If you’re looking to revive dry, dull hair, you need this rinse-out treatment. The clean formula features moisturizing agents and amino acids that’ll moisturize and replenish damaged hair strands leaving your hair shinier and softer than before. It’s also weightless and free of silicones. We love it because from the very first treatment you’ll be able to notice a difference.

When we got the chance to quiz hairstylist to the stars, Linda Flowers, who’s worked with Selena Gomez, Gal Gadot, and Billie Eilish, she revealed the Hask Argan Oil Repairing Shine Oil, $6, is a must-have for instant repair. “It has a lightweight formula that absorbs instantly and restores a natural, beautiful shine – without any oily or greasy residue,” she says. We love it, too!

Formulated with castor oil, fair trade coconut oil, aloe vera, comfrey, and arnica, this gel adds definition to your curls without leaving a greasy or crunchy residue like other gels can. Instead, it’ll add a glossy shine and provide the ideal amount of slip for finger styling, twist-outs, and braids. We also have to mention that it smells divine.
