Kevin.murphy Re.store Repairing Cleansing Treatment, $30. 
Thanks to the green pea extract, and pineapple and papaya enzymes in this rinse-offcleansing treatment, locks are left moisturised and healthy-looking without being weighed down. Use it in place of your usual shampoo and conditioner once or twice a week.

Yves Rocher Delicate Cleansing Cream, $15.
Leaving your mane silky-smooth, this sweet-smelling, non-foaming cream has organically grown hawthorn extract to purportedly protect hair fibres, and is free of sulphates, silicones, parabens and colourants. Apply it on wet hair from root to tip, rub gently, then rinse it off . Repeat the process if you have super-dry tresses.

Shu Uemura Art of Hair Essence Absolue Nourishing Cleansing Milk, $51.36.
You probably already double-cleanse your face, why not do the same for your mane? First, massage this rich, camellia-oil-infused cleansing milk into your wet scalp, then rinse. Next, use it on both the scalp and the hair – comb through the length of your hair to ensure the product is spread evenly. Leave it on for five minutes before rinsing it off.

Percy & Reed Perfectly Perfecting Wonder Cleanse & Nourish, $44.     
This cleansing conditioner gets rid of dirt and impurities to leave hair clean but not stripped of moisture, thanks to the aloe vera and cocktail of natural plant oils in it. It also has keratin and wheat extract to condition and hydrate, leaving hair glossy and tangle-free.
