For Unruly Bangs

Kristin Ess Instant Lift Volumizing Mousse

Kristin-Ess-Hair-Instant-Lift-Volumizing-Mousse Mousse has been making a comeback, and we’re here for it. This version is nothing like the tacky, sticky stuff you might remember from back in the day. Work a golf ball-sized amount into your roots for an insane bounce that’ll last all day long.

For Limp Locks

To Strengthen and Lengthen

Pureology Strength Cure Split End Salve Treatment

Pureology_Strength_Cure_Split_End_Salve_50ml_1398857363 If your split ends are starting to sprout their own split ends (don’t judge, we’ve all been there), then you need something heavy-duty. This stuff smoothes ’em so they’re less noticeable between trims.

For Split Ends

Redken Shine Flash 02

For Dull, Lackluster Hair

Scruples Platinum Shine Brightening Shampoo

We know that the biggest struggle between sessions is stamping out brassy orange hues or getting rid of yellow tints that plague your grays. But not all purple shampoos are made equally — this one contains chamomile extract and sea kelp extract for added shine. And it beats brass like a BOSS, obvi.
