We’ve all heard that olive oil is good for your hair, but personally I’ve always been a bit scared to try it incase it wouldn’t rinse out and my hair ended up, well, oily. Luckily, The Body Shop have produced their Olive Glossing Shampoo. It contains olive leaf extract rather than oil, which makes hair glossy as well as helping to protect hair from damage. And, because it’s The Body Shop, you can lather up guilt free, as the oil is sourced from a co-operative in Italy, making sure that it’s top quality and the producers get a fair cut of the profit.The shampoo also contains organic honey which moisturises and conditions the hair.

There’s also a conditioner, which does contain organic olive oil which gets right inside the hair to condition and nourish, as well as protect.

If you fancy trying it, the shampoo and conditioner are available in a small 60ml size which contains enough for 3 or 4 washes, and perfect for taking on holiday.

Find it at The Body Shop online or in store.

I’m a big fan on Tigi haircare especially the Bed Head products so I was thrilled to see that a new collection had been added to the Bed Head range. Superstar consists of several luxurious products including Thermal blow-dry lotion, Volumizing Hairspray, Volumizing Leave in Conditioner, Superstar shampoo and conditioner and Queen For A Day.

All the bottles are pink and purple - the ultimate girly collection and all reasonably priced (most under £10 per bottle). I must have made my way through the whole Bed Head collection so I am very pleased they have launched these fab new products!

The products would make ideal gifts for friends and are all available at HQ Hair to buy now.

If you’re in the mood to give your hair a bit of TLC then dig into your pockets and purchase a conditioning mask to give dull locks a little lift. I love this Shear Splendor mask available at HQ Hair. It not only makes your hair feel fabulous but also helps repair and restore hair from within the shaft.

The product contains peptides, soy and botanical butter base, instantly helping dry and damaged hair look and feel soft, shiny and fabulous. This mask costs £18 but I recommend it over others, it tends to last quite a long time too as you don’t need a lot to get you locks back into shape!

Have you had your hair cut off and so wished you hadn’t? I did it last year. In a mad moment I said to my hairdresser just cut it off, so she did! My neat, shoulder-length bob was transformed into a short, cropped style which I liked at the time, but it soon grew out of style and I regretted having the snip. I looked on the Internet to find something, anything that would make it grow; I didn’t find anything and have had to wait months for it to grow out.

This product caught my eye so I thought I should share it with any of you who are looking for the same thing. FAST is a product to increase hair growth on existing hair, it isn’t a hair loss product. It claims that if you use the product every day, and your hair normally grows 1 inch per month, using this it will grow 1½ inches per month. Over 6 months that’s an extra 3 inches of luscious long hair!! They say that it works on all hair types, on both men and women and can be used with any other hair products. I am interested to hear if this really does work; let me know!!

Pamper your dry, damaged hair with this fabulous shampoo and conditioner that I found on QVC. My hair is hi-lighted and I use straighteners every day, so gets quite dry, especially on the longer bits at the front. I like QVC for beauty products as you can try them out and if you don’t like them for any reason, you can return them within 30 days and they will give you a full refund; you can’t go wrong!!

This product really caught my eye as it contains 100% pure Ojon oil from the tropical Ojon tree found in the tropical forests of Central America. Apparently, The Tawira Indians from this region have used this oil for centuries and they have been nicknamed “the people of beautiful hair”, so I thought I must give it a try!

Mixed with shea butter and sweet almond protein it hydrates your luscious locks to restore moisture and shine and I found it made my hair much more manageable and easier to de-tangle! Both shampoo and conditioner have a lovely light, nutty fragrance which lasts for ages.

It isn’t cheap at £34 plus P&P, but you only need a small amount so it will last for ages!

Well, what can I say, Kate Moss is certainly spreading herself out across the fashion industry. Not only does she have her own clothes and perfume ranges, she has now designed a new hair care range as part of James Brown London. This is just one of her products and it is an intensive hair mask.

The mask has a formula rich in Vitamins and Shea butter. It is a great treatment for your hair and scalp that will keep it sleek and moisturised. It should be used once a week for best results, then comb through dry or recently washed hair, leave for 10 minutes then rinse and wash. This is just the start of the eagerly awaited hair care range inspired by Kate moss. Available from Boots for just £7.99, or to find out more visit www.jamesbrownlondon.com.

I always see loads of adverts on the TV for different types of Head and Shoulders products but the adverts don’t tell you what each range is for. So I thought I should view their website and find out a bit more. Originally Head and Shoulders were just targeted to tackle dandruff but now they have quite a few different ranges designed for every type of hair.

This shampoo is designed to hydrate tired or frizzy hair. It has been specially formulated to pamper the scalp and moisture your hair while adding a silky smooth shine. They also have a conditioner in the same range which helps to keep your hair stay smooth and locks the moisture in. Both the shampoo and conditioner still have the anti dandruff benefits and are available in most supermarkets and on the Superdrug website.

This moisture injection shampoo from Toni and Guy will boost moisture into your hair using honey Quat and Panthenol. It is ideal for dry, frizzy and damaged hair, made especially to identify and hit the source of damage, straight from the first wash. This shampoo will improve the strength of your hair and its elasticity. It is so important to use a good shampoo as this will achieve great styling results.

The conditioner is also available in the same range and is recommended to be used at the same time. Using these will leave you with healthy hair that is full of vitality. They come in funky pink and silver bottles. For £4.99 you really can’t go wrong, even the packaging looks fab!

Apparently Hari’s salon in Knightsbridge, London has recently started using Bulls semen to style their customers’ hair! Ugh! Sounds disgusting, but this it is actually a really good hair conditioning treatment. The salon has taken note of Cameron Diaz’s style, remember there’s something about Mary? The comedy? When Cameron’s character Mary accidentally used sperm to style her hair.

The treatment takes around 45 minutes and gives your hair an intensive conditioning experience. The product is made of semen from Aberdeen Angus bulls in a Cheshire farm and the root of a katera plant. The owner of the salon Mr Salem has been searching for the perfect product for a long time and now he has started using this he says it really works. The treatment costs £55, check out www.metro.co.uk for the full article.

Treat Me Right is yet another must have product from Bed Head. It is found under the conditioners section but it is actually an intensive hair mask that is going to create silky and shiny hair and can be used on all hair types. It not only works wonders on your hair but it refreshes your scalp as well. This hair mask has a yummy peppermint scent so it will leave your locks looking and smelling gorgeous.

It’s not just your skin and body you have to look after, you have to take care of your hair as well, unfortunately the sun and winter weather does more damage than we realise and you won’t actually notice the difference straight away. As you get older, when you’re trying to look younger is when the effects will take their toll. So the label Treat Me Right says it all. Available at HQ Hair for £12.05.
