Real Simple's Editorial Guidelines Published on December 12, 2023 06:00PM EST Photo: Real Simple / Reese Herrington Cold winter temperatures outside mixed with dry heat inside can often leave your hair feeling dryer than the Sahara desert. Not only does lack of moisture make hair look dull, but it also makes it more prone to breakage and static. Instead of wearing a hat to cover up your locks all winter, Ouai has a new solution: The recently launched Hair Gloss. Ouai is an editor-favorite brand for hair care—we’ve named Ouai products on our lists of ‘Best Deep Conditioners’ and ‘Best Hair Detanglers.’ The Hair Gloss will boost your hair’s shine, but that’s not the only benefit. The product treats damage while protecting it from heat up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, so you can continue blow-drying without further harming your hair. Plus, it’s safe to use on color-treated hair, and it even helps prevent your color from fading. And as a bonus, the gloss has the brand’s lovely North Bondi fragrance to make your locks smell fresh. Ouai Hair Gloss Ouai $34 at Sephora The gloss is made with sugar beets to help your color stay brighter longer, which means you can wash your hair without worrying about ruining your freshly highlighted strands. And you can go longer between appointments, too. It also contains panthenol (a form of vitamin B5) to hydrate and hyaluronic acid to help your hair retain moisture. In addition to being color safe, the gloss can also be used on hair that’s been treated with keratin, and it’s free from parabens and sulfates. How to Care for Fine Hair, According to Stylists You don’t have to be an expert at hair care to use the gloss. All you have to do is wash with your usual shampoo and conditioner, then apply the product to your hair and let it sit for around five minutes. When you rinse it out, you’ll be left with shinier, smoother hair.
