8 Amazing Multipurpose Hair Products
Most skincare and makeup products are formulated with layering in mind. But with hair products, the result can be crunchy, drying and even damaging. Product buildup, which is essentially a film of residue on the hair and scalp, can result in flaky powder on the surface, dehydrated locks and stunted growth. (Just like the skin on your face, the scalp also needs to breath to perform correctly).
The solution: one product that solves multiple issues. We’ve gathered double-duty miracle workers that provide both health and style benefits so you don’t need to double up on product to get your desired finish. They’re practically a perfect hair day in a bottle. Find the perfect product for you below!
Living Proof Blowout Styling & Finishing Spray ($12, livingproof.com)
The new formula actually creates grip in the hair (without feeling crunchy) so your blowout won’t budge. The other perks: it works as a heat protectant and hairspray.
Sexy Hair Soy Renewal Créme Oil ($22.95, sexyhair.com)
Made with argan oil, consider this your styler and leave-in conditioner. Not only does it speed up drying time, but it also promotes shine and protects against UV rays.
Got2b Glossy Anti-Frizz Shine Serum ($5.99, walgreens.com)
For a lighter formula, try a hair serum. This alcohol-free formula works like a leave-in conditioner to add hydration, shine and UV protection.
Marula Light Hair Treatment & Styling Oil ($46, sephora.com)
This multipurpose oil targets the hair shaft both internally and externally. Frizz is reduced through instant hydration while marula plant stem cells strengthen strands.
Drybar Sparkling Soda Shine Mist ($28, sephora.com)
Because it’s a mist, the spray is perfect for the finest of hair—adding shine, hydration (it includes camelina oil), smoothness, and UV protection. Plus, with a fragrance of amber, coconut and vanilla, you can skip perfume altogether.
Alterna Caviar CC Cream for Hair 10-in-1 Complete Correction ($39, sephora.com)
Enter the first CC cream for hair. And it pretty much does it all—protects against UV rays and hot tools, strengthens the hair shaft, moisturizes and adds shine and softness. However, because it’s a cream, those with thinner hair should use sparingly.
Schwarzkopf Satin Frizz Control & Protect ($6.97, schwarzkopf.com)
Consider this your go-to frizz fighter this summer. The formula promotes light-weight hydration and crunch-free hold that encourages silky, straight hair—even on second (or third!) day hair.
SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Hold & Shine Moisture Mist ($8.99, target.com)
Curly-haired gals are always in search of anything that’ll add shine and moisture back into ringlets. This mist not only does both, but is so light you can reapply to dry hair to tame throughout the day.
