The Products We’re Packing for Our Next Holiday

Jet-setting soon? Don’t let your hair pay the price.

Whether you’re heading off for a sun-soaked beach break or a chilly mountain escape, one thing’s for sure: your hair still needs a little TLC while you’re away. And no—those tiny hotel bottles just aren’t going to cut it.

Here’s exactly what we’re throwing in our suitcase (and why these travel-friendly heroes are non-negotiables).

 

1. The Leave-In That Does It All

Kérastase Elixir Ultime Hair Oil
This iconic hair oil is your passport to polished, healthy-looking hair—no matter the climate. It softens, protects, smooths, and adds shine with just a few drops. Whether you’re dealing with frizz from humidity, dryness from sun exposure, or just want your hair to smell amazing, this one’s a no-brainer.

💡 Pro tip: Apply it to dry hair before flying for extra protection and less static.

🧳 Why it should be in your bag:

  • Shields against humidity and dryness
  • Multi-use: pre-blow dry, post-swim, or day-to-day styling
  • Now in sleek, refillable packaging

2. A Luxe Mini Shampoo & Conditioner Duo

Oribe Gold Lust Repair & Restore Travel Set
This set is pure indulgence—and your hair will thank you for it. Gold Lust works wonders on stressed-out strands, especially after sun, chlorine or heat exposure. The mini sizes are perfect for your toiletry bag without compromising on quality.

💡 Pro tip: A little goes a long way—these minis can last your whole trip.

🧳 Why it should be in your bag:

  • Gently cleanses and deeply restores
  • Sulphate-free and colour-safe
  • Smells like a luxury resort in a bottle

3. The Pre-Pool + Post-Flight Fix

Color Wow Dream Filter Pre-Shampoo Mineral Remover
Holiday water is unpredictable—think mineral-heavy hotel water or chlorine-filled pools. This pre-shampoo spray lifts out the minerals and metals that dull your colour, especially blondes. Use it before your first wash to detox and refresh your hair after travel.

💡 Pro tip: Spray onto dry hair before shampooing, wait 3 minutes, and rinse—easy!

🧳 Why it should be in your bag:

·       Brightens blonde and colour-treated hair

  • Restores shine and bounce
  • Helps prevent brassiness from pool or tap water

 4. The Scalp Saviour

Kérastase Symbiose Micro-Peeling Cellulaire
Let’s be honest, our scalp gets a little neglected while we’re travelling. This gentle exfoliating scrub removes buildup from sunscreen, salt, sweat and dry shampoo, leaving your scalp balanced and refreshed.

💡 Pro tip: Use it once mid-trip to press reset on your roots and avoid that greasy-hair slump.

🧳 Why it should be in your bag:

  • Refreshes the scalp without stripping
  • Leaves hair feeling light and lifted
  • Smells spa-level divine

5. The Cordless Styling Game-Changer

GHD Unplugged Cordless Hair Straightener
No power outlet? No problem. The GHD Unplugged is a dream for last-minute styling on the plane, in the car, or before dinner. It charges via USB-C and heats up fast, so you can smooth out frizz or create waves no matter where you are.

💡 Pro tip: Keep it in your handbag or beach tote for on-the-go touch-ups.

🧳 Why it should be in your bag:

·       Cordless + compact

  • Perfect for taming holiday frizz
  • Customs-safe for carry-on

🧳 Why it’s in our bag:

  • Gentle on holiday-tangled hair
  • Compact and protective
  • Works on all hair types
