Nothing replaces the real-deal magic of a professional colour refresh or proper trim, but when you're between bookings, there are some satisfying ways to keep your hair looking and feeling its best.

These hair upgrades deliver that post-salon feeling from the comfort of your own bathroom, and will help keep your strands happy until we see you in the chair again.

Winter can be rough, and your hair is probably crying out for moisture and repair. Swap your regular conditioner for a weekly treatment mask that's packed with bond-repairing ingredients or deep hydration tech. Apply it during your Sunday shower, wrap your hair up and leave it on while you contemplate your life decisions.

You don't need a full colour refresh to revive your hair's mood. An at-home gloss is a semi-permanent glaze that boosts shine and tones brassiness. It can help tone down the fade that happens between salon visits and make your colour look like it's still fresh off the foils. Plus it often helps smooth the hair cuticle, which means fewer frizz battles when it's raining sideways.

Winter is prime time for showing your scalp some extra love; the season of flakes, oiliness and that tight, itchy feeling. Treatments like exfoliating scrubs, balancing tonics and nourishing pre-wash oils can help remove buildup, boost circulation and create the ideal conditions for stronger, shinier hair to grow. Add in a DIY head massage: a small ritual that makes a big difference. Almost as good as a salon session!
