Although many of us are pinching the pennies in the aftermath of the recession, some indulgent items are worth splashing the cash on - such as Kerastase shampoo.

This is according to Sarah Wexler, writing for Allure.

She claimed that while she tries to be beauty budget conscious, she will always think that the product is "worth the money".

Other luxury buys which Ms Wexler said were good bang for her buck include a special oil-free moisturiser which works well with her problem skin and special hair serum to fight the frizz.

When purchasing fashion or beauty items, it can be difficult to decide how much money to spend - but something that works beautifully with your hair type and costs a bit more could be a better choice than a cheaper, generic product.

Why not try some different items out and see which agrees with your tresses the most?
