We've all been there - ripping off the wrapping paper to reveal... the worst Christmas presents ever ? The HQhair squad at head office are sharing the worst gifts they've ever received, 'cos all we want for Christmas isn't you.
Worst Christmas Presents
1. Golf Clubs
NO WAY"My nan saw my brother as the golden child which meant he got everything he wanted and, to be fair, I got the same but cheaper. One year he wanted golf clubs, so guess what I got..."
Kirsty, Senior Campaigns ExecutiveSLAYOne up the worst Christmas presents with the ghd platinum+ straighteners - 'cause who wants to be basic anyway?
2. A Fitness Watch
NO WAY"A Fit Bit I didn't ask for... #needtobeinthegym"
Fran, General ManagerSLAYThere's only one kind of fit we want. Treat yo' self to the Maybelline Fit Me range, ideal for oily to normal skin types.
3. A Banjo
NO WAY"A very expensive banjo"
Jack, Content ExecutiveSLAYGo for an alternative sort of music with these eyeshadow palettes by theBalm.
4. Matching Crochet
NO WAY"A crocheted flower hat and scarf. It was purple and brown. It also matched my sister's. I was 25."
Laura, Campaign ManagerSLAYThe only kinda’ flowers we want? In our skincare, duh. You can shop some of our fave natural beauty products right here.
5. Gin Gifts
NO WAY"Every year my Nana buys me gin and gin related gifts... even though I'm allergic"
Izzi, Head of TradingSLAYTonic presents you can’t use with our edit of botanical beauty products.
6. A Pink Knitting Set
NO WAY"A pink knitting set. I've never knitted. I still can't."
Rahoul, Senior eCRM ExecutiveSLAYDon't tie yourself up in knots - figure things out and straighten up with Tangle Teezer.
7. The Apprentice DVDs
NO WAY"My secret santa specially ordered me a DVD of the Apprentice - it even had extra scenes"
Melissa, Content ExecutiveSLAYDon't get fired - look fire with our fave red lipsticks.
8. A Pill Box
NO WAY"My mum once bought me a pill box. I wasn't taking any pills so who knows why."
Matt, eCRM ManagerSLAYLooking to get your everyday essentials in order? These are our daily go-to skincare products.
9. Plastic Frogs
NO WAY"A jar of plastic frogs. I was 10 years old at the time and no longer interested in plastic toys... and I never liked frogs"
Rob, PPC ExecutiveSLAYSwap the frogs for a prince with our fave Lipstick Queen blusher - the green changes to create a bespoke pink hue, perfect for your skin tone.
9. A Food Blender
NO WAY"A RED food blender, as it didn’t match the décor of the kitchen and I don’t blend anything."
