These New Products Make Your Hair Look Its Best Even When It's 100 Degrees Outside

"Shampoo bars are having a moment — they're easy for travel, environmentally friendly, and simple to use. Still, I was skeptical to actually use something that looked like soap on my hair. But then I tried the Love Beauty and Planet Muru Muru Shampoo Bar ($5), and now I'm sold. It smells lovely and refreshing, is free of harsh cleansers, leaves my hair super soft, and is even color safe. Bars have come a long way." — Dawn Davis, senior editorial director, Beauty

"When I sprayed my hair with the Shu Uemura Muroto Volume Hair Mist For Fine Hair ($39), it created the air-dried texture I'd been dreaming of. The weightless spray didn't weigh down my dense but fine hair, giving my waves the life and movement I've always craved. Plus, the smell can only be described as sexy luxury salon." — Sarah Siegel, assistant editor, Beauty

"I've been traveling a lot this month, so I've had to swap my full-size hair products for a selection of minis. Luckily, celebrity hairstylist Kristin Ess dropped a travel-size bottle of her bestselling Dry Shampoo — Kristin Ess Mini Dry Shampoo ($5) — before I left for my trip. That meant I could do what everyone is supposed to do on vacation: sleep in more and shower less, without looking like a greaseball by the end of each day — or worrying about it getting confiscated by TSA." — Kelsey Castañon, senior editor, Beauty

"When I first opened the bright yellow bottles of the Briogeo Be Gentle, Be Kind Superfoods Banana + Coconut Shampoo and Conditioner Pack ($48), I was not prepared for just how amazing they would smell. They're made with superfoods like banana, coconut, and acai. Their lightweight formulas leave my thin, wavy hair feeling ridiculously soft and looking bouncier than it normally is. After using the duo for the last month, I've found that it cleanses my hair so well, I can skip a few extra days in between washes." — Jessica Harrington, assistant editor, Makeup.com and Skincare.com

"Yuni Beauty Air Dry Conditioner Hair Mist ($18) has proven to be the answer to my woes during this New York City heatwave. I keep a bottle of this thin, fresh-scented mist at my desk to bring down the frizz caused by this heat and humidity. A few spritzes tame my unruly waves, while spraying it generously on my hair when it's wet immediately detangles." — Jesa Marie Calaor, assistant editor, Beauty

The spray nozzle on the Bed Head Showdown Anti-Frizz Hairspray ($20) dispenses an ultrafine mist that smooths frizz and adds shine to hair.

"The Love Beauty and Planet Coconut Water Shampoo and Conditioner Bar ($5) deeply cleansed my hair and scalp, leaving them feeling fresh and incomparably clean. I swept it along my thick, medium-coarse hair and across my head in circular motions to create lather before washing it out. My hair detangled in the shower and smelled fresh like coconut water after I towel-dried it — though I did have to follow it with a more emollient treatment to bring down my frizz. The shampoo bar is housed in a recyclable carton and is part of the brand's Clean Ocean's Collection — a line packaged in 100 percent ocean-bound plastics collected from coasts and waterways." — JMC

"Davines Oi Hair Butter ($44) is rich, creamy, and hypermoisturizing. It's exactly what my thick, medium-coarse waves need. It has a strong scent similar to baby powder — one that I don't typically gravitate toward — but I'll use this butter frequently for how soft and shiny it leaves my hair." — JMC

I try just about every Living Proof product that comes across my desk because their research and development is second to none. And their newest launch, Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Heat Styling Spray ($28), doesn't disappoint. It's a multipurpose spray that offers heat protection, makes your style last, and helps your hair stay clean. I can go an extra day before I reach for (Living Proof) dry shampoo. — DD
