Meet Lynn, a 52-year-old film and theater director. She admits to a lifetime of struggling with her unruly curls, which are now rapidly losing their youthful volume and brunette hue.

Who doesn't love spending a lazy Saturday afternoon lying out by the pool or attending one of the many outdoor BBQs that summer brings? But while these warmer days offer the perfect backdrop for beachy waves or casual updos, the weather is also to blame for ruining our perfect coifs and damaging our hair.

We're not saying that you must spend a ton of money on hair care products to get the quality you're looking for, but what we are saying is that there is a huge difference in quality -- even among the shampoos in the drugstore aisles. And the shampoos on this list are not of high quality.
