Oh, the Festive Season. It’s a marvellous whirl of decorating trees, late night parties, three course lunches, and oodles of Christmas spirit. It’s also the time to totally wreck your diet with several bucketloads of mince pies, destroy your bank balance with a succession of sparkly dresses and glittering presents, and to obliterate your hair with over-styling.
Dove Hair 12 ‘dos’ of Christmas
If you’re anything like me, the 14 year old you will make a sudden surprise reappearance, and you’ll find yourself gazing into your mirror, experimenting with hairstyles that border on the ridiculous.
A lethal triple combination of Winter weather, central heating and log fires will wreak havoc on your hair anyway. But once you add the joys of back-combing, straightening, curling and styling, you’re on a road disaster, first stop Frazzled-hairville. Enter Dove, stage left. Like the twinkling fairy on top of your tree, they’re winging their way down to sort of the tangled manes of women this Christmas.
Dove – Real Women
With their campaigns featuring ‘real women’, and an ever expanding range of beauty goodies, Dove have positioned themselves as something of a saviour for womankind. Their products are gentle on the skin, effective and affordable, and their hair care range is no different. In honour of this time of year, Dove have produced a rather catchy little video based around the ’12 “dos” of Christmas’, which you can see below.
Dove Hair Care Range
We’re only a couple of weeks into the party season, and already my hair is suffering. A sudden penchant for curls created with my ultra-hot straighteners (sounds counterintuitive but works a treat) has already begun to take a toll. Oh, then there’s the Bardot-esque beehive look that I always roll out for special occasions. Uh, then I’ll probably fancy a poker straight look on Christmas day, just as an antidote to all that volume…You get the picture. Dove have got it spot on. Thankfully, they’ve got a remedy: their rather marvellous hair care range.
If you haven’t tried it yet, you really must. Try the Intensive Repair Regenerating Mask (which includes Micro Moisture Serum) for seriously damaged hair, leaving it softer, shinier and more resilient against future styling damage. I’ll be having that, then. Or maybe you’re a curl fiend, and you want to make hair glossier but without weighing it down? In which case, dip into the Nourishing Oil Care range, which will leave your hair with bounce and shine. Think I might grab some of that, too…
A spot of Heat Defence Mist will see you through the endless rounds of straightening and curling you’ll be embarking on, and the Dove Intensive Repair Overnight Creme offers maximum results for minimum effort. Just slather on before bedtime, and wake up to softer, stronger hair. Prices start from around £2.29, or 99p for the mini sizes (perfect if you’ve got any house parties lasting over the weekend, or if you’re travelling to relatives over Christmas).
Put your trust in Dove and they’ll sort your hair out. At this time of year, we all want to look the best we can, but in the shortest amount of time. Dove’s easy solutions are perfect for that very purpose. So go on! Pick up a present for yourself after all of that endless Christmas shopping!
