How to pick the right leave-in product
Leave-in treatments aren’t just a luxury; they’re essential.
From preventing colour fading and detangling to rejuvenating your hair, leave-in products are one of the quickest and most effective ways to improve hair health.
Whether you follow a detailed hair care routine or prefer a simple approach, we’re here to guide you on how to select the best leave-in product for your needs.
With so many options available, it can feel overwhelming to choose the right one.
But instead of sticking to the same old routine or getting frustrated, why not have some fun and experiment with something new this season?
WHY DO I NEED A LEAVE-IN TREATMENT?
Whether you're pressed for time or want to add a specific step to your hair care, leave-in conditioners are the finishing touch that can repair, nourish, and protect. From boosting moisture to strengthening hair and shielding it from heat, a leave-in treatment should follow every wash.
THINK ABOUT YOUR HAIR TYPE AND TEXTURE
Everyone’s hair is unique, so it’s important to choose leave-in products that are tailored to your specific hair type and texture. Leave-in treatments come in a variety of formulas, ranging from lightweight to more intensive. If you have finer or thinner hair, look for weightless options and use sparingly. On the other hand, those with thicker, coarser hair will likely benefit from richer formulations — or even a combination of two!
ARE YOU AIR-DRYING OR USING A BLOW DRYER?
Finding a routine that suits your hair type and styling habits depends on selecting the right product. If you air-dry, frizz control is often the main concern, so leave-ins with anti-frizz ingredients that define texture are your best bet. When blow-drying, the focus should be on heat protection and achieving a smooth, long-lasting finish.
NEED A MULTI-FUNCTIONAL PRODUCT?
While the primary role of leave-in treatments is to hydrate and improve hair health, some products also serve as styling aids. These all-in-one products are perfect for streamlining your routine or packing light when you travel.
A few leave-ins that double as multi-taskers include:
