    28 Things For Anyone Who "Just Can't" With Their Hair Lately

    Some days your hair is, like, no. That's when you grab a great hair mask or a quality curler from this post.

    1. A L’Oreal hair treatment that in a mere eight seconds will bestow you with shinier, more hydrated locks. And it works for any hair type? Magic indeed!

    2. A Revlon hot air brush because it'll dry your hair, give you serious volume and shine, *and* make it look like you just stepped out of the salon. All in...minutes!

    3. A bottle of Fanola No Yellow shampoo to wash away all of those pesky brassy undertones down the shower drain! This bad boy will help rid your luscious locks, even if you have gray, platinum, blonde or highlighted hair.

    4. A cult-fave Elizavecca collagen hair mask that'll restore the health of your hair and assist with annoying frizziness, oil control, damaged hair, basically everything! It's lightweight too so no heavy ingredients involved. HUZZAH!

    5. A bottle of water-resistant L'Oréal root cover-up spray for those days when you don't feel like spending $$$ at the salon but your roots are ready to say HELLO.

    6. A thickening shampoo ideal to use on fine and thin hair because it'll work tirelessly to give you body and volume while remaining lightweight. I use this on my fine hair and absolutely love it (and how it smells!).

    7. An anti-dandruff shampoo formulated with Ketoconazole 1% because does anyone really like an itchy scalp? Nope. Using this will help keep your dandruff at bay, meaning a very happy scalp!

    8. A set of large matte hair claw clips strong enough to hold even the thickest of hair, hold thin hair effortlessly, and even if your hair's in a messy bun, the clip will make it look chic!

    9. A detangling brush that'll actually have you looking forward to brushing your hair. It has over 20,000 5-star reviews on Amazon so you *know* it's good. People swear by it for detangling fast without damaging hair.

    10. A tapered ceramic Remington Pro curling wand to get those lovely curls you've been pinning on your "Hair Goals" Pinterest board. This is great if you've never figured out how to use those pesky clamps on curling rods. Ugh, the worst.

    11. A ~magical~ iridescent mermaid scrunchie that'll make even the plainest of ponytails look absolutely ✨ ethereal ✨. You can even leave it on your wrist as a pretty accessory too!

    12. Orrrrr these bow knot hair scrunchies for when you want to look flirty, thirty, and thriving.

    13. A scalp detox to cleanse moisturize, and soothe your scalp thanks to the botanical oils like moringa and amaranth. It also has Basil and baobab oil that'll nourish and promote hair growth, *and* protect against environmental damage. A healthy scalp = happy hair!

    14. A Briogeo conditioning hair mask because it'll help improve the long-term health of your damaged, over-processed hair courtesy of its 97% naturally derived formula. We're talking rosehip oil, algae, and B vitamins to nourish your locks with nutrients and essential hydration.

    15. A bottle of hair-building fibers for times you need an instant fix. This is great for anyone experiencing thinning, has any hair loss due to any stress or medical conditions, or just someone who wants to make their scalp look a little fuller.

    16. A hair finishing stick to smooth those annoying flyaways and baby hairs in literal seconds so you won't have to deal with them having a mind of their own.

    17. OR an edge control gel that'll do the same thing for your edges and baby hairs without flaking or residue.

    18. A cute INH Hair messy bun so you can finally achieve that effortless look you've been trying but realize you just don't have enough hair for it. Every time I try I look like I have a tiny plum on my head. This adds so much volume, especially if you have thin hair, like me! Aaaand if you want to take it a step further, these space buns are ~out of this world~.

    19. Flexible foam rods that'll have you, quite literally, saying "I woke up like this" when you remove them. Pop these in overnight and watch the luscious curls frame your face the next morning.

    20. An automatic ceramic curling iron perfect for anyone who wants to curl their hair, but regular wands and irons seem really intimidating. It basically does all the work for you!

    21. A shower brush (this is Tracee Ellis Ross' haircare line!!) designed to be used to comb conditioner through your strands in the shower so you can reeeally get it all in there. Sometimes fingers just don't cut it. This particularly helps curly- and coily-haired folks style, detangle, and gently work your products through wet hair.

    22. A satin-lined sleeping cap so you can protect your natural hair while sleeping or lounging with some serious breathability. It's even cute enough to wear out too if you're not feeling like putting in more effort one day. Did I mention it's adjustable?!

    23. Adorable mini wave barrettes that'll boast a lovely retro and summery pop of color on your head with all of your hairstyles. Bonus: they also photograph really well, so the 'gram is waiting!

    25. A cold-processed Scalp Renew hair treatment that'll gently exfoliate and encourage cellular turnover to your hair with salicylic acid, has peppermint oil to provide relief from inflammation, stimulate blood flow and scalp microcirculation, *and* works hard to support healthy hair growth. Whew, that's a mouthful!

    28. And finally, a bottle of Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3 because if you haven't used this holy grail product yet, you are missing out. It reduces breakage, keeps your locks from losing moisture, and repairs and protects the bonds that make up your hair structure. It's basically a go-to for anyone who wants to see their hair at their best. i.e all of us!
