Beauty editor Gwen Flamberg dishes hot-right-now tress treats

Body Perfector

The season’s return to a more structured schedule calls for more polished ’dos. Lock in your look with a shot of hairspray like Tresemmé’s Total Volume, which beefs up locks in the long run, too, thanks to collagen in the formula. $7, target.com

Clean Shampoo

Up your sustainability game with Uni’s Hydrating Shampoo. Sure, the hydrating formula (packed with eight strengthening amino acids as well as kakadu plum) keeps hair healthy, but even better, it comes in a returnable bottle made from recycled aluminum, plus a forever dispenser. $34, weareuni.com

Color Keeper

Prevent summer highlights from turning orange with a nourishing mask. Christophe Robin’s The Colour Shield Cleansing Mask with Camu-Camu Berries contains vitamin C to prevent oxidation and macadamia oil to rebuild sunstripped strands. $49, christopherobin.com

Density Builder

After months of ponytails and tight braids, hair loss at the temples may be an issue. Virtue’s Flourish Mask for Thinning Hair is packed with red clover flower extract and unique tetrapeptides that target follicles to spur healthy growth. Use it at least once a week. $70, virtuelabs.com

Frizz Fighter

Say hello to your smoothest hair yet. IGK’s Good Behavior 4-in-1 Prep Spray gently detangles, controls frizz and adds shine. Plus, it provides 450-degree heat protection for all of your styling needs! $29, igkhair.com and sephora.com

Deft Diffuser

Elevate beach waves to glossy, glamorous curls by adding a diffuser into your routine. Curlsmith’s Defrizz Dryer & XXL Diffuser combines even airflow with a whopping 8-inch diameter to finish bouncy, coily styles faster than ever. $189, curlsmith.com
