Those who color their hair can likely agree: It takes a lot more products and time to keep strands feeling healthy, shiny, and happy. Coloring your hair and often can cause strands to become brittle and prone to breakage. Add some humidity to the mix (hello, summer!), and strands can begin to look like they ran through barbed wire. While there’s no one “best way” to care for dyed hair (it really depends on your hair’s individual needs), there are so many hair treatments that can work wonders for most hair types—and Amazon shoppers dub this specific product as a “miracle” for dyed and frizzy hair: Elizavecca Collagen Treatment ($7).
The not-so-secret ingredient and star of this product, collagen, can keep your hair healthy and strong by giving it the building blocks it needs to make proteins, which are essential for healthy hair growth and maintenance, Sharleen St. Surin-Lord, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Washington DC, previously told W+G. Collagen also works by signaling to your fibroblasts, which are cells responsible for hair follicle regeneration, to grow, which can lead to a fuller scalp.
For best use, the brand recommends applying a generous amount after shampooing wet hair. Leave the treatment on between five and 20 minutes and rinse. The result? Shinier, less frizzy, and healthier-looking hair.
Don’t take our word for it. Head to the reviews, where you’ll find more than 27,000 five-star ratings. “I live in Florida where it’s always humid and my hair gets so frizzy whether I let it air dry or blow dry,” said an Amazon shopper with dyed hair. “I let it air dry or blow dry. I just put this on after shampooing and maybe let it sit for three minutes tops. I just used it like a regular conditioner, and I cannot believe how soft my hair is. It has a nice shine, too, and smells great.”
Others called it a “miracle product.” One Amazon customer said: “I used the collagen treatment. Omg. My hair. It feels better than it felt before I did anything to it from the beginning. It feels better that it ever has walking out of a salon. I’m amazed… I love the tone/color I was able to get back to after red [hair].”
Another shopper said they enjoyed using the product on their dyed hair. “I love this product! I dyed my hair non-traditional colors for a couple years. This product always helped restore my hair after the bleaching and dying. I would put enough on to coat the length, put a heating cap on for 15 mins, and rinse out. You really don’t need to put a thick coat on your hair. Much cheaper than brand-name products!”
Whether you’re looking to tame frizz or quench parched locks, Elizavecca Collagen Treatment is a great option to keep your hair looking shiny and healthy.
