Skincare guru Liz Earle has this season decided to reveal some very exciting news, the complexion expert only recently unveiled a brand new and innovative line at her flagship store in London. This new and exciting collection is due to hit store shelves in the Autumn and will be in the shape of an all new and exciting haircare range.

Liz Earle has created a concise collection of hair care products that feature one shampoo for all hair types along with a series of three hair caring conditioners, one has been designed for oily hair, one for normal locks and one to combat hair that is both dry and damaged. She has in turn injected all her skincare knowledge into to this particular haircare line.

Just like the Cleanse & Polish products are perfect for every skin type, the shampoo is also kind on the skin as well as the hair. Liz Earle has stated she believes ‘The scalp to be an extension of the face’.

This new range promises to reveal glossy, healthy looking locks and we are not surprised, both Liz Earle and her business partner, Kim Buckland, have been working on these various haircare products for a total of six years, finally reaching their perfect formula in 2010.

The products contains no artificial elements such as SLS, which appears as the foaming agent in many shampoo products, this particular element appears high on the irritant list and is certainly not suitable for those that suffer from eczema. Instead all the Liz Earle haircare range contains a high-tech agent in the shape of SLMI, which is created from coconuts and as well as being kind to skin it also lathers up well for a natural ingredient.

The new products are full of a variety of botanicals, which in turn add shine and nourish the hair whilst protecting coloured locks from fading.

The Botanical Shine Shampoo can be sought for a total of £7.50 and the Conditioners are also £7.50. The new range will be available from September 2010.

When it comes to hair, if you’re a get up and go kind of girl and require a no hassle great quality product that just works, Full Volume by Frederic Fekkai promises just that. After just one use the Full Volume Shampoo promises full bodied results, leaving hair both full of volume and silky soft to touch.

Both the shampoo and the condition offer a divine and refreshing aroma and each comes in an appealing custard shade. Both the shampoo and conditioner are extremely concentrated and just a small amount will create a luxurious lather. This not only provides a pleasant experience but also means the formula will last longer.

This is a good product for those who require an instant lift and the appearance of subtle volume, yet don’t wish to go to great lengths to achieve this look; the formula contains an innovative and fortifying agent which aids in achieving these results. The conditioner will leave the hair feeling smooth and healthy and these results won’t fade over time.

Both the Frederic Fekkai Shampoo and Conditioner come in an aesthetically pleasing casing with tasteful typography adorning each of the bottles, they will certainly be a welcome edition to any bathroom or shower.

Both the shampoo and conditioner are priced at £18 and each is a product of one of the most infamous names in beauty and hairstyling. You can pick up any one of the products in the Frederic Fekkai line either online or from any HQ Hair stockist.

In order to create locks that are both full of volume and life, you need to first prep the hair with a good volumising shampoo and conditioner. Following this procedure will in turn create the best results when styling the hair. There are an array of root heightening and body building products available on the market which is great, but it also makes it a difficult decision in choosing the right product for your particular hair requirements.

Toni & Guy have come up with the answer to those who suffer from extremely fine and thin hair and the good news is both the conditioner and shampoo won’t break the bank. Both the Shampoo and conditioner are priced at £5.29 and can be purchased from either the Toni & Guy salon or alternatively beauty stores that house the brand.

The Toni & Guy shampoo and conditioner products offer both height and thickness to fine limp hair. The formula is housed in a metal pump style cylinder which looks great in terms of aesthetic appearance. The shampoo offers a clear and smooth consistency in the shape of a thin gel-like formula whilst the conditioner is a lot thicker in consistency. Neither product creates much lather nor are there any apparent bubbles; however the product does leave the hair feeling extremely cleansed.

Hair is left looking volumised and full of life all day long. A bonus of this brand is that they also produce the Volume Shampoo and Conditioner in mini versions; these are great for weekend breaks and abroad and also look uber cute in the shower.

Muroto Volume haircare

This hair amplifying product boasts to leave the hair looking both healthy and glossy as well as feeling silky and smooth to touch. The volume achieved through using the Muroto range has long lasting effects and promises to keep locks lifted right through until the next wash.

The lightweight formula doesn’t require much lathering in order to take effect and the conditioner comes in the shape of a gel-like formula. Neither product is difficult to remove resulting in clean fresh hair that isn’t weighed down by product, but instead appears both silky soft and smooth. Both products are designed to add instant lift to both fine and limp hair and feature an essential ingredient which enables the hair care products to do this. The brand uses water rich in minerals that is naturally pure and is taken from 320m below sea level. This ocean water goes under the name of Depsea water and is one of the key ingredients featured in the labels skincare range.

Shu Uemeru certainly takes hair care to the extremes and even suggests those that purchase the products to apply them using the Shiatsu procedure, which involved a massaging-style process.

The Muroto Volume Amplifying Range is available from all Shu Uemura stockists and retails at a price of £21.50 for the shampoo and £29.50 for the conditioner.

Body Full Range

The salon standard products boast results that last up to 24 hours through the use of both the unique Interbond Conditioning System and the Volume Complex TM properties. Each of these elements has the ability to achieve up to 37% more impact on the hairs appearance and body

The brand poises its knowledge of science with insight from the industry’s best hair gurus and also possesses a high sense of fashion that keeps Redkin a firm favourite in hair care products.

The product promises results that leave the hair both more manageable and easier to style with added oomph. Users of this product will find they no longer need to load their locks with various products in order to create volume and style, the shampoo and conditioner will leave the hair both bouncy and with added dimensions.

The shampoo and condition don’t need to be used everyday therefore both products will last longer and the user won’t need to invest in extra styling products. These two products are able to create hair that appears alive and styled long after the first application.

The Body Full Range is available in both a shampoo and conditioner formula, the shampoo retails at £10.95 and the conditioner is available at £12.55, both products boast to add capacity and movement to each strand of hair, leaving it looking glossy and healthy.
