We've all done it...

Been in a rush, clambered out of the shower and grabbed the nearest (clean enough) towel to wrap up our sopping locks without much thought. But what if there was a way to make the hair drying process quicker and easier - and it all boiled down to the towel..

. That's where haircare brand STRAAND comes in, with a whole range that treats hair and scalp health as top priority, they say it's time to stop neglecting the skin on your head and embrace a new beauty routine that makes you feel good from root to tip. As someone with coloured hair, I'm often trying to treat my dry hair, whilst finding the right balance between a moisturised and greasy scalp, so when STRAAND got in touch to sample the range, I jumped at the chance.

On first impressions, STRAAND has nailed its branding, a beautiful cloud print box landed on my doorstep and I couldn't wait to unveil the goodies inside. All of the products look stylish and well-packaged, with sky blue and STRAAND's signature pops of bright orange. I received the blue XL Satin Scrunchie (£8) – which, with its silky texture, promises to protect against breakage.

As a big fan of the revival of the scrunchie we've been witnessing over the past few years, I couldn't wait to get this in my hair. I found it to be tight enough so that it didn't need to be wrapped around more than twice and had a decent hold, whilst being comfortable and the soft material meant my hair wasn't pulled or snagged. Another winner for holding the h.
