“This nourishing mask is powered by Karmatin, a vegan keratin alternative, which coats the hair to make it instantly appear thicker and doesn’t wash away with rinsing,” says Neera Nathan, MD, MSHS, a board-certified dermatologist. It’s infused with marula and moringa seed oils, which smooth frizz and prevent breakage, and work to thicken and lengthen hair.
Glamour’s Kilkeary says:
“I’ve noticed that my hair has been more brittle over the past years, so I’ve really become reliant on trying different hair growth products to thicken it up a bit. This mask has been a huge help—my mid-to-ends feel a lot smoother and stronger, and don’t as easily break when I’m brushing out my strands.”—A.M.K

A favorite of Rita Hazan, celebrity colorist and founder of the Rita Hazan Salon, this conditioning hair mask can help minimize breakage. “This mask is super thick and has sea buckthorn berry and jojoba oil to hydrate and revitalize dry, damaged hair. It helps restore softness, shine, and manageability while protecting from further damage,” she says. The consistency is thick and creamy, and a little goes a long way during application. As you rinse it out, you can literally feel a difference in your hair—it’ll be more lightweight, extremely soft, smooth and snag-free.
