Hairstylist Zoe Irwin swears by these rules for keeping your hair in good condition.

From freezing temperatures in winter to sun, sea and swimming pool water in summer, our hair goes through a lot.
Not to mention all the blow-drying, straightening (or curling) and styling products we use on the daily.
It’s no wonder, then, that our locks sometimes look less than pristine, with common side effects including frizz, split ends, or general limpness.
1. Freeze dry your blow dry
If you always turn your hairdryer to the maximum heat setting, you could be damaging your strands.
“Turn down the heat on your hairdryer and improve the condition of your hair,” Irwin says.
“With a good hairdryer, like the GHD Helios, the powerful airflow means that you don’t need to rely on heat for drying your hair, the power itself is enough.
To finish, hold the ‘cool shot’ button down for a blast of reviving cold air, she adds: “Always flash cool each section of your hair and dry with a round bristle brush to add moisture and shine.”
6. Gently does it
“When hair is wet it is fragile and vulnerable to breakage so brush wet hair very gently,” Irwin advises.
“Use a wide tooth comb like the GHD Detangling Comb (£8.50/AED40.50). The wide tooth design allows for delicate detangling on damp hair which is fragile and more prone to damage.”
GHD Helios hairdryer, £159/AED757.61, is available in salons now and on the GHD website from February 17.
