My hair is long, dark and straight and I plan on having it half up-half down and curly on my wedding day. I am doing my hair myself, I was wondering if you could recommend which products to use to get the curls to hold. I need them to be in all day and night which will be about 16 hours. What do you think will be best? And should I use curling tongs, rollers or straighteners? Congrats on your forthcoming wedding!

I would recommend heated rollers on clean dry hair. Use Clynol "Mousette" when drying then Clynol "Freeflow" hairspray on the sections before you roll them in. Try getting a friend to help or maybe a young hairdresser if £s are an issue. Tension is the key to getting a good result. Do a few trials before to make sure you are happy and good luck!

I am a 15 year old girl. I have got black curly hair, that is quite thick, up to my shoulders. I like the slightly tousled hairstyle. I would like to sport in when I’m out with my friends. I like it because it looks natural, casual and lovely. How can I get this style at home?

This sounds like you need the right product for your hair.

I would strongly recommend Sebastian Potion 9. This is a leave in conditioner that can be applied after you have washed and towel dried your hair. Apply a small amount to the middle length to the ends of the hair and then either let your hair dry naturally or very gently dry your hair with a diffuser on the end of your hair dryer at a slow speed and on a coolish setting.

What colour is Leona Lewis’ hair colour currently? It’s like a blonde colour but I can’t find the exact colour?

Take a picture of Leona to your nearest Wella Salon and ask to have a consultation with the Wella Colourist.

I’m a guy growing my hair out. It’s starting to drive me crazy and I’m wondering what am I supposed to do with my sideburns in particular, as they grow longer they bug me more and more. This is the first time I have grown my hair out so I am pretty clueless!

Try going to your local salon and ask them to thin out and shape your side burns they also will help to keep your hair maintained whilst you’re growing it.

My natural hair colour is a medium brown but I have dyed it what was labeled ’ chocolate brown’ but it has turned out looking very black. I would like to go back to being a light brown/blonde colour. I wouldn’t mind being light brown with some blonde highlights. Is there a way that I can get my hair to being light again as it is so dark now. I have been told by my hairdressers that they won’t do anything as it will turn orange. If the hairdressers can’t do this then I’m stuck with black hair and don’t want it so dark anymore! I know celebrities can go from dark brown to blonde so please could you help me to as well?

You should find once it has been washed a few times this will fade so be patient!
