8 hair perfumes that will make your tresses smell *amazing*
It's the must-have product your fragrance wardrobe is missing
With necklines creeping up towards your face and sleeves coming right down to your knuckles due to the sharp change in weather, we’ve started reaching for other options to immerse ourselves in our favourite spritz. And the perfect way to do so? With a hair fragrance, of course.
3 things you need to know about hair perfume:
#1 / Is perfume bad for your hair?
We can understand why you might ask ‘can you put perfume in your hair?’, and the answer is yes, but it needs to be a specific hair perfume formula - you shouldn’t use your everyday fragrance. Hair fragrances have a lower alcohol content in their formula so they won’t dry out your locks or damage them.
#2 / How to choose a hair perfume scent
If your signature fragrance comes in a hair perfume formula as well, then layering the two can enhance your scent. But often, that’s not an option. The best way to make sure your hair perfume fragrance complements your fragrance is to stick to the same perfume family. Florals work well with other florals (try a delicate floral with a woody floral for added depth), or wear two scents that have one or two matching notes for a cohesive result.
#3 / How to perfume your hair
It’s just like spritzing your strands with a styling product. Hold your fragrance about 10cm away from the hair and spray a light mist evenly over your head.
