The Best Multi-Purpose Hair Products That Actually Work

We hate to break it to you, but having healthy hair doesn't always come easily.

Even if you were naturally gifted with long, luscious locks, there's still a lot of work—and products—involved in styling and maintaining them. From creams, gels, sprays and oils to flat irons, curling wands and so much more, the things you use to keep up with your hair's demands can quickly start to clutter up your counters (and cabinets and drawers—you get the idea).

To save yourself some much needed space, time and money trying to cater to your hair's unique needs, multi-purpose products are something you may want to think about investing in. Not all are actually worth the hype, though, which is why we went ahead and put together a list of the ones that actually work. Get ready to enjoy a cleaner space and healthier, happier hair with the following.

This Professional-Grade Heated Hairbrush: $99

Spending almost $100 for a hairbrush may sound like something only a Kardashian would do, but trust us when we say that this one is well worth the price. The Triangl Pro Heated Detailer Brush from Calista Tools is not your average brush; it's an innovative styling tool featuring Ionic Technology that lets you straighten, direct, flip and de-frizz your hair all in one cute and convenient tool. Designed with softly tipped teeth that are precisely placed to prevent tangles, this advanced brush eliminates the threat of knots (and bad hair days). The best part? The triangular-shaped plates prevent damage to your hair by diffusing direct heat, allowing you to get the sleek, shiny hair of your dreams without risking your hair's health in the process. Oh, and there's even a mini-version available in case you need to save even more space during all your travels, even if you're only traveling to and from gym class.

This Mess-Free Hair Product Applicator: $30

If you use any kind of liquid product on your hair (and we know you do), you're probably familiar with the mess that can be involved. Even if all you use is a leave-in conditioner, you still probably know the feeling of having clumped product all over your hands from trying to get it evenly distributed throughout your strands. Thankfully, Dye Candy has come through with their viral Hummingbird Flow Control Dye and Oil Applicator System. The patented system cleanly parts the hair and applies the perfect amount of product, keeping your hands clean and helping you prevent dripping any messy products on your body or bathroom floor. At just $30, it's an absolute must-have for DIY hair dye lovers and fans of oil treatments alike.

This Color-Enhancing Shampoo: $43

This color-enhancing shampoo (also available in a conditioner) from äz helps you do just that, all from one absolutely gorgeous bottle. Free from parabens, sulfates and other nasty ingredients nobody wants and filled with cuticle fiber-restoring ingredients instead, this shampoo is all you need to maintain smooth, shiny locks. Plus, your color will last longer than if you used a regular shampoo, which saves you money and time long-term by avoiding extra salon visits.

This Combination Blowout Brush: $67

Plus, it works well even when you're in a rush, making it a lazy girl's absolute dream.
