Hair Obsessed? 10 NEW Products You Need to Know About Now.
/I'm pretty much hair obsessed and always in search of the *new* best thing to give me a great hair day. I have been trying SO many new hair products over the past month or so becasue there have been so many new hair launches as of late, and I have made quite a few great discoveries. If you are as obsessed with your hair as I am, then you are going to want to try some of these new products. Here are 10 of my latest hair product obsessions.
1. L'Oréal Paris Root Cover Up
I'm always looking for the easiest way to hide my grays in between salon appointments and this is my latest find. In just three seconds my grays are not only hidden, they are covered until I wash out the innovative formula that doesn't rub off or smudge either. It matches my hair perfectly and comes in six shades to match most hair colors: Light to Medium Brown, Dark Brown, Light to Medium Blonde, Dark Blonde and Red Black. Buy it for $10.99 at your favorite drugstore or mass retailer like Target or Walgreens.
2. Dove Advanced Hair Series Serum-In-Oil
This unique serum-in-oil instantly rescues dry, damaged. Just three or four pumps into freshly washed hair provides a ton of smoothness with it's potent formula. My hair is left super soft and shiny while still staying manageable. I also like using one pump into my dry hair to manage flyaway's and static which seem to be out of control this time of year. Buy it for $5.99 at your favorite drugstore or mass retailer like Target, Walgreens or drugstore.com.
3. Alterna Caviar Moisture Intense Collection
My hair has been super dry this winter so it has been enjoying this new collection that features an innovative Moisture Intense Caviar Oil Crème Pre-Shampoo Treatment that helps the moisturizing agents in the shampoo and conditioner work better. My hair is proof that it works. The shampoo and conditioner are oil based so they work for those with severely dry hair so that it is left silky soft after just one use. I only have to use it a few times a week. Buy Alterna Haircare Moisture Intense Caviar Oil Crème Shampoo and Alterna Haircare Moisture Intense Caviar Oil Crème Conditioner at alternahaircare, Sephora, Nordstrom, Ulta and fine salons.
4. L'Oréal Paris EverPure Cleansing Balm
I don't think I have expressed my love for cleansing conditioners enough and this new large size EverPure Cleansing Balm is my latest obsession two-in-one for gentle daily hair maintenance. This hair cleanser replaces your regular shampoo and conditioner as it gently cleanses the scalp and deep conditions the hair without weighing it down. It's a low-lather formula that takes getting use to, but once you do, you will be just as obsessed as I am. This cleanser with pure botanical ingredients banishes dirt and oil from the hair without stripping strands. It's free of sulfates, silicones and dyes so it's ultra gentle for color-treated and processed hair. There is also a version for curls called EverCurl Cleansing Balm and one for damaged or dry hair called EverCrème Cleansing Balm. Each bottle has enough for 32 washes. Buy it for $11.99 at your favorite drugstore or mass retailer such as Target.
5. Kérastase Elixir Ultime Volume Beautifying Oil Mist
I have a lot of hair but it is fine. I'm always looking for products to add volume and shine to it without weighing it down. It's been a struggle until now that I've discovered this oil mist that is the brands first bi-phase oil. I knew it would be winner — it is Kérastase. The brand uses a very specific technology that actually expands hair’s thickness by amplifying the diameter of each individual hair strand. It does that and combines with the carrier oils in the Oleo-Complexe to bring on superior shine and softness. All it takes is three or four mists over wet hair and voilà! Buy it for $58 at Kerastase-USA.com.
6. Dove Regenerative Nourishment Shampoo & Conditioner
For when hair is really dry or if your hair is damaged, this newer shampoo and conditioner offers a ton of nourishment deep down. Made with Red Algae + Keratin NutriComplex, this duo goes beyond repairing damage, it works to nourish the hair where it is needed most. Damaged hair is made stronger as it is further protected. When using, hair is simply looking healthier too. Buy it for $4.99 each at your favorite drugstore or mass retailer like Target.
7. Clairol Nice ‘n Easy Born Red Collection
If you've ever thought about going red, now is a great time because red hair is on trend and it can work with any skin tone if you choose the correct shade. With Clairol's new Born Red Collection from Nice 'n Easy, there is literally the perfect red for everyone. With nine naturally vibrant shades that look very natural, there is one in the line up for you. What I love about Nice 'n Easy is the technology — Clairol has developed a unique Color Blend Technology that ensures natural-looking color with rich tones and highlights in one simple step. I'm thinking about going richer and trying Natural Reddish Blonde. See all of the shades here. Buy it for $7.99 at your favorite drugstore or mass retailer like drugstore.com.
8. L'Oréal Paris Advanced Haircare Extraordinary Oil Curls Collection
Curly girls take note, this new collection of products was made for you and me, part of the year. You wouldn't know it, but my hair has a lot of natural curl to it. When it gets at all humid out, my hair curls up and I need to manage it, because it becomes unruly and dry the second I try to put a hoot tool on it. Designed specifically with the needs of curly haired women in mind, this collection includes oils to nourish, replenish and define curls: Amla, Coconut, Soja, Sunflower, Rose and Flax Oil. The line-up includes an Extraordinary Oil Curls Nourishing Shampoo & Conditioner along with Extraordinary Oil Curls Re-Nutrition Mask. I'm addicted to the mask (even though I'm not in curly season). It just leaves my hair so soft and shiny — somewhat bouncy too. The shampoo and conditioner sell for $4.99 each while the mask sells for $6.99. Buy them at your favorite drugstore or mass retailer.
9. StriVectin Hair
The brand so popular for their anti-aging products has now branched off to include haircare and I'm excited about it. I picked up the Ultimate Restore Starter Trio to try out and I was super impressed. Made for thinning hair, this trio included a Shampoo, Conditioner and Mask that all work together to help reduce the breakage of thinning hair. My hair felt very nourished and looked salon fresh when using. I didn't use it long enough to tell if it repaired breakage but it is something I would buy again. I do want to try the other products which include products for volume and products for color-treated hair. Buy it from Sephora and Ulta.
10. Alterna Haircare Bamboo Style Anti-Static Translucent Dry Conditioning Finishing Spray
I don't know about you, but my hair is full of static and flyaways all winter long and I cannot stand it! This hair spray has been my savior! Not only does it offer a nice medium hold that can be brushed out and re-styled, but it actually gets rid of static and flyaways. It does so by locking moisture into the cuticle — so smart! Buy it for $18 at Sephora.
