition run by Mark Hill Hair to win tickets to join them at V Festival, and as they treated us so amazingly and we had such a fab weekend, I decided to start up a blog (which I have been um-ing and ah-ing over for a while now) and dedicate my first ever blog to all the glittery fun that we got up to, so here goes!

Day 1 - So after battling through a thunderstorm and an illusive coach on the way up there and having a little too much fun at the silent disco the night before, we made it in one piece to the Mark Hill tent bright and early on Saturday morning. After being rained on and attempting to do SOMETHING with our hair from the inside of a tent, the girls from Mark Hill were an absolute saviour. We jumped straight to the front of the queue (which was already growing at 11am!) and sat straight down. I opted for a half up - half down braids do to make the most of my still clean hair, whereas my best friend Tori went all out with a glittery roots triple braid look - both looked fab and went felt 100% better after being pampered a little bit. Of course we couldn't resist popping into the selfie booth (anyone who knows us knows that we LOVE a selfie booth). We also hung around for a little bit to say hi to Charlotte who (god bless her) was spending the day meeting and greeting fans at the Mark Hill Tent.

The fabulous girls at Mark Hill and also managed to bag us VIP tickets all weekend, meaning we could hang out in the VIP area when all the dancing got a bit too much, safe to say that we made full use of the giant yellow banana hammocks in VIP!

Day 2 - Sunday morning we returned back to the Mark Hill tent and were greeted by the same lovely ladies Poppy and Sophie and jumped to the front of the queue again. Tori just had a glitter top up and I changed into a similar two braid glitter root style to hide the slightly worse for wear third day festival hair. I have to say that the girls did such a great job that and the products smelt smelt so amazing that I actually came out feeling more confident than I did on the first day. All the while the team were filming and did a few interviews with us both and gave us a chance to talk about some of our favourite products from the bundle of their new summer products that they had sent us to try out before the weekend. We came out feeling like celebrities and buzzing for our last day of V Fest with our sassy glittery matching hair do's!

So there we are, my first blog post! I want to say a massive THANK YOU to the Mark Hill Team and Sophie and Poppy for giving us this opportunity and for the most amazing weekend being treated like VIP's the entire time. Keep an eye out for Mark Hill and their products, I have a feeling they are going to be BIG this year!
