It can be very easy to fall into a hairstyle rut, particularly if you’re rushing around in the mornings and your hair just isn’t playing ball. We often spot incredible hairstyles on our feeds, but when it comes to replicating them in real life, they can prove challenging.

Thankfully, we’ve spied lots of easy to copy hairstyles (that don’t require a hairdressing qualification) on our feeds that you can do in five minutes or less. They’re that easy—and they look pretty chic t...

What I love about this wand, and what sets it apart from others that I’ve tried, is that it gives a really long lasting curl to the hair. When I curl my hair with this, it gives me a tight curl (which initially gives prom in 2007 vibes, I’ll admit). But, once I’ve let the curls cool down –this bit is really important to make your style last for longer–I brush them out with a paddle brush or wide toothed comb, which I’ll spritz with hairspray, to soften the curls into loose waves. This process really helps to give the waves longevity, shine and that salon-worthy bounce. And for £35 for the handle and the wand, it’s seriously worth shouting about.

While sugaring may be similar to waxing, there are a lot of benefits that make it stand out: It’s all-natural. “With a formula of just sugar, water, and lemon, it’s 100% biodegradable and better for the planet,” Blake says. It’s less painful. “Because sugaring paste is applied at a lower temperature than wax and hair is removed in the direction that it grows, the skin is less irritated and red,” Blake says. “Clients will still feel a slight sting from the root of the hair being removed from the tiny pore, but there isn’t that lingering burning sensation wax leaves since sugar paste doesn’t have resins to grab the live skin like wax. Sugar only grabs dead skin and hair.” You’ll get fewer ingrown hairs. &#...

I’ve been a big Adam Reed fan for a long time, admiring his editorial flair, clear craft and the warmth of his personality, so I was expecting to like his products when they finally launched. However, I never expected to be so obsessed. Firstly, there’s something for everyone, from fine hair to thick locks, we are all catered to and the formulas are all vegan. The products really work (more on that later) and are affordable, starting at just £9. This is so important as a lot of the haircare we beauty journalists recommend are professional products to preserve the life of your colour or cut, but these are hairdresser-made, salon-quality products without the steep price-tag. Plus, they smell heavenly. As an admitted exaggerator I often say things are ‘the best thing ever’ but I’m not exagger...

Whether it’s an oversized scrunchie, an embellished hairband, velvet ribbon or a jewelled hair slide, hair accessories save the day when your hair isn’t playing ball.  “Hair accessory looks work well on all hair textures,” says Zoë Irwin, Creative Director of John Frieda Hair Salons. “Some simple ways to experiment with hair accessories are to play with the placement,” she says. “Try applying hair slides through the sides of the hair, plaiting ribbons into the hair, or adding a silk scarf at the base of a ponytail. Hair accessories are great for second and third day hair when you would just like to use some dry shampoo and add a Parisian look to your outfit.” Not only do they distract from oily roots, but a lot of hair accessories work b...

So why GHD? “They offer a collection of four barrel sizes, depending on the kind of blow-dry you are hoping to achieve,” says Eaton. “The largest barrel, size 4, is great for perfecting a big bouncy blow-dry at home, and size 2 is perfectly sized for adding volume at the root on shorter hairstyles.” So you can kind of curate the set you need for you hair length and the style you want. One tip I do have is to make sure you always detangle your hair before your start. As stylists say, you need to do the foundation work first. For all hair types, this means combing through knots and tangles, but if you have curly or Afro-textured hair like I do, you’ll need to detangle and use a paddle brush to straighten first before then using these brushes to smooth and give the hair bounce. You won’t reap...

Recently, I noticed a hairstyle taking over among celebs and fashion insiders: the middle-part bun. Once I started seeing it, I couldn’t unsee it and realized just how ubiquitous it was. Looking for a new way to wear my hair, I was interested in testing it out myself and picked up some tips when I stumbled upon a viral TikTok about the exact products celebrity hairstylist Irinel de León uses to pull off the look when working with Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner. In the video, I learned that de León parts the hair in the middle and ties it into a ponytail in the center of the head before securing the hair into a twisted bun. She then applies a wax stick to combat flyaways and achieve a slicked-back look and uses a boar-bristle brush to smooth the hair. While ...

You might be wondering what the summer 2022 hair trends might be, but hairstylists and hair colourists alike have sensed a shift in how we feel about hair. “For summer 2022, I think we are going to see a real mix of styles, with people thinking less about trends and more about what they feel is right for them and in turn, making style choices that suit their personality,” says hairdresser Max Andrea at Claxton Hair, Crawshawbooth.
