When you think about it, your hair does a lot for you: It accents your newest outfit, it provides endless flipping and twirling distractions during bored moments, it even helps you to flirt.
But that doesn't mean we're always thankful.
Harsh dyes, scratchy brushes, and cutting split ends yourself in the bathtub are ways of life for the young and modern, but small tweaks of torture for your locks.
Bumble & bumble has always been an expert at calming and soothing stressed hair, and their latest product line is a bit like Prozac for your tresses. The new Quench line soothes dry hair (taming frizzies in the process), while Mend repairs damaged or frayed cuticles that have suffered in flat irons, hot rollers, and endless tubes of bleach.
Let's put it this way: if you're planning on growing your mane for summer (and mimicking the long hair at Chanel and Balmain's runways for Spring), this is a necessary step towards good hair karma.
