Hair Waters Are The Lightweight Treatments That Boast Big Results
By ANNA DENSON
Hair water (a.k.a. lamellar water) is a popular alternative to hair masks and conditioners for instant hydration and shine. It also targets damaged hair on an atomic level.
Hair waters contain amino acids that will enhance your hair's strength and shine and conditioning ingredients that revive the fullness and texture of your strands.
Redken reports that benefits are noticeable within 10 seconds after the first use. It’s suitable for all hair types, but those with dry or frizzy hair will benefit the most.
The hair water currently making the biggest stir is the shockingly affordable L'Oréal Paris Elvive 8 Second Wonder Water, available on Amazon for just over $8.
The product is easy to use. After shampooing, massage the product into the lengths and ends of your hair (avoiding the scalp) for eight seconds and then rinse thoroughly.
You can follow up with your regular conditioner, although you may want to see how hair water works on its own first.
