Go Glam

Lifeless and limp hair doesn't exactly fit with the festive season and with celebrity hair becoming bigger, better and bursting with body its time to lift the lid on luscious locks. What can we do to ensure your hair is the 'mane attraction' at the office party and how do we build and give body? Well ladies check out this weeks beauty blog below.

Known as the 'fixer elixir' this contains high tech ingredients that makes hair appear thicker without leaving it feeling stiff or sticky. Simply apply a coin sized amount through towel dried hair and style as normal. £18.00 from www.lulusplace.co.uk or at www.qvcuk.com

Give hair a lift with Bumble and Bumbles Thickening Spray. Although for fine hair this works on all hair types and a great one for spraying on before heat styling. Taming frizz and flyaway hair this gives a reasonable amount of hold. Section hair, spray on and blowdry. Also works well as a setting spray with velcro rollers too. £21.00 from Space NK stores.

Perfect for girls on the go, the S Factor Body Booster Plumping Spray will take you from desk to dancefloor in an instant. Use this to give root volume at any time of the day or night.
