Get Set to Cleanse with the Pureology Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner Moisturising Bundle for Dry Hair
The dream team for dry locks. We’re kickstarting our ‘get ready with us’ with Pureology’s beloved hydrating heroes. Infused with jojoba, green tea and sage to help restore hair health, the duo works to intensely nourish your strands, leaving them feeling soft, supple and hydrated.
Jimmy Wright-Green, professional hairstylist and head of Redken and Pureology education, said:
‘A number of factors can cause hair to become dry, such as excessive washing, heat styling or exposure to chemicals. The Pureology Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner contain jojoba oil, green tea, sage and Antifade Complex®, renowned for their soothing properties, perfect for dry, colour-treated hair.’
These products are very concentrated, so you only need to use a very small amount each time you cleanse your hair. Each Pureology bottle has a bud on the top of the lid which serves as a guide of how much you should use.’
Revive and Restore with the L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Nourishing Hair Mask
A must-have addition to your everything shower.
L’Oréal Professionnel’sMetal Detox hair mask is formulated to help relieve the signs of hard water damage on your hair. Blended with ingredients that actively work to restore shine and lustre to your strands, this nourishing mask is a go-to for anyone looking to reduce dullness and breakage.
Victoria Strain, L’Oréal Professionnel’s Technical Manager, told us:
'Did you know that there can be excess levels of metal in your hair, which can get absorbed through your shower water? This can cause breakage and premature colour fade. The Metal Detox Hair Mask is enriched with glicoamine, working to remove metal deposits in your hair, leading to smoother, stronger and softer strands.' 'Suitable for all types of hair and textures, I recommend that people with thicker hair apply this product instead of their conditioner, while finer hair types use it as a mask 1-2 times a week after shampooing.’
Say Hello to Glow with Kérastase Gloss Absolu Glaze Drops
With a heavenly rose aroma and silky texture, the new Glaze Drops Hair Oil from Kérastase is a new addition to the brand and is already making waves. Boasting a luxurious, lightweight texture, it creates an ultra-smooth surface to leave your strands glossy and bouncy.
Kérastase’s Education and Content Manager for the UK and Ireland, Gemma Robertson, offers us her professional insight:
Apply into the palms of your hands, massage together and work through the lengths and ends as a finishing product. If you have thick hair that needs an extra dose of hydration, use this on towel-dried hair before you blow-dry, alongside the anti-frizz milk to give the ultimate glossy result.
Get Ready to Repair with the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate 24/7 Night and Day Hair Serum
A potent cocktail of hair-loving ingredients, Redken’sBonding Concentrate is a staple in our haircare routine. Blended with squalane and polyglutamic acid for intensive hydration, this serum is a must-have for those with lifeless hair that needs revitalising.
'Although this serum is designed for overnight repair on dry mid-lengths and ends before bed, it can also be reapplied throughout the day to strengthen hair against daily aggressors. As an oil, be cautious not to apply too much.'
Everything you Need in One Product with Matrix Total Results Miracle Creator Spray
To conclude our ‘get ready with us’, we’re calling on the multitasking haircare miracle worker: the MatrixTreatment Spray. Versatile, fast-working and boasting an array of benefits, this spray is formulated to help tame flyaways, protect against heat and promote shine and volume.
Jayne, senior regional education developer for Matrix Haircare, said:
'This multi-tasking formula has so many benefits for your hair, but my top 3 would have to be: heat protection (up to 230°C), frizz control for air-drying or blow-drying and detangling – helping to avoid those painful knots.' 'The key ingredients in this lightweight spray are two healthy humectants, acetamide and lactamide, which promote softness, shine, body and manageability. Lactic acid also helps to provide a protective layer against heat damage.'
