I take my hair routine very seriously. I’ve been on quite the journey over the last few yeads: lost a lot of hair, chopped it off, regrew it. Now, I’m hyper-focused on keeping it healthy and as strong as possible. It’s on the finer, thinner, flatter side of things, so preventing breakage—while also refusing to give up heat styling and color—is a capital-C challenge. The good news! I’ve found a handful of incredible hair brands and products that keep my hair shiny and healthy. My top drafts: RŌZ, Crown Affair, Oribe, Davines, and, of course, Ouai.
I’ve genuinely tried every single product in the line, from the shampoos and conditioners to styling products and fragrance mists. What I’ve realized: the brand is one of the few that takes into account that different hair types need different kinds of TLC. Their fine hair collection gives me max volume and hydration (a difficult balance to achieve), and their styling products are versatile (as long as I use less product, I don’t get weighed down or look greasy). They also have a handful of repair and maintenance products that are 10/10 for hair health. Case in point: the brand new Bond Builder, which seals my split ends, gives me shine, and repairs damage in just three minutes.
