Hair perfumes may be the beauty product you never knew you needed. After all, doesn't a normal perfume just do the same thing if spritzed into the hair?! Well, not exactly. While they will deliver a hit of scent, most regular fragrances often include high percentages of alcohol which can be drying if sprayed into hair.

Hair perfumes, on the other hand, are formulated specifically to spray onto hair, so they come with added benefits of delivering moisturise, reducing static and adding shine, all while leaving behind a gorgeous trail that surrounds your hair in a scented a halo. Good, right?

In short, they're great little multitaskers and are a clever way to get a fix of your favourite perfume, and often in a slightly more affordable way. It's no wonder hair perfumes are now becoming one of our favourite ways to wear a scent.

Hair perfumes, also known as hair mists, are a great alternative to traditional perfumes, as they are formulated to be lighter and more subtle, making them perfect for everyday wear and spritzing for a refresh throughout the day.

Not only do they deliver a hit of your favourite scent, they're also a clever way to keep your hair smelling fresh and clean. They work to neutralise any unpleasant odours, like post gym strands when there's no time to wash your hair. They can also combat exposure to environmental scents such as pollution, smoke. Or, they're a beautiful way to introduce your fragrance in a more lasting (and gentle) way, since fragrance sticks around for longer in hair than it can last on your body.
