For several weeks now I have been trying a number of hair masks in efforts to crown the best, most effective ones, however, I’ll be honest… I can’t see enough of a difference between them. What I can share with you is I DO see a big difference when I use them, than when I don’t. My hair is softer, silkier, shinier, and less frizzy. I’ve now been using a hair mask twice a week and I’ll tell you, this may be the secret to healthier looking, shiny locks year round. I highly recommend you add one or more of these to your routine—your hair will thank you for it! Here are my faves.

KIEHL’S OLIVE FRUIT OIL DEEPLY REPAIRATIVE HAIR PAK – $25/ 8.4 oz

Intense conditioning for your hair, while helping to prevent future damage. Ideal for hair weakened by overexposure to sun, chemical processing or excessive heat styling. Contains avocado oil, lemon extract and olive fruit oil. This *may* be my favorite and I love that it comes in a huge tub.
