Yearning for a head full of thick, healthy, shiny hair? With the right hair products, that dream is not too far off!

1. The right shampoo and conditioner

Not just any run-of-the-mill shampoo and conditioner will do-it must be specifically suited to your hair type. There’s a variety to choose from: super straight, nourishing, moisturizing, anti-frizz. The list just goes on and on. If you’re overwhelmed by the sensory overload of information, know that you’re not alone. It all comes down to knowing what kind of hair you have.

With so many options in the market, it further compounds the problem of having to choose which product is best suited for your luscious locks. However, there are a few basic words which we should familiarize ourselves with, so that our task of choosing the product best suited for our needs becomes a tad bit more manageable. Know your hair, know your scalp. If your hair is dryer than a straw after spending a few hour outdoors, reach for the “moisturizing” type. Avoid this product if you have an oily scalp. If you feel that your hair is thin and raggedy, “volumizing” might be of some help.

2. A quality hair brush: Just like shampoos and conditioners, hairbrushes also come in a plethora of styles, sizes, builds and prices. Be familiar with your hair! If its breaks easily, opt for softer brushes which are gentle, thus preventing further breakage. For limp hair, use a round brush as it add bounce and infuse life into the hair.

3. Leave-Ons: Leave ons are the heroes your hair deserves! It keeps your hair smooth, frizz-free, fragrant and a delight to touch! What’s there to not love about this product?
