Take A Day To Love and Appreciate Your Locks On National Hair Day

We’re always craving a good hair day and today certainly is one! It might be the weekend, but it isn’t just any other Saturday, today marks National Hair Day. Taking place on October 1st every year, this is a whole day dedicated solely towards expressing love for your hair – we can’t think of a better excuse for a self-care day!

Whether you’re sporting long locks, bouncy curls, a trendy buzzcut or a stylish bob; thick, thin, curly or wavy, this day is curated uniquely to you. Wondering how to celebrate? Take this time to trial a different hairstyle, because a new hair look has the ability to make you feel confident, powerful or in control. Or perhaps you’re wanting to treat your mane to some well-deserved love, care and affection? Book yourself an appointment at your fave salon, or maybe pop a moisturising hair mask on at home. Today could be the day to share your trusty haircare secret, whether a go-to product or sharing a style you’ve mastered; this day welcomes it all.

Fairly new to the National Day scene, this celebration was founded in 2017 as a way of showcasing your hair’s personality and sharing the tools and products that make our hair feel as beautiful and healthy as possible. Many of us think highly of our hair as it makes an impacting visual statement about us, and it may come as a surprise that this has been the case for many years throughout history. Researchers suggest people have been using combs as far back as 5500 BC, by the Ancient Egyptians, with some having even said Cleopatra used donkey’s milk to wash her hair! The hairbrush arrived a while later, with the UK’s first known hairbrush manufacturer being founded in 1777.

But enough of the history! Looking for a scrub to rejuvenate your scalp? An oil for ultimate hydration? A new wide tooth comb to add to your collection? We’re here to give you the answers to your wish list with some products to be shopping this National Hair Day!
