7 Drugstore Hair Products Celebs Swear By
Who doesn't want to take hair advice from celebrities? They have all this insider info and professionals working with them, so they probably know a lot more than we do, but sometimes the products they recommend aren't always in our budgets. So you know what's even better? When celebrities swear by a drugstore hair product. Relatable celebrities (and cheap hair care) FTW!
I'm always that girl who hears someone with amazing hair uses a product and I'm instantly Googling and ready to add it to my shopping cart — until I see a $50+ price tag. That's not going to fly with my low-maintenance, low-cost hair routine, but it turns out plenty of celebrities are just as low-maintenance as we are, and don't always drop major dough for beauty products. When you're spending less, though, you definitely have to be more discriminating, because not all of those products are going to have ah-mazing results, but that's where the celebrities come in. I mean, if they use it on their Hollywood-worthy locks, then it's probably worth trying. Besides, it's always better to experiment with a new product when it doesn't cost a lot of money, right?
If you want Hollywood-approved hair without a high price tag, shop these seven drugstore hair products celebrities swear by.
