Have you got your hands on the May issue of ELLE yet? In it we reveal exactly what your hair needs now, from products and trends to cut and colour. Snap up your copy now, or download the iPad edition right here. Trust us, your hair will thank you for it.

Beauty Director Sophie has gone from brunette to red, which was my old colour but I’m now blonde like Beauty Assistant Joely, except she’s gone brunette (well, sort of). All will be revealed in the June issue – we’ll share our feelings on being made to dye our hair, the pitfalls of a major change and the benefits of being brave enough to take the plunge. Plus we’ll be sharing a hair diary online so you can chart our progress, because not all of us loved our new hair…
