Whether you're dealing with frizz, dryness, or lifeless strands, the secret to good hair days every day starts with a solid hair care routine. At Oz Hair & Beauty, we know how important it is to feel confident in your hair — and we're here to help you get there with these 5 easy, expert-approved tips for keeping your hair strong, shiny, and healthy, no matter the season.
1. Start With a Sulphate-Free Shampoo
Harsh sulphates can strip your hair of its natural oils, leaving it dry and prone to breakage. Opt for a gentle, sulphate-free shampoo like Pureology Hydrate Shampoo or Davines OI Shampoo — both nourish while cleansing, and they're colour-safe too. Your scalp (and ends) will thank you.
2. Don't Skip the Conditioner
It sounds basic, but skipping conditioner is one of the biggest mistakes people make. Conditioner helps seal the hair cuticle, smooth frizz, and lock in moisture. For dry or damaged hair, try Olaplex No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner — a cult favourite for a reason.
Pro tip: Apply conditioner mid-length to ends, not on your roots, to avoid weighing your hair down.
3. Use a Hair Mask Weekly
Hair masks are your best friend for deep hydration and repair. Whether you're dealing with damage from heat tools or colour treatments, a weekly treatment like Kérastase Nutritive Masquintense can restore softness and shine. Apply on damp hair and leave it in for 5–10 minutes for best results.
4. Protect Before You Style
Before picking up that straightener or curling wand, always use a heat protectant spray. It forms a barrier between your hair and high temperatures, reducing breakage and split ends. We love ghd Bodyguard Heat Protect Spray for everyday styling — lightweight, effective, and smells amazing.
5. Trim Regularly (Yes, Really)
Even if you're growing your hair, regular trims every 6–8 weeks can prevent split ends from traveling up the hair shaft. It might feel counterintuitive, but trimming can actually help your hair grow longer, stronger, and healthier over time.
Bonus Tip: Treat Your Hair Like Your Skin
Think of your hair care routine like your skincare. Cleanse, hydrate, protect — and invest in quality products tailored to your hair type. At Oz Hair & Beauty, we stock the best in salon-quality hair care, so you can build a routine that works for you.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know which shampoo is right for my hair type?
A: We’ve got a helpful filter on our site so you can shop by hair concern (dryness, frizz, colour-treated, thinning, etc.). Still not sure? DM us on Instagram or reach out to our team for personalised advice!
Q: Can I use a hair mask more than once a week?
A: Absolutely! If your hair is feeling super dry or damaged, 2–3 times a week is fine. Just be sure to adjust based on how your hair feels — too much protein or moisture can also throw things off.
Q: What’s the difference between a conditioner and a hair mask?
A: Conditioners are for daily hydration and detangling, while masks are more concentrated treatments designed to deeply repair and nourish. Think of it like moisturiser vs. a weekly face mask for your skin.
Q: Do you offer Afterpay?
A: Yes! We offer Afterpay, Klarna, and other flexible payment options at checkout so you can shop now and pay later.
Q: Are your products cruelty-free?
A: Many of the brands we stock are cruelty-free and/or vegan. Look for the icons on each product page, or check out our dedicated Cruelty-Free section online.
