For great hair days, here is our complete guide to the top salons, best treatments and the season’s most current styles – plus the products to keep everything in place.
THE PARTY-HAIR MUST-HAVES
If your hair needs volume, apply Color Wow’s Raise the Root Spray and Hair by Sam McKnight’s Cool Girl Texture Mist, or try R + Co’s Rockaway Salt Spray for beachy waves. The perfect updo requires maximum hold without stickiness, so use Hair by Sam McKnight’s Easy-Up Do, but if you dream of smooth, shiny tresses, use Color Wow Pop & Lock, or Olaplex.
THE COLOUR RULES BY JOSH WOOD
‘Rather than change your shade for the party season, book in for a glossing treatment, which adds tone and high shine while revitalising your colour. Most last a few shampoos, so for just a little commitment you can really dial your hair up for an event. I love the new Redken Color Gel Lacquers. With protective wheat protein and smoothing avocado oil, they keep dyed hair hydrated and soft during the winter months, which can otherwise leave lengths dull and brittle, and they give a glassy finish.’ 020 3393 0977; www.joshwoodcolour.com.
