Every Woman’s Top Five Hair Issues Solved
Vibrant Color
“Don’t wash more than three times a week; it strips color, and the loss of natural oil will lead to dryness and less luminosity,” says Donna Tripodi, a master stylist for Eva Scrivo salon in New York City. And use products that’ll preserve your hue; we like Aveeno Living Color Shampoo and Conditioner ($7.50 each, at drugstores). Viggiani says: “This made my color look rich and helped my highlights shine.”

Split Ends
No. 2: “Can you fix my split ends without cutting them?.”
—Lisa Lam, 25
“It’s important not to wait too long between cuts—split ends can work their way up,” says L.A. hair pro Anthony Cristiano. But meantime, to hide ‘em, we love Nexxus ProMend Split End Binding Leave-in Créme ($10, at drugstores). Lam says: “I was amazed that this made my split ends less noticeable after one use. I spent 10 minutes trying to find them with no luck!”

Oily Roots
No. 3: “Help! My roots are always oily.”
—Kristin McClement, 26
“Oily roots can be due to excessive heat styling or product overload,” says celeb stylist Eric Sebbag. To soak up grease, spritz a dry shampoo on roots 12 inches from the scalp for even distribution (any closer and you’ll get one big clump). Our pick: Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo ($3, at drugstores). McClement says: “A total time-saver. I went three days without washing or styling.”
Volume
No. 4: “How can I get volume without the damage?”
—Elise Newton, 22
“Tease hair with a bristle brush—it’s gentler than a comb, and makes hair look light and fluffy,” says Pasquale Ferrante, co-owner of Ion Studio in NYC. To fight styling damage, try a treatment serum; we like John Frieda Full Repair Perfect Ends Deep Infusion ($10, at drugstores). Newton says: “This made my fine hair shiny and smooth without weighing it down.”

Dry Hair
No. 5: “I straightened my hair; now it’s so dry.”
—Jessica Best, 23
“Anyone who does chemical treatments or relaxers needs to put moisture back in,” says NYC stylist Sebastian Scolarici. “Use a mask once a week for 10 to 20 minutes.” Try Serge Normant Meta Morphosis Hair Repair Treatment ($60, barneys.com). Best says: “This was so indulgent, and it made my hair soft and silky.”
