If the Kardashians are about it, and Instagram is swarming with it, it has to be worthwhile, right? Despite not keeping up with the Kardashians, I had kept up with the fact that their hairstylist, Jen Atkin, had a hair care line that was taking the internet by storm. Before using this fine hair shampoo, I realized that it had separated in the bottle and requires a good shake to remix. As fancy as I felt lathering my locks in this celeb-approved formula, I quickly understood that the sleekly packaged shampoo's benefits were more than surface deep. I hopped out of the shower with visibly lifted roots that shocked me. It looks like I agree with the Kardashians on something.
If you're looking for body and volume that looks like it's your natural hair, this deliciously scented shampoo should earn a spot in your line-up. The best part about this formula is that it contains ingredients, like ceramides and hyaluronic acid, that helps make your hair resistant to life-sucking stress, meaning your hair will retain its newfound volume in the days to come. Multi-day blowout? Yep, this shampoo makes it possible. And that's really saying something considering even my professional blowouts tend to fall flat within hours of leaving the salon.
Because I have access to so many prestige products, it's rare that I find drugstore products that I'd trade for my higher-priced faves. This fortifying shampoo sets a new standard though. Infused with a blend of castor and neem oil to strengthen and repair over-styled hair, this thick formula helps renew fine, flat hair to create a head full of healthy-looking hair. As soon as I massaged it into my hair, I felt like I was whisked away into an outdoor shower at the beach. To say that I enjoyed the sensory experience is an understatement.
Fine Hair Shampoo No. 6: Shu Uemura Art of Hair Muroto Volume Pure Lightness Shampoo, $48
When you have fine hair, one of the biggest worries is that all the products that promise killer volume will, in fact, kill your volume. This happens because they tend to be too heavy. It's that reasoning that led me to try this shampoo. Its claims about weightlessness piqued my curiosity -- I had to know if the long-lasting volume it promised was possible. Sure enough, it was. What's more, this particular option is also safe for color-treated hair, which took it up a notch.
Think of retro seventies bombshell hair, and then thank your lucky stars that IGK just gets it. Their feather-light volumizing shampoo has a beachy smell and creates next-level lift that bounces from roots to ends while pumping up hydration.
