Fine hair peeps, this one's for you! While the internet is full of amazing hairstyles, hairdos, accessories and styling products, we know what it's like to be constantly worried about how to style thin hair. There’s so much to think about – choosing a shampoo and conditioner that won't completely weigh your hair down, stylers that won't lose their power after a few minutes and protection from all the elements threatening to make your hair even thinner isn’t easy.
Well, we heard your #hairproblems and created something to help! Say hello to your new BFF: the Ghost™ Collection. This weightless, moringa oil-based family of products is meant to be felt, not seen (hence “ghost”). Our Ghost™ products are made for fine to medium hair, helping to weightlessly smooth hair and add shine. But before we get into the details, let’s go over some of our favorite tips and tricks to take care of fine or thin hair.
How to take care of fine hair
Fine and thin hair comes with its own set of rules. In short, think light, layered and low on buildup. A solid fine haircare routine is less about piling on product and depriving your hair of moisture and more about smart choices and consistency.
Before we get into the best products for fine hair, we want to share some of our favorite tips and bits of advice that can make a huge difference:
-
When it comes to shampoo, you don’t need to do it daily as that can be too harsh. But, when you do, use a lightweight formula that won’t weigh things down.
-
Condition carefully, and try to only apply from mid-lengths to ends of hair, keeping product away from your roots. This helps to keep your hair hydrated without “flattening” it.
-
When it comes to brushing, make sure you’re using the best brush to prevent damage. Look for a detangling brush and start brushing from the ends down, then move to the mid-lengths to ends, and finally brush from roots to ends. .
-
Fine hair isn’t one-size-fits-all, especially if it’s also wavy or curly which is why it's important to know your hair’s density and porosity types. Low-density hair may need less product, while high-porosity strands (common in wavy and curly textures) soak up moisture fast and can feel dry without using the right leave-in conditioner.
-
We say it all the time but don’t forget to take care of your scalp! A healthy scalp = a better environment for growth. We recommend giving yourself an exfoliating scalp massage to boost circulation.
-
Finally, skip the product overload and build volume and hold with targeted stylers. Think dry shampoo at the roots, hair oil on the ends and a flexible hairspray that won’t get crunchy. Keep reading to learn more about the best products for fine hair that do just that!
The best hair products to take care of fine hair
When it comes to fine hair, product choice matters. A lot. You want product formulas that add volume, not weight. Below, we’re breaking down the best hair products we have for fine hair that do just that.
1. Best shampoo for fine hair: 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. The reason Ghost™™ Shampoo is a bestseller 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. Best conditioner for fine hair: 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. 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 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 those with fine hair!

Once you step out of the shower, it’s time to add some Ghost™ Oil. Apply 2-3 drops on damp hair to smooth any remaining frizz and add shine. Ghost™ Oil is our #1 bestseller for a reason. It’s designed to be lightweight yet effective, leaving your hair smooth and shiny without weighing it down.

5. Best heat protectant for fine hair: Ghost™ Primer
Next up (if you have time) we recommend using a blow-dryer 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™ Primer comes in. Ghost™ Primer works like a primer for your hair.Add a small amount post-shower to keep it protected from heat up to 450ºF.

6 Best brush for fine hair: Blow Dry Brush
You don’t want to spend more time than necessary applying high heat to hair, so we highly recommend using the Blow Dry Brush to help cut your drying time. The best thing to do while blow-drying is to rough dry your hair while it’s flipped upside down to help get volume at the root.
7. Best hairspray for fine hair: Ghost™ Flexible Hairspray
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™ Flexible Hairspray, the lightweight, medium hold hairspray that will give your style the hold it needs without the crunch.

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 and add shine to hair. 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 scent.
