Frizzy, greasy, flat, matted - no matter what your version of a bad hair day looks like, it probably doesn't look great.
There are countless of products out there promising to help your hair on days when your locks have a mind of its own, but it can be hard to know what's actually worth trying.
That's why I asked my co-workers to share their bad hair day hacks - products, tools, and accessories they actually use to manage those seemingly unmanageable locks.
Below you'll find 15 products we actually use to deal with our locks on bad hair days.
We've all had our fair share of bad hair days - and if you haven't, please share your secrets. For most of us, it's unusual to wake up every single morning with naturally shiny, healthy hair. Some days, our locks look a little more "bed head" than "beach wave." Plus, on busy mornings, dealing with our hair isn't usually on the top of the priorities list.
Luckily, there are so many products out there promising to tame frizz, absorb grease, add texture and volume - it's just a matter of finding the ones that are actually worth spending your money on. As a team of reviewers, we've all tried plenty of products, including ones for our hair. That's why I asked my co-workers to share their own bad hair day hacks - the products, tools, and accessories they rely on to tame their own hair when it's at its most unruly. When you feel like there's no way you can manage your next bad hair day, hopefully one of these products can help you out.
