Billy Bookcase Ikea Hack! Turn a Bookcase into a sideboard cabinet.
I used two ikea bookcases (Billy) lay on their sides.
Fixed them to the wall and to each other and repurposed the shelves and some mdf for the doors.
I already had the bookshelves so I probably only spent around £50 to transform them.
I am certainly no carpentry wizard but I am so happy with how they turned out!

Perming my hair from start to finish including touching up bits I had missed. I AM NOT a hairdresser and I don't know for sure what Im talking about so I wouldn't copy me!

    Looks great!! Question for all you experts! Why wouldn't you saturate the hair before rolling?? Thanks in advance! x

    Love love love the perm xxxx curly hair really suits you so you got the best of both worlds xxxx

  • @colleenforcier2203
    @colleenforcier2203 ปีที่แล้ว

    The parts that were straight are probably because the perm lotion didn't saturate the hair enough. Make sure your sections aren't bigger than the rod and really saturate the hair on the rod. Also, you don't need to dry your hair before the neutralizer, just a good towel dry will do. You can also add some product in your hair to help get through those couple of days. I know this video is old, but in case anyone wonders what to do to help with the issues you had. Your end result looked very nice. It really suits you.

    @oysterdiva2853 ปีที่แล้ว

    You may have some bits that didn't quite take, but that makes it look more natural, I think. If it's perfect everywhere, it "looks" permed. Good job, girl! Looks great 👍

    U get that line from having the rods on to tight. U want them u have a little bit a room to move so they dont make the line impression

  • @kristieoneill4409
    @kristieoneill4409 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know this video is old but if you have dyed or chemically treated hair in any way you have to use a perm for chemically treated hair so it doesn’t damage it more

    Courtney, I've been doing my own hair for over 45 years. I'm by no means a licenced hairstylist, but having been doing it as long as I have, I have to admit I've been able to do a pretty good job doing it. If that's the first time you've permed your own hair you did a pretty good job on it.

  • @rosefille
    @rosefille 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @courtneyclarke5469
      @courtneyclarke5469 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just used mdf and painted them in a satin as I found it was the best finish to match the ikea doors! Thank you for your kind words and I'm sorry for the late reply!

      @courtneyclarke5469 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They are useful enough! I store things like cleaning supplies, craft items, and I have put boxes inside to hold smaller items like lightbulbs and tools. They would be better if they weren't so shallow but they work for us. We have even mounted our Dyson hoover charging point inside one of the cupboards so keep all of our attachments in there with the hoover!

    It looked like your roll up was good. Maybe your hair dried before perm solution went on. It tends to roll off dry hair.

    Due to Coronavirus Pandemic, circuit breaker. I'm need to perm my hair @ home. I saw your video & find is easy to perm. Look great & gorgerous. I want to know how you curl the back of your hair. My hair is shorter & needs to purchase all the products before I perm. Please advise.👍👏😊

    You can wet and condition it before 48 hours but you just can’t use shampoo before 48 hrs. Looks good. I’m amazed at how well you did by yourself! That’s hard to do!
