For Fine or Flat Hair

Fine hair can be beautiful, but it often lacks volume and body. If your strands fall flat within hours or feel lifeless even after styling, you’re not alone—this is one of the most Googled hair concerns.

💡 Why It Works:

  • Dallas Biotin Thickening Shampoo is a fan favourite because it adds structure without heaviness.

  • Formulated with biotin, saw palmetto, and pro-vitamin B5, it boosts thickness and resilience.

  • The matching Dallas Thickening Spray amps up volume at the roots while protecting against heat styling. It’s lightweight, non-sticky, and adds flexible hold that lasts all day.

✅ Pro Tips for Volume:

  • Wash with Dallas Shampoo 2–3x per week to avoid stripping your natural oils.

  • Mist Dallas Spray through damp roots, then blow dry upside down with a round brush for salon-worthy lift.

  • Add Balloon Dry Volume Spray for next-level body on no-wash days.


For Curly or Wavy Hair

Top R+Co Picks: Cassette Curl Shampoo + Ring Tone Ultra Defining Gel Crème
Search term match: “best products for curly hair,” “how to reduce frizz in curly hair,” “curl defining cream vs gel”

Managing curls can be a full-time job if you’re not using the right products. The Cassette line was made specifically for textured hair that needs hydration, frizz control, and definition—without crunch.

💡 Why It Works:

  • Cassette Curl Shampoo is sulphate-free and ultra-moisturising. It cleanses without stripping, so curls stay soft and hydrated.

  • Ring Tone Gel Crème delivers the hold of a gel with the nourishment of a curl cream. The result? Touchable definition, frizz control, and bounce for days.

  • Enriched with chia seed extract, flaxseed, and olive oil ester to support elasticity and shine.

✅ Pro Tips for Defined Curls:

  • Use a microfibre towel or cotton T-shirt to dry your hair gently—this reduces frizz.

  • Apply Ring Tone to soaking wet hair, section by section, then scrunch.

  • Diffuse on low heat with a bowl diffuser, or let air dry for softer waves.


For Coloured or Chemically Treated Hair

Top R+Co Picks: Gemstone Colour Shampoo + Conditioner
Search term match: “how to make hair colour last longer,” “best shampoo for dyed hair,” “sulfate-free colour safe shampoo”

If you’ve invested in balayage, highlights, or a bold new shade, keeping that colour vibrant is key. Colour fades faster when you use harsh shampoos, over-wash, or expose your hair to heat and sun without protection.

💡 Why It Works:

  • Gemstone Shampoo + Conditioner are safe for all hair colours and work to extend vibrancy between salon appointments.

  • Contains hibiscus flower extract, rice seed protein, and sweet almond oil to strengthen damaged strands while protecting pigment.

  • Lightweight enough for daily use but nourishing enough for colour-stressed hair.

✅ Pro Tips to Preserve Colour:

  • Wash with Gemstone only 2–3x per week.

  • Rinse hair in cool water to help seal the cuticle and lock in colour.

  • Pair with High Dive Moisture + Shine Crème to combat dryness and boost shine.


For Oily Scalp and Buildup

Top R+Co Picks: Spiritualized Dry Shampoo Mist + Crown Scalp Scrub
Search term match: “how to fix oily scalp,” “dry shampoo for fine hair,” “scalp scrub benefits”

Struggling with greasy roots 24 hours after washing? Or does your scalp feel itchy, flaky, or clogged with product? These are signs it’s time to detox.

💡 Why It Works:

  • Spiritualized Dry Shampoo Mist is unlike anything else—it uses micellar water technology to cleanse the scalp without leaving powdery residue. It’s ideal for oily scalps and even works after workouts.

  • Crown Scalp Scrub is a deep-clean treatment that unclogs pores and removes dead skin and product buildup. Powered by salicylic acid, kaolin, and tea tree oil, it soothes irritation while exfoliating.

✅ Pro Tips for a Clean, Healthy Scalp:

  • Use Crown Scalp Scrub once a week in the shower before shampooing.

  • Mist Spiritualized at the roots on dry hair between washes to stay refreshed and balanced.

  • Avoid over-washing, which can trigger even more oil production.
