These are the products our team reach for every day in the salon, the ones we know inside out and love recommending to our clients. From everyday essentials to clever little problem-solvers, we'll tell you what we like about them, who they're good for and how to get the best out of them.
Just good advice from people who know their stuff.
Why I rate it: KEVIN.MURPHY FLAWLESS
Ross Garcia on the everyday styling product that does a little bit of everything.
There are loads of styling products out there promising different things, but what I really like about KEVIN.MURPHY FLAWLESS is that it's a bit of a one-stop shop.
It's a six-in-one bond-building styling lotion that strengthens, smooths, repairs, adds shine, protects against heat AND helps you style your hair. That's quite a lot for one product, and it's what makes it such a useful addition to your everyday routine.
What makes it different?
For me, one of the biggest benefits is the bond-building technology. You'll probably have heard a lot about bond repair in hair products recently. Essentially, it's about helping to rebuild and strengthen the bonds within the hair, reducing damage and improving its condition. FLAWLESS also provides heat protection up to 232°C which is particularly useful if you're regularly blow-drying or using heated styling tools. People want everything from their hair products, they want to use high temperatures, get a great finish and still expect their hair to look and feel healthy. This gives you a much better chance of achieving that.
How I use it
It's really simple. I work through damp hair before blow-drying as normal, then let the product do the work. It's not too heavy, which I really like. You get a lovely clean, glossy finish with a little bit of hold, without the hair feeling overloaded. It's especially useful during the winter when you're blow-drying more regularly and your hair can need a bit of extra care.
Who would I recommend it to?
If you're looking for a strong styling product with lots of hold, this probably isn't the one. It's not a full-on mousse or something that's going to give you a really structured style. But if you want soft, natural-looking hair with shine, reduced frizz, a little control and the added benefits of protection and repair, it's a great all-rounder. It answers so many of the questions clients ask me - How can I get more shine? How can I protect my hair from heat? What can I use to style my hair without weighing it down?
And that's why I really like it. So much in one product, without having to complicate your routine.
