    28 Hair Products With Before-And-After Photos That'll Convince You To Change Up Your Whole Routine

    Give your mane a makeover with these products reviewers are absolutely raving about.

    1. A L'Oreal *eight-second* lamellar water rinse-out treatment because you don't need to drop half your paycheck at the salon to get a treatment that will make your hair look shiny, moisturized, and strong.

    2. A Revlon hot air brush magically designed to dry and style hair with just a few passes. It'll create bouncy, shiny hair in about a quarter of the time it would take with a traditional blow-dryer and round brush.

    3. A bottle of sulfate-free Biotin shampoo infused with botanical extracts that work to thicken and hydrate your hair. It's also a clarifying shampoo, which means it will get rid of any product buildup on your scalp.

    4. An anti-dandruff shampoo if you're sick and tired of finding little flakes of your scalp on your shoulders. Also, people with dandruff know how dang itchy the problem is, and this is formulated to keep those scalp scratchies at bay.

    5. A set of flexible curling rods for anyone who loves the look hot rollers give you but hate how bulky and uncomfortable they can be. These are easy to put in, provide long-lasting, bouncy curls, and they're so comfortable, you could even wear them to sleep.

    6. A deep-conditioning hair mask if you can practically hear your hair whispering to you, "Help me! I'm dry and damaged!" Just put this super-hydrating mask on your hair for 5 to 10 minutes after shampooing, and you'll come out of the shower with smoother, healthier, and frizz-free locks.

    7. A 2-in-1 ionic hair straightener brush that'll transform even the curliest of strands into frizz-free straight locks. Reviewers say this cuts down on their straightening time drastically, which is essential on busy mornings!

    8. Or this HSI Professional hair straightener — it will create silky smooth tresses that stay straight even after a long, humid day.

    9. The Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3 treatment to repair damaged hair and broken bonds, which helps transform your dry, frizzy hair into the smooth, silky, luxurious locks you know they can be. Reviewers have said it also works great on healing overprocessed, color-treated hair.

    10. These hair extensions for the days you'd love to change up your look but don't want to pay big bucks at the salon for professional extensions. Get ready to wow your friends with your newly long, luscious locks!

    11. Or these clip-in extensions designed for textured hair. They're made from 100% human hair, so not only will they look very natural, but you can also style them with the exact same products you use regularly!

    12. Bread Beauty Supply Elastic Bounce Cream to restore the springiness to your curls, even if you've been struggling with dry, frizzy hair. You'll be amazed at how much definition and texture your locks will have!

    15. Living Proof Dry Volume Blast if you want to create a blowout look but don't have time to wash, dry, and style your hair. This works very similarly to dry shampoo — just spray at your roots, tousle your hair around, and bam! You've now got gravity-defying hair even Dolly Parton would be proud of.

    16. A hair finishing stick for anyone always fighting to get those unruly wisps of hair at the nape of your neck to behave whenever you pull your hair up.

    17. Or an edge control gel to lay your edges with ease — and without any flaking or residue other gels can leave behind.

    18. A lightweight multipurpose oil infused with natural ingredients like pure coffee seed and castor oil that work to reduce frizz, fight split ends, and make your hair look healthier overall.

    23. The Gold System that comes with a shampoo, conditioner, and a styling creme — it's basically your entire hair care routine in one set. What could be easier?!

    25. Or this color depositing shampoo if you'd rather just try out a new color instead of committing to it through a hair dye. And if you end up really liking the color, you can use the shampoo on a regular basis to keep the color looking bright!
