Summer is on the horizon and with it, a social calendar filled to the brim with warm weather activities. But don’t forget that while you’re busy planning your summer outfits, your hair also needs a little TLC. Enter the best hair products of May 2022. All that vitamin D can do the body good, but too much time in the sun can damage your locks as well as your skin. That’s why this month’s slew of protective leave-in products, styling products and more from brands like Sol De Janeiro, Amika and Bumble and Bumble will have you clicking ‘add to cart’ quickly. Overall, a major theme is the key ingredients that hydrate. (Think: hyaluronic acid, natural oils like rosehip, squalane, and coconut, to name a few).
