15 best hair balsams

Hair balsams – funds that are often referred to as unnecessary excesses by women with short hair and without whom owners of long hair cannot live. How hair will look after washing and drying depends not only and not so much on the right shampoo (for which, in fact, you can make only two requirements: to wash and not to irritate the scalp), as from the hair balm used.

In addition to moisturizing and nutrition, which need long hair, hair balm and performs a protective function. After washing with shampoo under the influence of an alkaline pH, the cuticle scales - the outer cover of the hair - are lifted, due to which the hair itself becomes dimmer and more fragile. Balms “smooth” them back and add a thin film on the surface of the hair that protects it from external influences. It is this which retains moisture inside the hair and facilitates combing. Silicones usually create this film, but waxes, oils and other natural polymers can be used in silicone-free balms for this purpose.

Best balms for dry hair

Dry hair looks clean longer and this is probably their only advantage. How much effort you need to make in order to turn the dull prickly strands into shiny smooth curls know only those who got this type of hair. Most often dry hair is long. Natural lubrication - sebum skin - usually enough to cover only a few centimeters of hair at the roots. Of course, subject to regular washing. In addition, long hair is usually “older”: if a month the hair grows by an average of 1 cm, then the ends of the square to the chin are about a year, and with the length up to the shoulder blades and lower - consider yourself. During this time, the effects of the external environment somehow accumulate, damaging the hair structure, and retain moisture and nutrients worse in damaged hair. That is why balms for this type of hair are often called "for dry and damaged."

3 One hundred beauty recipes Sea Buckthorn

Balsam from a popular domestic brand will help solve the problem with dry and brittle hair. Sea buckthorn oil, which is the dominant ingredient, is perfect for any type of curls, bringing them back to life and adding shine.

Almond oil improves elasticity and gives shine. The women mark a pleasant smell of the product and an economical expense, calling this balm a storehouse of useful substances for ridiculous money. This is the best budget option for those who like to save.

2 Natura Siberica "Protection and nutrition"

With Rhodiola pink and cedar milk, this balm was one of the first lines from Natura Siberika, but it still collects a lot of rave reviews, remaining one of the best. The tool does not contain parabens, which many fear, but this is not its main advantage. In addition to the already mentioned Rhodiola Rosea, the balm contains many extracts of other useful herbs: Sophora Japanese, chamomile, thyme, Siberian fir. Siberian fir oil, evening primrose, wheat germ, cedar milk are used to nourish hair. Hydrolyzed keratin restores hair structure (ordinary keratin molecules are too large to “patch the holes”, so its hydrolysates are optimally used, upon receipt of which keratin splits into smaller chains of amino acids). Also added vitamins that improve the structure of the hair.

1 Weleda Regenerating with oat extract

This brand is famous for its natural formulations of cosmetics. Hair care products are no exception. Balm with oat extract perfectly cares for dry and damaged curls. The cereal plant underlying the remedy has long been famous for its healing properties. It promotes the formation of silicic acid, responsible for the strength of hair and nails.

Jojoba and coconut oils nourish and eliminate split ends by sealing scales. The result is thick, silky hair. The tool has a thick texture, but when applied to the head, it seems to melt from the heat and is evenly distributed along the entire length. It is noted that after applying the hair easy to comb and look more well-groomed. It is unlikely that the balm will be able to maintain the color of dyed hair well (for this purpose it is better to purchase a tint preparation), but it will cope with “excellent” with dry and damaged ones.

Best balms for colored hair

Despite the fact that colored hair is most often dry, the usual care for dry hair does not always suit them. Painted hair is strictly contraindicated oil masks, rapidly washing out the color. In addition to moisture, they definitely need substances that restore the protein structure - the base of the hair - which is regularly damaged due to the hard effects of chemical dyes. In the hair products for colored hair there are often tinting properties - in order to preserve the color longer, protecting it from the appearance of unwanted shades.

3 Kapous Professional color care

Means of Russian production, due to which it has a relatively humane price for a professional balm. Contains vitamins, antioxidants, natural oils and hydrolyzed vegetable proteins. All together should restore the hair structure and protect the color. Means is easily distributed on hair, has a pleasant chocolate and vanilla smell. Hair after use is smooth, shiny, easy to comb and not to push. The tool has almost no negative reviews, and on the basis of all the merits, it takes place in our rating as a balm for colored hair with the best price-quality ratio.

2 Clever Company Concept Live Hair Highlight Targeting Conditioner

Dyed hair needs special care, so do not neglect the balm. A good budget option is considered a remedy from the Clever Company. It helps to keep the resulting color and care for your hair as long as possible, making it elastic and pleasant to the touch. Balm delicately penetrates the scales, restoring their structure after dyeing, preventing dryness.

