Matte Pomade and Hair Oil
You already know the secret to fighting humidity, but let’s take it a step further, shall we? Yasss. When it’s time to style strands, babes looking to achieve frizz-less piecey texture without leaving hair parched will appreciate this tip—Matte Pomade plus Hair Oil is a match made in heaven. Add a dime-size dab of pomade and 1-2 pumps of oil through your hands, rub the frizz-fighting fusion between hands then apply it through mid-length to ends. Matte Pomade lends an effortless vibe, while Hair Oil keeps flyaway down and shine all the way up.

Leave In Conditioner and Air Dry Foam
If you thought your air dry with Air Dry Foam couldn't get any better, think again. The missing step in your wash-and-wear routine? Leave In Conditioner, the healthy hair essential you need to apply on damp hair before massaging in Air Dry Foam. Made with an amino acid blend, Leave In Conditioner does the defrizzing and moisturizing legwork for your locks. That means when it's time to follow with kale extract-infused Air Dry Foam, your hair is protected and healthy, allowing your air dry to enjoy double the frizz-fighting benefits. 

Curl Crème and Rose Hair & Body Oil 
Curly girls know the struggle to secure a slinky, soft curl that doesn't frizz up midday. The solution: Curl Crème and Rose Hair & Body Oil. To add moisture and definition to any style, from twist-outs to wash-and-go's, reach for Curl Crème, a silicone-free styling creme that soft serves any curl type with a hydrating blend of Chia, Linseed, Coconut, and Babassu Oils. Co-created with 150 members of our curly community, this do-it-all formula helps form and shape curls, while also controlling frizz and protecting your hair from humidity.

For maximum frizz protection and softness, mix a little bit of Curl Crème with our smoothing hair and body oil Rose Hair & Body Oil, a fusion of absinthium, shea, and rosehip oils that protects curls and infuses them with a dewy glow.

Body Cleanser and Body Crème St. Barts
Feel like you’re sippin’ on a piña colada while your skin soaks in hydration from our tropical-scented Body Cleanser St. Barts and Body Crème St. Barts. This duo will leave your skin renewed and hydrated and give you a healthy glow. You know the one. Like you just got back from vacation. 

Scalp Serum and Thick & Full Supplements for Thinning Hair
Make it a double. Take care from the top down when you pair our balancing and hydrating Scalp Serum with Thick & Full Supplements to promote thicker, fuller-looking strands. If you’re really serious about making sure there’s less mane in the drain, you can stock up on our 90-day supply of Thick & Full Supplements while supplies last. 

Curl Crème and Wave Spray
After 150 community members and one year of testing, we introduced to the world Curl Crème, a silicone-free cream dreamed up by you. It defines curls, reduces frizz, and adds shine to ALL curl types. Apply it during your wash-and-go routine for bouncy, soft curls. Then follow up with our salt-free texture spray Wave Spray. Infused with coconut water and rice protein, our fan fave texture spray will add grip and hold so you can have more bounce per ounce for longer

Wave Spray and Texturizing Hair Spray
For the inexperienced, beach waves don't come easily, though together Wave Spray and Texturizing Hair Spray make for an effortless beach waves hack. First, spritz rice protein-infused Wave Spray through damp strands. Use duckbill clips to create S-patterns along the hair. Spray more Wave Spray all over then blow dry over the clips or let air dry. Expect ocean-dipped grit sans the crunch after you blow dry that baby good, then take those tresses to texture town with Texturizing Hair Spray, our dry shampoo-hairspray hybrid. Flip your head over and spray at the roots and throughout the mid-lengths to ends to build lived-in volume—and voilà, you've done beach waves all by yourself.

 Detox Shampoo and Scalp & Body Scrub
We’ve already given you a rundown of how often to shampoo your hair. But beware, if you’re not using the right combination of daily care products for your hair type, you could be luring lifeless locks (take our Hair Consult Quiz to find out the right prescription for your hair).

To prevent any unwanted stress on your strands, consider using a shampoo and conditioner for different purposes. For example, if you’re the unofficial queen of skipping wash days or using a lot of styling products—shampoo your crown and scalp with our concentrated apple cider vinegar-infused Detox Shampoo mixed with Scalp & Body Scrub for an instant detox of buildup. Our deep cleansing foaming scrub exfoliates via sugar crystals. Finish by hydrating the mid-lengths to ends with FINE, MEDIUM, or THICK Conditioner to strengthen and replenish much-needed moisture. 

Hair Oil and Treatment Masque
Listen, we love changing colors like we change stations—platinum blonde to honey brown to dusty rose pink, and back to platinum blonde. Whatever torture your tresses are taking from you, we have a magical moisturizing mix to mend any split ends (and hard feelings). We’re talking Hair Oil plus Fine to Medium Treatment Masque or Thick Treatment Masque.

While those are the cocktail’s key ingredients, the kicker comes when you stir in your shower steam. For your hair to feel the damage remedy’s full effects, after you shampoo your hair in the shower, apply 3-4 pumps of Hair Oil on wet hair. Next, layer it with Treatment Mask. Throw on a shower cap and let the steam fulfill your damaged hair's dream as you finish showering. Remove the cap after 5-6 minutes then rinse. Your hair will never shine brighter or feel softer than it does when it dries.

Hair Oil and Heat Protection Spray
If you needed another reason to invite Heat Protection Spray to your vanity, here it is—shiny glass hair is lost without it, literally. The style extender slash heat protectant holds your hairstyle until you shampoo it out, and also beats frizz to a punch. When it’s paired with Hair Oil, the style is one worth wasting all your polaroid prints on. For your sleekest strands ever, spray Heat Protection Spray on dry hair in sections and activate with your flat iron to lock in the style. When finished, set the look by spraying Heat Protection Spray all over. Lastly, give the glass hair trend a run for its money by applying 2-3 pumps of Hair Oil in your palms and coating your hair in sections for a dazzling finish.
