True, not all hair is the same. But all hair can use a little pampering every now and then, no matter what its strengths and weaknesses are. Certain products add shine and body (not to mention great scents) to those tresses, and who wouldn’t benefit from that? We turned to some respected brands for their suggestions on the latest ways to give your locks the love they deserve.
