Bad hair days are a weekly rite of passage for a girl who’s always on the go. Whether it’s the humidity, a missed alarm or just genetics, we can all safely say we’ve been all there and struggled through that. So, if you’re in a pinch, in terms of both- time and moolah, here are my six hair saviors that’ll come to your rescue.
1. Wella Professionals EIMI Dry Me Dry Shampoo
Dry shampoo of course, is a mainstay in most handbags or bathroom shelves. This dry shampoo can resurrect even fourth day hair. Trust me, I’ve tried. Enriched with Tapioca starch that absorbs sebum and gives the hair a natural lift, you have no excuses for oily and flat hair once you bag this baddie. And the cherry on the cake? The amazing fragrance it leaves behind. Perfect for as an after-the-gym hair refresher.
2. Dot & Key Hair Sunscreen + Softening Serum
We all do our part to save our skin from the harmful effects of the sun, but what about our hair? Subject to the same wear and tear, protect your hair using this sunscreen. The formula is extremely lightweight, so you don’t have to worry about stickiness or oiliness. It also acts as a hair softening serum that fights split ends and breakages and that’s a win-win if I’ve ever seen one.
3. Amazon Series Acai Oil Treatment
Game changer alert! Recommended to me by my stylist a year ago, I have gone through three bottles in the last 12 months. It is the most lightweight oil I’ve ever used, and I find myself reaching for it every single day. It is packed with antioxidants, so it works round the clock to fight frizz, it hydrates and leaves my hair looking hella polished. It smells so divine, and TBH you don’t need to use more than a hazelnut sized amount on medium to long hair. Add this to your cart, you can thank me later.
4. Aveda Hair Thickening Tonic
One of the most disappointing things your hair can do is fall flat after having invested at least 30 minutes styling it. I too was a victim of this phenomenon until I discovered the Aveda Hair Thickening Tonic. With concentrated application around the roots, it gives a brilliant lifting effect and it is fortified with corn, which helps to hold the style in place. Spray it onto your towel-dried hair and continue styling, for a ‘do that’ll last for hours!
5. St. Botanica Moroccan Argan Hair Serum
The difference between self-styled and salon styled hair always comes down to the finish. The glossy and silky sheen that your stylist can give you is just so hard to achieve on your own. But not anymore! Two pumps of this amazing serum combed through your hair after styling is all you need for that glossy finish, we all love. The Argan in the serum will continue to hydrate your hair through the day, so you can enjoy your smooth, sleek hairdo without worrying about the frizz.
