The 12 Best Hair Masks for Every Hair Concern

If you’re looking to get the best hair of your life, there’s one product you should be sure to include in your routine: a hair mask. Anyone can use a hair mask—it doesn’t matter what texture your hair is or how much damage it has. In fact, hair masks are essential for getting healthy, bouncy, and soft hair. Think of a hair mask as a DIY spa treatment for your hair.

Hair masks get a bad rap for being super thick. “When people hear ‘hair mask,’ the general conception is of a heavy and deep conditioning product,” says Fekkai SoHo colorist Lorik Rockefeller. “[Because of] that, a lot of people,  especially the ones with finer hair, tend to avoid them.” But hair masks come in all different consistencies for all different hair textures and densities. 

Using a hair mask helps you maintain your haircut a bit longer, ward off split ends, and repair and prevent damage. Whether you want to improve the health of your hair or give your strands some major TLC, there’s a hair mask out there for every hair type, texture, concern, and price point.
