I hate US Naturals! (hmph)

OK OK so I don't really hate US naturals, I just hate that I don't have the ability to walk down to Sally's and pick up the latest hottest thing on the hairboards.  I'm mad that I gotta pay through the nose in GBP for my favourite products and possibly get hit by big shipping and sometimes even customs charges on top!  I'm mad because all the hair show and multiple meetups you'll find over there just don't come around as often in the UK.  I'm especially mad at all the Etsy stores with cute hair-friendly accessories with all the vendors based in the States so the UK prices are inflated and then you gotta add shipping again!  I know I shouldn't be, but I am a little jealous...


I wanna ask my fellow UK naturals, where do you go fo fabulous n fly accessories in the UK cause really all I see is bland or expensive most places I look.  I love a gorgeous flower in my fro as much as the next fly natural!  Anybody know of budding hair accessory makers in the UK?  If yes, hit me up in the comments section!

Really you think UK is bland? I think there is plenty of choice. I like accessorize a lot but I also go through the racks of any shop that I find myself in from DP to whistles to m&s to evan to topshop.........they all have fab accessories.

I'm not sold on products making a huge difference to hair so I will happily use anything

OK, maybe 'bland' was too harsh, but I just see much more variation and 'natrocentric' (made up word haha) items available for sale by US vendors. I'll try checking out some of the stores you mentioned. Thanks for commenting!
