I’ve long prided myself on abstaining fromhot toolsand have been sans-straightener since middle school.
So when the news of the just-launchedOuai Hair Glosslanded at the top of my inbox, I was intrigued.
Ouai’s Hair Gloss is the newest product from the mostly-hair,sometimes-perfumebrand, founded by celebrity stylistJen Atkin.
If your hair is already prone to breakage, the gloss also purports to treat damage, too.

Initially, I was daunted by the treatment’s instructions.
It’s a five-minute affair with steps that read a bit like a recipe.
Still, I dutifully obeyed Ouai’s orders.
My hair felt noticeably silkier after I rinsed.
Back in my bedroom, I began blow drying with myT3 Airebrush.
As my hair met the heat, I saw and felt a difference.
The strands were shinier and smoother, with more hydration and markedly less frizz.
Running my fingers through my locks post-blow dry was easier than usual despite thewintery drynessin my apartment.
Having a trusty, shine-forward protectant makes me feel better about using heat and helps to gentlyperfumemy ‘do.
An extra five minutes, it is.
