If you’re tired of having to top up your fragrance throughout the day, you need one thing: a hair perfume. It helps you smell sweet all day long and you’ll be flooded with comments like “Oo you smell nice”. And before you question why you need it, let us assure you it’s far more effective and less damaging for your hair than regular perfume. Here are all the deets plus, our fave hair fragrances.

Why You Need A Hair Perfume

Inevitably, a thought that’s probably crossed your mind is “why can’t I just spray perfume in my hair?” Well, regular fragrances typically have a high concentration of alcohol, which can dehydrate and subsequently damage the hair strand. It can also wreak havoc on dyed hair as it can cause the color to fade. As these formulas are also made specifically for the hair, they can also help add shine, hydration, and provide UV protection. It’s also ideal for third-day hair when you’re in need of a refresh. Finally, when it comes to the designer fragrance mists, they’re often a lot cheaper than their Eau du parfum counterparts. Hence why hair perfume is about to become your new BFF.

All the while helping boost keratin production and protecting the strand from becoming brittle. Plus, it’s safe to use on colored locks and it even provides UV protection so your hair color won’t fade as quickly.

Byredo is one of our favorite niche fragrance brands and we’ve also fallen in love with their hair perfume. Each perfume in the hair fragrance range matches the signature Byredo scent, including our go-to, Gypsy Water. Although we have to admit, you either love or hate this scent: It’s super earthy with base notes of amber, sandalwood, and vanilla and top notes of bergamot, juniper berries, and lemon. It’s our handbag essential.
