Spotlight on O&M Fine Intellect shampoo and conditioner




Fine tresses will love Original & Mineral’s Fine Intellect Shampoo (£30,) and the matching conditioner (£30). This duo adds volume and bounce without weighing the hair down or any stickiness. The conditioner, which contains sweet almond oil and vitamin E, not only smells lovely but left my locks feeling nice and soft.

This haircare brand has recently arrived on our shores after becoming a favourite with many hairdressers and clients at home in Australia.





Atonic Thickening Spritz


The company specialises in gentle formulations made from “naturally-derived”  ingredients with what it claims is a low-chemical philosophy that avoids  everyday chemicals” such as sulphates, parabens and triciosan.

There is also the Atonic Thickening Spritz (£19, all products mentioned available from net-a-porter.com) which is a good styling aid to add some extra oomph and it will also protect your hair while styling. This pomegranate-scented potion contains Lilly Pilly, reputed to be a native Australian antioxidant which is said to thicken the hair shaft. After using it my locks did look slightly fuller. 

If you like the so-called natural ranges, this is one that you might want to examine further.
