6 beauty essentials for your hair
We've put together a list of six items you need to keep your hair looking beautiful
Is your hair looking thin and needing that extra oomph? Then you need a volumising shampoo and conditioner. If you have noticed it's a little dry on the ends, then its time to treat yourself to a conditioning hair mask. Nourishing hair oils are also great if you want to add moisture without having to get under the shower.
If you're on your second (or third!) day hair, then dry shampoo is your saviour for reducing excess oil and freshening up your hair. Or why not try a styling hot brush which can straighten or add silky curls for an extra bounce?
Finally, get rid of frizz and flyaway with an anti frizz serum! No matter what your hair's like, there's a product for you. Why not give these top rated products a try?

Nourishing Hair Oil
Biosilk® Hydrating Therapy Maracuja Oil

Testers particularly liked using it on damp or wet hair, noting that their hair tangled less in the wind after use. Easily absorbed, testers found they could apply to hair multiple times without a build-up of residue.
