99% of the people in Qatar will be on Facebook and as a result, there are lots of wonderful groups and pages with useful information or interests / hobbies that you may like to be a part of. Here are a few groups and pages that I have liked and joined, that you might wish to add yourself to.
Fashion & Beauty
www.facebook.com/FashionRocksQatar
'Fashion Rocks Qatar' - managed by two ladies, Kellie & Charne, and proves to be an excellent 'go-to' page for all things fashion and beauty. The page is fun to read, addictive and certainly a good find! Additionally, FRQ hold events which are worth attending, such as their recent 'High Tea Fundraiser for Cancer Awareness'. Currently the page has over 20,000 likes, showing just how many ladies love to keep up to date with FRQ.
www.facebook.com/BespokeEyelashes
'Bespoke Eyelashes' - As an eyelash extension addict in London, I was pleased to find this page dedicated to eyelash extensions and beauty. An advanced, British mobile professional, with 4 years experience, (including extending the eyelashes of Miss England - OMG!!) who has moved to Doha to extend the lashes of Qatar! Excellent prices (350QR for a set of eyelashes extensions!!) Certainly another excellent find especially as we are coming up to party season.... I mean, who wants to wear mascara?? Not me! The silky lashes are placed onto your natural lashes with perfection, leaving you with longer, thicker eyelashes lasting up to 8 weeks. Definitely a must 'Like' to your list.
www.facebook.com/pages/Glow-American-Salon
'Glow, American Salon' - Mentioned in another post (Hints & Tips || Beauty Needs), another Facebook page which I enjoy seeing in my news feed, especially as they give away freebies, such as Waxing, HD Brows, Massages and Manicures! Glow has three salons, filled with employees from all around the world!
www.facebook.com/bluebrushhairstudio
'Blue Brush Hair Studio' - Their Facebook page is filled with high-fashion photo shoots proving their excellence in hair colouring, styles and cuts. Also another giver of freebies, such as hair treatments, manicures and blow dries! I LOVE seeing the new hair trends that Blue Brush has created, they certainly know their hair folicles inside and out, and their Facebook Page is definitely a must 'Like'!
www.facebook.com/pages/Qatar-International-Beauty-Academy-Tajmeel
'Tajmeel'- is a beauty training center for anyone who wishes to peruse beauty courses such as how to apply make-up to yourself, hair styles, how to apply colour and so forth. It is also a page for those who do not mind being a guinea-pig, or do not wish to spend fortunes getting your beauty fixes! Regular post-ers, another delight to see run in my news feed and certainly worth a 'Like'!
Health & Fitness
'Stand-up Paddling Yoga' - Yes, you heard correctly! This is a wonderful group who grab their paddle boards, cruise along the warm Doha waters and perform their Yoga exercise, while still on the paddle board! If you have never done this before, don't fret as you can have a lesson beforehand which will assist you when you do get to join the group on the waters. I've not personally had the chance to do this yet, but i'm working on it!
'RawME Qatar' - RawME stands for Raw Middle-East, and are providers in cleansing juices and neutritional detox juices. Regular post-ers of healthy food, drinks, fruits and so forth, these guys are definitley worth a 'Like' to remind you that you do need a healthy balance in your life! Another on my to-do list, and now that you can order the good stuff directly to your door there is no reason not to give your body a good detox and rid of all those naughty delights you've been having.
'Doha Bay Running Club' - this is a group for those who love to stay fit and in shape by running. Often running along the corniche early on a Friday morning, this group is very motivating to follow and will have you up and running in no time! They organise running trips, races, impropu workouts after work so if this is your cup of tea, or looking for a group to run with, these are you people!
'Fitness Qatar' - A great page to add if you need motivation to get fit and in shape! They have a list of avialable personal trainers who are on tap to give you that little bit of extra help to get you moving in the gym or outside!
New in Qatar
'Qatar Living' - this is the most popular place to start when looking to move to Qatar, or for those to refer to once they have arrived in Qatar. It is a huge, informative website which also has a Facebook page filled with useful information that will appear in your news feed. Qatar living also shares important news articles, such as the recent alcohol ban outdoors beside water (beach/pool etc). Certainly like this page to assist your day-to-day life in Qatar, or the run up to it.
'Doha Mums' - A large group for mothers or mum-to-be, who are in Doha. A wonderful group who are a great support network for mummies new to doha. They have an extablished website too, which is where you can find out information about how to become a member, when and where they all meet and mum's nights out! http://www.dohamums.com
'Trinity Talent Qatar' - need some extra cash? A natural born poser? Excellent waitress? Excellent host? Want to become a model / hostess? This is your chance! TTQ is a well established talent agency who have many, many jobs requiring any of the above. Friendly and fun, I recommend registering with them because they are always in need of extras and models. Like their page to see the latest roles that need filling. Registration is free!
'Events Doha' - the who, what, where of Doha. Know what's going on at the weekends, the biggest events and how to get there! Good for your social life - so a definite 'Like'!!
I hope that you enjoyed this post and find new friends along the way! If you have a page or group you love, post it below and share with us!
