This story is about my undying love for Davines, the brand that has inspired everyone from my barista to my colleagues to ask me about my shiny, shiny hair. But before I sing the praises of yet another serum you should buy because it’s the best, I need to explain why it matters to me so much.
OI/ Shampoo and Conditioner SLES- and paraben-free, you only need a tiny bit of both shampoo and conditioner so, if spending $15 on a shampoo feels a bit extravagant, rest assured a bottle of each lasts me three months. Three months! And I wash my hair loads! Plus, I have no idea what about it makes my hair both smooth and volume-y, but even when I’m too lazy to apply product after washing it, it looks rad.
OI/ All In One Milk Before I dry my hair, I spray this through it all. Both a heat-protector and a shiny, conditioning moisturizer, it doesn’t leave me with sticky or crispy strands which are the bane of my hair-product-using life.
MELU Mellow Split Ends Repairing Sealing Serum So, I now actually make it to my darling hairdresser every three months but, because I use straighteners on my hair and also it’s just a part of life, I still end up with split ends. The serum has keratin in it, which somehow disguises them, and a cellulose conditioning agent that helps avoid them.
This Is A Relaxing Moisturizing Fluid My natural hair-state is curly/frizzy and I live in London, land of the constant, light spatter of rain. A tiny amount of this smoothed over and through my hair is like some sort of miracle cure for humidity and weather-related disasters. Smooth and shiny. That’s all I want.
Oil Non-Oil For Wizards I basically don’t do anything remotely exciting with my hair—the closest I come to a ‘do’ is slicking it back into a bun. Decent quantities of the Oil Non-Oil is ideal for wet-look, Lucy-Chadwick-esque chic vibes but a little bit also adds some weight to it when it’s down.
