The best hair products and routine for fine hair

1. Ghost Shampoo

Let’s start with the basics, Ghost Shampoo will gently wash your hair without stripping it of its natural oils and leave it clean, smooth, and frizz-free thanks to the key ingredient in all Ghost products, moringa oil (learn more about this powerhouse ingredient here). The reason Ghost Shampoo is a best seller is that while it’s great for all hair types, it’s especially helpful for people with thin hair looking to lightly cleanse and keep your locks smooth and shiny. 

2. Ghost Conditioner

Follow with Ghost Conditioner to weightlessly condition while also detangling and strengthening your strands – key for thin hair to prevent breakage when brushing and styling. 

3. Detangling Brush

Not sure which brush you should be using? Make sure you’re using the best brush to prevent damage like the Detangling Brush (and don’t forget to brush starting from the ends up to the roots)!

4. Ghost Mask

In need of some extra hydration? Swap out your conditioner for Ghost Mask every 2 to 3 washes. We recommend using this deep conditioner once a week for those with dry hair and as your hair needs more hydration from styling or overprocessing, substitute for conditioner in as many as every other wash. If your fine hair is easily weighed down, the Ghost Mask will make it feel light-as-air while also strengthening fragile strands, boosting hydration and promoting shine. Make sure to start by applying the formula directly to ends working your way up to midshaft and only use the excess amount at the roots. Not weighing down roots is the golden rule for fine hair humans!

5. Ghost Oil

Once you step out of the shower, it’s time to add some Ghost Oil. A little goes a long way with this one so ½ a drop on damp hair will smooth any remaining frizz and add shine. Ghost Oil is the bestseller for a reason thanks to the weightless feel, you won’t have to worry about it making your scalp feel oily or heavy… only good hair days ahead!

6. Ghost Prep

Next up (if you have time) we recommend using a blowdryer to amplify at the roots and get volume that will last! Make sure you’re protecting your thin strands from the heat which is where Ghost Prep comes in. Ghost Prep works like a primer for your hair, add a small amount post-shower to keep it protected from heat up to 425ºF.

7. Blow Dry Brush

You don’t want to spend more time than necessary so we highly recommend using the Blow Dry Brush to help cut your drying time. The best thing to do while blow drying is too rough dry your hair while it’s flipped upside down to go back to that golden rule and help add alllll the volume at the root. 

Whichever style you decide to go with, you want to make sure it can hold the rest of the day without feeling like you applied ten pounds of hair products onto your hair. Enter Ghost Hairspray, the weightless medium hold hairspray that will give your style the hold it needs without the crunch. Best part? Layer for more hold or if you used too much simply brush out to go from work to happy hour or onto the next hairstyle! 

We know what you’re thinking, what about day two? Say hello to Ghost Dry Oil, the quick refresher to keep your hair hydrated even after you’ve started applying lots of dry shampoo to extend your look. Ghost Dry Oil will extend a blowout, condition ends, add shine and prevent damage from washing and styling. This gentle moringa oil-infused formula will instantly absorb into your hair to eliminate those day two (or three or four, no one is judging here!) tangles and add a fresh grapefruit and oatmeal scent. 

As a quick little bonus, end your hair care routine with something fun and sparkly! If you’re going out on the town you can add some serious shine and glitter through the night with Ghost Dry Oil Disco Edition.
