Should you try a hair detox?

MAny of us detox our bodies in January, but we forget our hair, which can suffer from a build-up of pollution, dirt and products, making it look dull and flat.

Detoxing hair can make colours brighter, styling easier and products work better.

‘Research has revealed 82 per cent of us are unaware that spoiling ourselves over Christmas can lead to a flare up in dandruff,’ says trichologist Anabel Kingsley. ‘A scalp detox is a good remedy.’

Try clarifying products, such as Pureology Purify Shampoo (£13.20, feel
