If you like the sound of a hair care brand with a basis in scalp health and science, approved by Audrey Hepburn, we’d like to introduce you to Philip Kingsley.

 

Founded by legendary English hairdresser Philip Kingsley, this brand is all about giving you your best hair yet. Good hair can be life-changing, they say, and this could well be the line that gives it to you. With fans ranging from Audrey Hepburn to Cate Blanchett to Laurence Olivier, you’d be in good company. If you’re interested, let’s talk about some of the best-loved Philip Kingsley products.

 

How do I use Philip Kingsley Elasticiser?

So this one is a pre-shampoo treatment. Designed for our gal Audrey, mentioned above, it adds moisture, shine and bounce to hair that’s been through the ringer (or the straightening irons, if we’re going to be more accurate). It’s best used once a week, though if your hair is really parched, you can use it more frequently.

 

First, get your hair damp. A little spray bottle is handy here. Then, distribute the Elasticizer through your hair in sections, making sure it’s evenly applied. Tie your hair up loosely, if it’s long enough to get in your way, and put on either a shower cap or a towel. It’s not the most stylish look, we know, but the warmth from your head will help the treatment work.

 

You’ll want to leave it in for at least 20 minutes, though overnight is also completely possible and great. Whenever you go get into the shower, rinse it out well, shampoo twice, and condition as normal.

 

Which Philip Kingsley products are right for me?

 

Well, that depends what kind of hair you have, and how your scalp is going. The Philip Kingsley Elasticiser is popular with just about everyone, since it offers general hydration and shine, and there is an extreme version if your hair is particularly parched or damaged.

 

For problem scalps, plagued by dandruff and itchiness, there’s the Philip Kingsley Flaky Itchy Scalp Shampoo, and its matching toner. Used together, these two will clear your skin up with pace. The Philip Kingsley anti-dandruff shampoo is also featured in our list of best anti-dandruff shampoos.

 

If it’s volume you seek, consider the Body Building Shampoo, and the conditioner that goes with it. These two will give fine hair the kind of boost it needs, while preventing breakage that would thin it further. Brilliant.

 

Just about everyone could benefit from regular use of the Philip Kingsley Daily Damage Defence Spray. It's a combination leave-in conditioner and heat protectant, and it's a winner. 

 

And for blondes, there’s the Pure Blonde Booster Shampoo and the weekly mask to go with. Brassy tones? We don’t know her.

 

What is trichology?

 

The quick and easy answer (courtesy of Philip Kingsley) is that as dermatology is to skin, trichology is to hair and the scalp. Basically, it’s all about keeping your scalp as healthy as possible, because apart from anything else, that’s going to lead to thicker, stronger, lusher hair.

Works Well

I have recently taken swimming and was scouting around for swim mask to protect my naturally grey hair. It works well, my hair feels soft, and hydrated after swimming. Had no prior expectations, but it does the job. Little pricey, but will definitely repurchase this product.

Great!

I've had this treatment sitting on my cupboard for who knows how long (honestly... maybe even 2 years...). I FINALLY pulled it out and decided to give it a go. I was skeptical. I do find having to keep it in your hair for 10-20minutes before shampooing a pain, only because I don't have a bath at the moment. I gave it a go, left it in my hair for almost 30min, shampooed it out twice (I have very fi...
