Dry, lackluster strands are an issue that many of us are familiar with — especially if we have color-treated hair. Yes, you can slowly nurture your hair to its shiniest, glossiest finish, or you can use a quick and easy at-home hair gloss treatment to bring back your hair's beautiful sheen.

WHAT IS A HAIR GLOSS TREATMENT?

According to Kate Reid, KEVIN.MURPHY’s COLOR.ME Design Director and Education Master, “gloss” refers to the way the hair shines and illuminates, and this glossifying effect can be created in multiple ways. Some of us are just born with naturally silky strands, but the rest of us might need a gloss boost. Reid says that these treatments seal and smooth your hair cuticle, “which reflects light, creating shinier hair, less frizz, and actually makes it much easier to blow-dry and style.”

On top of restoring shine, hair glosses are also known for their tone-amplifying and brass-busting properties. Those with color-treated hair may be very familiar with these treatments, but Reid notes that natural color-free hair can enjoy the shine-boosting effects of hair gloss treatments, too.
