The Fix: Tween Beauty Pressure, Haircut Horrors & That "Mum-Sexiness" Myth

Tween leg shaving dilemmas when peer pressure meets parental hesitation? Surviving the worst haircut of your life when you look like you're wearing a helmet? Or maybe you're a mum who's lost herself in leggings, desperately wanting to feel sexy again?

Welcome to The Fix - where your beauty agony aunts Kelly & Amy tackle the awkward, practical, and essential dilemmas that come with real life beauty struggles.

We're navigating tween beauty milestones, sharing survival strategies for hair disasters (scarves and hats at the ready!), and giving busy mums minimal-effort tips to reclaim their confidence.

Plus, we break down the latest beauty headlines: Mariah Carey's Christmas defrosted too early for a Sephora deal, and Big W is about to become your new beauty destination thanks to TikTok.
