NEW HAIR HEROES
There are some game-changing products hitting the shelves this spring, so we’ve rounded up the best ones to make your locks sleek and chic
1 METALLIC COLOURS
Shimmery metallics have made the move from make-up bags to the salon, and rose-gold hair is a serious trend for spring. L’oréal has a new range of dyes in five shades, covering blondes to brunettes, while Clairol Nice’n Easy has launched 54 more traditional shades with a formula that doesn’t have the harsh smell.
2 FANCY FOAMS
Whipped-up mousse is the way forward as some of our everyday basics are given a fresh spin, with Aussie launching a feather-light conditioner that’s great for fine hair. Dry shampoos are going foamy, too, and Umberto Giannini’s foam shampoo will rub into greasy roots without leaving any damp or chalky residue.
3 SLEEK CHEATS
Frizzy roots and flyaways spoiling your hairdo will be a thing of the past, as these new IGK smoothing wipes are the perfect antidote to unruly strands. Made from natural hemp paper and infused with avocado and camelia oils, they smooth over and calm static with just one swipe. There’s no mess or residue, and the handbag-sized sachets are perfect for on the go. Pocket-sized saviours!
4 MARVELLOUS MASKS
You’ll feel like you’ve stepped into the future with the new space-age hair mask from Redken. Designed to work like a traditional facial sheet mask for your hair, this turban-like foil wrap cleverly covers shampooed locks, and is filled with nourishing aloe vera and cacti extract. Leave on for 5-10 mins, then rinse out. Your tresses will feel brand new.
5 WONDER OILS
Oils can make a huge difference to hair health. For serious TLC, try a warm-oil, preshampoo treatment with moisturising coconut oil from Starskin. Meanwhile, OGX has a brilliant priming oil that will fight off frizz and flyaways when rubbed through damp lengths before drying.