Extracts of strawberries and citrus - vitamin bomb, moisturizing the hair and energizing the inside. Concept Live will cope well with strands painted in warm colors, but it can yellow with cold ones, so it is better to get a tint balsam from the same line. A convenient lid makes the process of using the tool hassle-free, no need to worry about the damaged manicure, trying to open the tube with a fingernail. One light touch will be enough.

1 Davines alchemic

This hair balm is available in several shades to maintain a silvery blond, golden, for red tones, copper, chocolate, tobacco. For the desired effect, the tool is aged on the hair for 5-8 minutes. Judging by the reviews, the hair does not get fat and is quite economical: for shoulder-length hair it is enough volume with a hazelnut. This partly redeems its relatively high price. The pleasant smell, the consistence allows to distribute evenly on hair. After drying, the hair will keep its volume, remaining smooth and elastic. Of the disadvantages, you can cancel not too active moisture, so that the balm may not be suitable for women with over-dried hair.

The best hair balms economy class

High price does not always guarantee high quality - many luxury hair care products do not justify the money spent on them. And in the same way, many products with a low price provide excellent care. We tried to collect in the ranking of economical hair balms, having the most positive feedback.

3 Agafia thick balsam

Despite the fact that the name of this balm has the words "to strengthen strength and growth," you should not believe them unconditionally: as a rule, natural ingredients do not penetrate to the hair follicles. Some kind of mediated effect may have a massage when rubbing the product into the scalp, but no more. If we reject the excessive expectations, it turns out that the composition of the balm is quite interesting. 17 Siberian herbs contain vitamins, microelements and other biologically active substances that improve the condition of the hair. In addition, the balm contains burdock oil, traditionally known for its positive effect on hair, pine pine tar.

In general, the composition looks so that the balm should be well suited for coking. Of the negative properties, you can mark an inconvenient lid without a dispenser. In addition, despite the general abundance of positive reviews, some owners of over-dried hair say that the product has made them even drier.Considering that there are really no hydrolyzed proteins and amino acids in the composition, most likely, the balm really does not fit damaged hair that requires special care, but it will adequately show itself as a natural care product, which, together with an abundance of positive reviews, allowed us to add it to the rating .

2 Conditioner Clean Line "Regulatory"

There is a lot of talk about dry hair care, so it seems that oily hair does not need any procedures other than washing. In fact, this is certainly not the case. In the same way as dry, oily hair needs an air conditioner that protects them from external exposure and facilitates combing. In addition, a well-chosen remedy is often able to return hair that is prone to oiliness to the volume that they often lack.

Balsam contains extracts of chamomile, calendula, sage and yarrow. Does not contain silicones, which on excessive hair create excessive weighting. The consistency of this tool is quite light, the hair absorbs it well, while there is no feeling of fatness. Many reviews suggest that shampoo actually regulates sebum secretion, so it was possible to lengthen the interval between washing the hair.

1 Revivor

This tool has managed to become truly legendary. The composition of mink oil and coconut oil, lanolin, hydrolyzed collagen, nettle extracts and aloe. Despite the low price, the balm perfectly nourishes and moisturizes the hair. Among the shortcomings, it is possible to note an inconvenient capacity, and the fact that to achieve the effect the remedy needs to be kept on the hair not for 3-5 minutes, as it is written in the instructions, but to use it as a mask: wet the hair with a towel, apply balm and leave for 15-20 minutes. Only then will the balm show itself in all its glory. But for a product that costs a little more than a hundred rubles per can of 450 ml, these shortcomings are, we must say, forgivable. Takes place in our rating as the most economical hair balm.

The best tint hair balsams

Of course, modern hair dyes are relatively safe and do not require special skills to use, which allows many women to dye their hair at home. But with all their benefits, the colors are still not completely harmless to hair. In addition, they are not very suitable for those who like to change their hair color often to their mood. If to make a brunette brunette relatively easy, then the reverse transformation will require a lot of tweaks. Such ladies come to the aid tint balms. They will not allow the creation of a “radical black color” and do not have a bleaching effect, but nevertheless allow you to conduct a lot of experiments and easily eliminate the consequences of unsuccessful coloristic decisions. The shading balm of Belita-Vitex Color Lux

3 Tonic

Another legendary tool. Appearing in the harsh nineties, this tint balm instantly became popular among young people. Fans were not embarrassed by neither stained collars, nor pillowcases that took shade of hair, or overdried strands. And, in general, those who consider this remedy the best had grounds for such an opinion. There are now. Despite the shortcomings: the balm does require at least as much care as the paint, and before the first 1-2 washings the bed linen can be painted (which, however, can be easily washed), the product provides a bright and lasting color. A rich palette allows you to experiment to infinity.

