What does the power of great hair mean to you?
"I have been notoriously hair obsessed since I was about 12, so for me, the power of great hair is everything. It is where my day to day confident woman energy comes from. If my hair looks good, I feel good. It genuinely shifts my mood, my posture and my presence. There is an ongoing joke in the office that if I ever wear my hair up, everyone should check if I am ok.
I spend far too much time on my hair, but it is never really about the hair itself. It is about how it makes me feel. Polished. Put together. Powerful. Great hair is my armour."
What are your favourite products to achieve this?
"My secret weapon is the Texturising Spray. I have naturally fine hair, so I need to add texture to help hold curls and create that fuller, effortless finish. It gives grip without feeling heavy, which makes such a difference to longevity.
I also spray it lightly before bed almost like a dry shampoo, so I wake up with texture already built in and hair that is ready to style. It saves time and gives that perfectly undone feel.
And of course, I cannot live without the 10-in-1. It is our bestseller for a reason. It smooths, protects, detangles and preps in one step. For me, it is the foundation of every great hair day."

What does the power of great hair mean to you?
"For me, the power of great hair is confidence. It’s always been a priority for me to look after my hair because it’s such a big part of who I am. When my hair looks and feels good, I feel more put together and confident in myself, helping me show up as the best version of myself. "
What are your favourite products to achieve this?
"My go-to product is the Beauty Works Restore Mask, it’s a product I genuinely couldn’t live without. My hair is really thick, so I need something that properly hydrates and nourishes while keeping it soft without feeling heavy, and this does exactly that. I also love the Beauty Works 10-in-1 Miracle Spray. It makes my hair so much more manageable and detangles better than anything else I’ve tried. "

What are your favourite products to achieve this?
"My favourite product is Slimline® Tape, I wear Honey Blonde - since entering menopause, my hair has become very fine, so Slimlines® are perfect extensions for me to achieve a fuller look. You don't need lots of extensions to achieve this look, I wear 3 pieces either side, they are discreet and add volume without heaviness.
I also use the Texturising spray as this is perfect for a fuller "good hair day" "

What does the power of great hair mean to you?
"The power of great hair is incredibly important to me. Maintaining and caring for your hair is deeply routed within my heritage - dating back centuries. Hair oiling has and will always be a massive part of my daily routine, it restores shine, promotes growth and tames frizz, giving me the confidence every woman deserves to have!"
What are your favourite products to achieve this?
"With naturally curly, textured and thick hair, my favourite products have to be Argan Oil and the 10-in-1 Miracle Spray. As a part of my daily regime, Argan Oil helps me maintain my curls and keeps the frizz at bay, whilst smelling great. Styling my hair often needs A LOT of heat so using the 10-in-1 is a crucial step to keep my hair protected, healthy and nourished."
