So Red Wine Is Good For Your Hair, Apparently

​Forget pricey shampoos or oils - apparently, the secret to great hair lies in red wine. Not quite in a glass though, if you're wondering why you don't have hair to rival K-Middy with your drinking habits...

Celebrity hairstylist John Blaine (who has worked with Dita Von Teese) told Marie Claire about the important properties hidden in our favourite tipple. His new haircare line, Vine de la Vie, contains plenty of the good stuff, and we kind of want it all.

But it's not just a clever sales tactic: there is some science to back this theory up. The red wine extract in the products contain polyphenols, which strengthen, detoxify and repair damaged hair. It'll also take away any brassy tones and leave your hair super-soft. Basically, wine cures (almost) everything - as if we didn't know that.

The range offers a shampoo, conditioner and a leave-in elixir, amongst other products. Sadly, you won't get the same effect from pouring it straight onto your hair, though, so don't try that at home after you've had a glass...