However, owners of bleached strands need to be careful when using this balm. If the tone of a hair untouched by clarifiers disappears in 1-2 weeks, depending on their structure and frequency of washing the head, then the bleached one literally eats tightly and remains on them for months. However, this effect has a downside: the balm very effectively removes unwanted shades from dyed hair, or maintains the desired color. To do this, either mix it with shampoo 1 to 4 and wash your hair as usual, or dissolve the product in water and rinse hair. For all the undoubted advantages of Tonik, he rightfully takes his place in the ranking among the best.

2 Estel solo ton

Judging by the reviews of some women who did not guess with a touch, the balm is not completely washed off even after 20 washings of the head. Most, however, converge at 3-4 weeks, subject to washing every other day. Moreover, unlike Tonika, it straightens better and stronger than the strands that are not touched by chemical dyes and clarifiers. Therefore, before using it is recommended not to be lazy to do the test on a separate strand. The balm is quite thick, does not spread, which allows you to treat it like a hair dye, gently applying with a brush on the strands. Does not dry hair, does not paint clothes, opinions differ about hands, most still prefer to use gloves.

1 Belita-Vitex Color Lux

Belarusian cosmetics are known for excellent care properties combined with affordable prices. And to the tint balm Color Lux this applies to the full. Regardless of the result of color experiments. All reviews agree that the hair after using this balm becomes smooth, shiny. And this is not surprising, given the composition, which in addition to pigments include shea butter and olive oil. Another undoubted advantage of this tool: the coincidence of the color obtained with the stated. For color balms, the effect of which is often unpredictable, this is a huge advantage (the exception – henna-colored hair, but this is a well-known property of henna (any color changes on it). Do not paint towels, bedding and hands. Of the minuses note the unpleasant smell of the Soviet barber shop. But for the excellent care properties, the balm is justly worthy of Estel Solo toning hair balm is not rated in the rating of the best products.

Top Professional Hair Balsams

Balm or conditioner - a necessary thing for hair care. It is usually selected to solve a specific problem: dryness, breakage, curly curls, prolonged exposure to the sun and so on. Someone buys funds in the supermarket, and someone - in specialized stores. What is the difference? Professional care is different in that the composition of such products is more concentrated, consumption is economical, and the result is achieved faster, so it is ideal for active and busy people. As practice shows, the funds fully pay back the money spent.

3 Ollin Professional Care Restore Conditioner

The Russian professional hair care product, in spite of its availability, is in no way inferior in quality to its foreign colleagues. Useful components in the composition - vitamin B5 and proteins - make curls shiny and well-groomed. They restore the hair structure, making them durable. Balm produces a moisturizing and antistatic effect, which is good for the cold season, when you need to wear hats. No longer have to worry that the hairstyle will be like a "dandelion".

The modest design of the tube has rich content inside. This is exactly the case when you do not need to choose "on clothes." An excellent budget option for those who can not afford foreign counterparts. The women mark an excellent result after use, which instantly covers such a tiny and, probably, the only minus as a thick consistency, which creates slight difficulties in squeezing the product.

2 Matrix Biolage Advanced FiberStrong Conditioner

The American brand has long won the hearts of hairdressers and continues to conquer ordinary buyers. An excellent tool from the line of professional hair care, containing ceramides, which are responsible for creating a protective layer from harmful external influences. The vegetable components in the composition will revitalize the damaged strands, adding shine, elasticity and smoothness to them.

The tool is able to restore the natural pH, start the renewing processes, produce a moisturizing effect. It will not cause the formation of dandruff, peeling, feelings of tightness and dryness. Compact and stylish packaging will take one of the most important places on the shelf in the bathroom. In use, the balm is quite simple and economical. One tube is enough for six months of regular use. All this makes it the best among other professional analogues.

1 Wella Professionals Fusion Intense Repair Conditioner

It is difficult to imagine professional care without mentioning this brand. Wella as a synonym for quality mark. The restoring hair balm - one of the best means in the cosmetic market. It significantly improves the condition of the curls, influencing them not only from the outside, but also from the inside, thanks to the qualitative combination of the components in the composition. Amino serum Fusion, which is the basis of the balm, is able to restore even the most damaged hair from coloring or mechanical action.

Judging by the customer reviews, the tool fully justifies its cost. They mark another valuable property of the product - thermal protection, which protects hair from permanent drying, curling and straightening. Perhaps Fusion Intense will provide good care for dyed hair, but, for example, ashy blond is unlikely to be saved. In this case, it is better to purchase a special tint.
