When I was growing up, my sister and I were very close and there wasn’t much I could do to make her cry. One of the few times I did bring her to tears was when we decided I should give her a layered haircut rather than going to the local hairdresser.
Big mistake, huge! Unfortunately big sister Kirsten’s beautiful long locks were reduced to a strange lop-sided bob that was not even cool for the alternative kids. Oops!
While my sister was blindly confident in my hairdressing ability – she’s not the only one that has been sucked into giving a sibling free reign on the beauty front.
Kate Hudson has revealed that her brother use to let her practice her make-up skills on him.
"My poor brother. He was kind enough to be my mannequin, and let me experiment on his face. I'd put blue eye shadow on him and we'd laugh," Hudson told People.
My old touch football coach is another example of family experimentation gone wrong. Every week he would turn up to training with nail polish on his fingers or colourful cheeks. Never let your nieces near you!” he would shrug before yelling at us to start running in a manly way.
Have you ever given a younger sibling or family member free reign on your make-up look?
