Essential Hair Products You Need For The Dry Air
If your hair tends to get frizzy in the dry air, you’ll need some extra moisturization to protect your locks and keep your hair looking healthy and fresh. This list was specifically curated for those dry air hair days. Check out these essential products you need to keep your hair hydrated and safe!
Olaplex No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask
Olaplex’s moisture mask is a product that is worth every cent of your money! The moisture mask is good for any hair type, but you’ll particularly notice changes if your hair tends to be on the dry, frizzy side. This hair mask can be used in the shower after you shampoo your hair. Leave the mask on for 10 minutes, then rinse it off afterwards. You’ll notice that your hair is looking incredibly healthy and shiny, as well as moisturized and hydrated! The mask works by penetrating hair cuticles with an intense treatment that is also beneficial for damaged ends.
Soulfood Nourishing Mask
Our next hair product for dry hair is the nourishing hair mask from Soulfood. This hair mask is a favorite among Sephora shoppers, and its formula consists of jojoba seed oil that includes vitamins A, D, and E. Along with this, the formula consists of omega 7 which is a fatty acid that works to penetrate the cuticles and give your hair the nourishing moisturization it needs. You can use this hair mask for every shower session as a conditioner if your hair is particularly damaged or dry, or you can use the mask once a week for intensive treatment. Leave the mask on in the shower for about 5-7 minutes, then rinse and enjoy your shine!
Gisou Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioner
Okay, so maybe you don’t have time to wash your hair, but you still need a way to keep your hair hydrated. Try Gisou’s honey leave-in conditioner! The leave-in spray was created with meticulously healthy and nourishing formulas, such as argan oil, mirsalehi honey (which includes vitamins and antioxidants), and baobab extract (curated to protect your hair from the heat). While you can give your hair a spray with this product when it’s perfectly dry, you can also use this leave-in conditioner on moist hair right after a shower for extra protection.
Miss Jessie’s Baby Buttermilk Curl Enhancer
Target is the holy grail of affordable beauty products, and Miss Jessie’s curl enhancer is no exception! If you’ve got curly hair that tends to get dry, you need to snatch this product up. Free of sulfates and dyes, the curl enhancer is designed to help detangle your hair and leave it moisturized “without the greasy residue.” You can use this for those extra knots, or you can simply run it through your hair when it’s feeling extra frizzy. This product will have your hair looking and feeling shiny, lightweight, and smooth.
Maui Moisture Coconut Milk Weightless Oil Mist
This daily oil mist from Maui is free from silicone and sulfates and is perfectly safe for any hair color or type! This oil mist can be used on a daily basis after showers. Just spray the mist onto your damp hair, then let it air dry (or blow dry it) to make the most out of the product! You can also spray the mist onto your dry hair to lock in that extra moisture. This product includes coconut milk, mango butter, and guava oil, so aside from its amazing benefits, it will have your hair smelling heavenly.
CURLÄ Hair Oil
This custom hair oil from CURLÄ allows you to choose the focus points you want to work on (such as hair growth or preventing dryness) along with the types of oils you’d like (such as lightweight oils for styling or heavier oils for conditioning). This product is unique in the sense that you can customize it according to your hair preferences, really making it your own! Created with various oils, from jojoba oil to mongongo oil, this product is perfect for curls but is also gentle enough for any hair type. You can use this product on either damp or dry hair, and it’ll leave your locks feeling healthier than ever.
Sun Bum Hair Mask
If you’re someone who tends to dye your hair a lot, this revitalizing hair mask from Sun Bum should go straight to your wish list. Specifically designed with banana pulp and sunflower seed oil, this hair mask can be used daily, or just once a week if need be. You can use the mask in the shower after you shampoo your hair and leave it on for around 5-10 minutes. This mask will help penetrate those problem areas to keep your hair extra moisturized, hydrated, and shinier than ever. You’ll definitely want to use this hair mask if your hair has been damaged in any form.
K18 Leave-In Molecular Repair Mask
The difference between the K18 leave-in repair mask and the other masks on this list is that you aren’t going to rinse this mask out – you’re going to leave it in your hair. This mask is an intensive treatment that works particularly well for hair that has been bleached or damaged, allowing your hair to get back to that gorgeous bounce and shine. To use this mask, you’re going to shower and shampoo your hair, but you’re not going to condition it. Once you exit the shower, apply the mask to your damp hair, let it sit for at least 4 minutes, then style it like you normally would! If your hair is extremely dry and damaged beyond repair, you’ll want to try this product out.
Moisture Rich Hair Butter Cream
Including ingredients like aloe vera, cocoa butter, and castor oil, this moisture rich hair butter cream from BrownButterBeauty on Etsy is perfect for your curly locks. This product is unique and versatile in the sense that you can use it on your dry hair for an extra moisturization boost, or you can use it as a hair mask in the shower. This cream will leave your curls feeling extra defined as well as smooth and moisturized. Make the most out of your gorgeous curly hair by trying this product out!
