Hair looking straggly rather than swishy? Treat your locks to these hair masks to breathe new life into dull, brittle or bleached hair

There's nothing like a hair mask to breathe life back into locks that are looking a little worse for wear, especially if you haven't been for a trim for a while. It seems like hair masks are on our minds more so than ever at the moment, with a 120 per cent rise in Google searches for ‘hair mask for damaged hair’ in the last seven days. “During the winter months, the condition of our hair can change. You often find that a change in the weather, turning the heating on and using more heat tools – due to not wanting to go out with wet hair – can have an effect on the condition of our hair. This can cause hair to dry out and in result can become brittle," says Redken and Pureology senior educator Jimmy Green.
