Let me set the scene for you. The air is dry and brittle. In a bleached hair oasis, my damaged locks are thirsty for moisture, and breaking off around my by the boat load. My individual strands have split ends well into the double digits. I'm at the crossroads of drastically chopping my hair, or initiating a full-blown hair restoration treatment.
This is not the first time I've faced this impending decision, and it likely won't be the last. So for my ladies and gentleman who can relate, here are the internet's most sought after solutions for repairing your ultra-damaged ends.
OLLY Undeniable Beauty Gummy
Healthy hair starts from the inside out. Taking two gummies a day fortifies your locks through a beautifying blend of Biotin, Vitamin C, E, and Keratin. I like to incorporate vitamins for my hair and skin into my daily routine, so I am feeding my body with nutrients that will combat dull, dry hair.

The Like a Virgin Masque is a fabulous product for locking in moisture and hydrating ends.

OLAPLEX No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask, and No. 7 Bonding Oil
A reputable name in the hair community, OLAPLEX repairs each hair strand ionically and covalently, targeting weak or broken bonds anywhere on your hair shaft instead of focusing solely on your ends.
Two of their most popular products are the No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask and the No. 7 Bonding Oil. This mask is lightweight, and in ten minutes makes hair noticeably softer, stronger, and shinier. When I colored my hair, this product single-handedly turned my coarse, damaged hair into a manageable and sleek mane. The bonding oil can double as a heat protectant and a styling oil, meant to restore your hair's integrity.
