OGX Moisture + Vitamin B5 Shampoo and Conditioner
When it comes to my hair, I’m naughty. A beauty rebel, if you will. I colour it, heat style it, and often skip the weekly masks. So to ease the stress on my strands, I’ve started using OGX’s Moisture + Vitamin B5 shampoo and conditioner. Infused with a blend of vitamin B5 and pro-vitamin B, the duo is as nourishing as they come, and I feel like I’m drenching my hair in moisture with every wash. I find it also adds a little shine. Now, excuse me while I flick my hair back and forth… and reach for the blow-dryer. ;) - Katia

Charles Worthington Instant Root Concealer - Brown
Anyone who dyes their hair will know the actual pain you feel when your roots start to show. I’m not unfamiliar with this faux pas. If I took myself to a salon every time it happened, I would be broke and on the streets. The Charles Worthington Instant Root Concealer is the answer to all my prayers - it’s a temporary colour that gets me through that awkward time between salon visits, and also covers greys if and when they emerge. An all-round hair saviour. It’s mess-free, dries quickly, and the colour can be built up until you get the shade that blends in with the rest of your mane. Why hasn’t someone thought of this before?! - Jocelyn

Marc Anthony True Professional Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray
I got hooked on the Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray after receiving it at the Marc Anthony True Professional launch. After learning it was the first waterless hairspray delivering hold without stiffness, I was keen to put it to the test myself. While I’m not an everyday hairspray user, I spritz it whenever I curl my hair (which is most weekends). I really like this one because it’s fast-drying and has a strong yet flexible hold. On top of that, it leaves no flaking or residue and has health benefits for my hair thanks to the inclusion of argan oil and keratin. Perfection. - Yelena

De Lorenzo Absolute Deep Cleanse & Equilibrium Masque
I put an awful lot of sh*t in my hair (see my photo: clearly!). I’m either having fun with colour, volumising like a boss, or dry-shampooing 3-days of grease away... Suffice to say my hair gets pretty gritty with all this happening and I therefore like to use a clarifying shampoo once a week to get rid of all that product build-up. My hairdresser recommended the De Lorenzo version and it certainly hasn't disappointed. I always slather the ends in the Equilibrium Masque from the same range afterwards to lock in moisture and keep my hair in a somewhat decent condition. - Kelly

Batiste Neon Lights Dry Shampoo
I’m cursed with oily hair. I feel like I need to wash it every day, which is a big no-no in the beauty world. So my mane’s long-term BFF is Batiste Dry Shampoo. It leaves my hair feeling refreshed and more importantly, clean, between washes. Without fail. The latest addition to my Batiste stash is Neon Lights, which has a delightfully fresh pomegranate and jasmine scent. Dry shampoo is such a quick and easy way to revamp your hair each day and hey, if it saves me time in the morning, I’m all for it! - Aja

Joico Colour Balance Blue Shampoo & Conditioner
Considering the small fortune I spend at the hairdresser, I want each new ‘do to last as long as possible. Despite being brunette, there is still a chance that my highlights (natural or otherwise) will veer towards the orange end of the spectrum. Joico Color Balance Blue Shampoo & Conditioner has been specifically formulated to stop brunettes from going brassy. The deliciously smelling pair leave my hair feeling shiny, soft and the exact brown shade I paid for. - Sarah
