Which makes the new, volumising ghd Rise Hot Brush the most essential item in your beauty cache. This hot (185°C … the optimum hairstyling temp) little number gives two times more volume, and has the technology to adapt the power based on the speed of your styling, and has smooth-touch nylon bristles that are optimised to ensure close contact so you can lift hair from the roots, glide smoothly through the length with no tangles. Shape. Body. Fullness. And a high-volume crown worthy of a queen! R2900 from salons and ghd.com

This Inoar Kálice Oil is loaded with vitamin E and seven precious vegetable oils. It’s moisturising, nourishing, restorative, antioxidant, softening, protective, and penetrates and absorbs immediately into the hair. Bonus … it’s multifunctional, so you can use it on your face and body too. R950 (or R130 for the small 8ml version – great for travelling).

Résistance Lotus Flower Oil – also with plant ingredients that penetrate deep into the hair fibre and give back its natural moisture – strengthens, repairs, realigns, reduces frizz, and, since your hair will be healthier, adds shine. R130 for 7ml. Inoar products are cruelty-free, vegan and sulphate-free. Details: inoar.co.za

Up your everyday hairstyle with eye-catching accessories. Even a simple ponytail looks the bomb when you add a scrunchie or a pair of clips.
