Stylists Always Recommend This Miracle Product for Damaged Hair
As someone who has dealt with some form of hair damage most of their life, I recommend you take it from me: You need a good deep conditioner. I spent the majority of my teenage years heat-styling because I found my natural, curly texture just too difficult to work with on a daily basis. Little did I know that would cause some long-term damage that would be tough to repair.
What really helped save my lackluster locks was choosing the right repair masks and switching out my shampoo and conditioner. It takes effort, but you can spin those straw-like and damaged strands back into gold. Although I have a few of my own favorites I swear by, I tapped a few celebrity stylists to get their recs because, well, they're the experts. If you're in the market for a solid option in this department, keep reading for what they had to share below.

Other Beaty-Editor Favorites
K18 Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask
Even though I don't heat-style my hair as much as I used to, my hair still suffers from lingering damage. This is easily one of the best leave-in treatments I've used to help repair that. It's a process, but the patented peptide technology really does the trick to help repair those strands.
Olaplex No. 3 Hair Repair Perfector
I've been a longtime user of this repair wizard and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. It's one of the best deep conditioners for damaged hair because it strengthens and protects the hair shaft from the inside out. My hair always looks noticeably revived after use.
Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Mask
Adwoa Beauty Blue Tansy Reparative Mask
Oribe Gold Lust Transformative Mask
Celebrity stylists never stop talking about how fantastic Oribe products are, and I can confirm they are truly magical. The brand's Gold Lust Transformative Mask is a nutrient-rich formula that provides intense hydration and helps repair hair fibers at a deeper level.
Dae Monsoon Moisture Mask
SheaMoisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Treatment Masque
This drugstore option is a fan favorite for a reason. It features Jamaican black castor oil, which is great for extra hydration and damage repair. It is a bit on the thick side, so that's something to be aware of if you have finer hair and would like something lighter.
Arvazallia Hydrating Argan Oil Hair Mask
Bumble and Bumble Bond-Building Repair Treatment
Virtue Restorative Treatment Mask
