Ever wake up to the worst hair day? It’s always the worst start to your morning. If your hair is in need of some TLC check out these 10 Hair Products That Will Completely Transform Your Look!
No matter if your hair is textured, thin, curly, wavy, straight or a combination, applying hair products designed for your hair type is essential for improving your look. Not only will they make your hair feel smoother and tamed, but also are essential for nourishing your hair when applying heat or hair dye. I’ll always remember those horrific flashbacks to straightening my hair every morning for middle school, leaving so much damage that could have easily been prevented. Using proper hair care is so important for keeping your locks healthy, even if you don’t normally use heat on it or bleach for hair dye. These 10 products are some of my top picks for keeping your natural hair healthily maintained for any time of the year!
To be honest, I don’t know what is in Olaplex products that make it so great, but I know they’re doing something right. Any Olaplex product I’ve tried has been a game changer, but my personal favorite for day to day use is the Olaplex Hair Perfector #3. This hair treatment works to reduce any breakage and visibly strengthen your hair, even after just one use. The #3 is their global best seller and works for literally all types of hair. All you need to do is apply the product to damp hair from the roots to ends around 2-3 times a week, depending on your level of damage. Olaplex products can be a little pricey, but trust me, they are so worth the cost!
If you don’t own a Wet Brush by now, stop what you’re doing and go buy one from your nearest drugstore. No brush I have used before works to smooth and detangle my extremely thick hair better than the Wet Brush brand. The super flexible bristles allow for 45% less breakage and 55% less effort, making detangling your hair easy and fast. It works on wet or dry hair, without causing your hair to poof out once done. Not to mention the brand is also a sustainable choice, with the body made from a plant-based plastic and recyclable packaging. It’s seriously time to ditch your old hairbrush and switch to a Wet Brush for overall better hair!
This Kristin Ess Hair Gloss is a must have if your hair is looking a little dull and in need of some shine, whether dyed or not. The treatment is used in the shower and is perfect for toning your hair color, while also saving you a trip to the salon. For dyed hair, closely match your hair color to the various shades listed on the website. If you are unsure, you can utilize the online in-shower gloss FAQ to correctly match your hair shade.
Everyone is in need of some dry shampoo for when you’re in-between washes and your hair starts to look and feel a little greasy. Dry shampoo is one of the fastest ways to instantly transform your look by using minimal hair products. The Living Proof Dry Shampoo is the #1 prestige dry shampoo, as it actually works to clean your hair instead of just leaving a thick layer of product as a barrier on top. It absorbs and removes any hair oil, sweat, and odor from dirty hair. This product is perfect for when you’re on the go and don’t have the time for a wash and blow dry.
The Renewing + Argan Oil of Morocco may be one of the least expensive hair products on the list, but don’t let that fool you. This hair oil works to smooth any frizz you might have with just the smallest amount of product needed. This is great if you have naturally dry hair and want to attain a freshly blow dried look, without actually putting heat on your hair. You can find this penetrating hair oil at almost any drugstore if you want to achieve a natural shine without a lot of heavy product.
If you blow dry your hair often, check out the Dryer Half Pint Small Round Brush for the ultimate salon ready look. The brush uses ionic technology that helps to reduce frizz and adds shine while styling your hair. It works for all hair types to create the perfect looking loose waves without using hair products. If you feel like your hair is looking flat when blow dried, try using this horizontally at the crown of your hair to add volume.
The Living Proof Curl Enhancer is the solution to preserving your natural curls without them getting frizzy throughout the day. This conditioning treatment is lightweight, so it won’t even feel like there’s anything in your natural hair. The worst is when you want to brush your curls but not have them frizz out, so this product works to evenly define the curls and have them looking shiny and soft all day long. This product is specifically designed for naturally wavy textured hair, so it will not make already straight hair wavy.
I couldn’t help but add another Olaplex product on the list because this is one of the best hair products for getting that silky smooth look you always want but can never perfectly achieve. A little of this product goes a long way, and the best part is it that it can be used on wet or dry hair. The product is highly concentrated and will brighten up your color in no time. It also acts as a heat protectant, so it is great to use before any heat styling up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
To anyone who is blonde out there and wants to reduce that nasty yellow tone that happens overtime, this is meant for you. This Matrix Shampoo works to banish any yellow or brassy colors, without leaving a purple residue like some other hair products for blondes. You can apply this shampoo to your wet hair and leave on for 3-5 minutes for the best results. After a few washes you’ll see an immediate difference in your hair color, letting you skip that next toning appointment you had planned.
The last hair product that you should check out is amazing for defining natural curls. The Oribe Curl Gelèe makes your curls super shiny without adding any parabens, silicones, sulfates, or sodium chloride to your hair. If your curls tend to fall out during the day, this will keep the coils in tact, while moisturizing your hair in the process.
