Shiny, smooth hair is one of the hottest trends right
now and one of the greatest ways
to knock years off your appearance.
No matter how many cosmetic procedures you may have indulged in or what lotions and potions you
have bought, if your hair is brittle and dull it will make you look older.
The blunt bob is one of the most coveted cuts of the moment. When hair is cut sharp and
looks polished and shines like glass, you feel ready to take on the world.
Not many of us have super straight hair that just falls into
place so here are some products to help you on your way.
Kérastase Elixir Ultime L'huile Original £41.40, kerastase.co.uk
A wonderful softly-scented bi-phase oil mist that is ideal
for those of you with fluffy hair. This nourishing cocktail of goodies enriched
with oils including argan and maize helps protect your locks and make them look
shinier and thicker. It is also
a good weapon for controlling frizz. Even though you spray and leave it in the
hair, it does not weigh it down as so many of these types of products can. If
you have fine hair opt for the Elixir Ultime Huile Légère.
L’huile de Leonor Greyl, £29.60, feelunique.com
This is a great treatment for dry and/or coloured hair which you use before you shampoo. Made from natural ingredients, it contains copra oil which hydrates and mongongo oil which is rich in fatty acids as well as vitamin E. It helps to protect hair and makes it feel and look like silk.

Schwarzkopf got2b Tame & shine Styling Oil, £4.19,
Boots
Glossy hair without frizz is what this versatile oil promises. Non-greasy, it helps to condition your hair and make it more manageable. For added shine, apply a drop or two after styling. A good value product that delivers. The bottle is small enough to keep in your bag should you need to top up during the day.

KentSalon
XL Curling and Straightening Brush, £33 (For stockists visit kentbrushes.com)
It does not
matter what products you use if your blow-drying skills are not up to scratch.
The secret of getting the glass-like look is creating tension when styling your
hair. A good brush is essential to get your locks sleek and smooth. I like this
brush as it almost does the work for you. It has a great grip so it is easy to
control. The rows of short bristles mixed with heatproof nylon help to give
your hair that lovely sheen.
