Hair Products Lazy Girls Will Be Obsessed With
I'll admit I'm pretty lazy when it comes to most things. But I'm the worst with hair. So I'm always on the lookout for hair products that are perfect for the laziest of them all. Because I'll concede to wash and condition my hair when I absolutely have to, but anything beyond that (including brushing) almost never happens. Even all of the styling tools that I do own are from when I was a teenager, and I believe there's probably a layer of dust over all of them.
The problem is that I know my hair could use a little something extra. Extra conditioning, extra protection, extra smoothness and shine. But, as I'm sure you've gathered thus far, I'm way too lazy to work a series of haircare products into my routine. And if you're reading this, I assume you are too. What we need then, is that one miracle product that does it all. We can remember one extra step, right? That way, our hair doesn't have to suffer for our laziness. So if you're ready to step up your hair game in the easiest way possible, here are eight products that offer multiple benefits in just one, simple step.
1. It's A 10
So you want to be able to reduce drying time, naturally straighten, add shine and style hold, detangle, protect against heat styling, and prolong blowouts all while smoothing your hair? This balm's got you covered.
