The Innovative Hair Line

Australian haircare label Mr Smith has landed in London. The luxury unisex line is renowned Down Under for its botanical products, loaded with essential oils and free from chemical nasties. The Mr Smith volumising shampoo and conditioner are both packed with wheat protein for long-lasting bounce and shine. “The more protein in a shampoo or conditioner, the more volume,” explains creative director Freda Rossidis. “For instant root lift after washing, apply mousse to a paddle brush and work through hair, concentrating on the root area. Then dry using high heat to add instant volume.”

The Foundation by Mr Smith is also creating a buzz for its styling credentials, giving a gutsy oomph to fine hair and smoothing unruly, frizzy locks. “Apply a small amount when blow drying your hair. Tip your head upside down and use a hairdryer on a medium heat, then finish by using a soft paddle or round brush.”
