Beauty Awards 2017: Best Celeb-Loved Hair Products

ESC: Style Awards 2017, Halle Berry
Admit it: You have to care in order to achieve beautiful, red carpet-worthy hair.
And, if you care a lot, chances are you're taking some leaps of faith when it comes to purchasing your hair-care products.
There are so many products on the market. How could you possibly know what really works? Now that 2017 E! Style Beauty Awards have officially commenced, we're celebrating the newly released products responsible for epic hair, where flyways and unruly tresses are rarely seen.
Now, we have to admit that like makeup, many of the celeb-loved hairstylists have business relationships with beauty brands or a hair-care line of their own, so there tends to be some bias. Luckily, our team includes every grade and texture of hair, so we were able to test a lot of products and come together to decide which ones truly deserve an award, so you can walk into your local beauty retailer with confidence.
Based on our testing, we've come to the conclusion that we have similar goals, although we have different hair. Everyone wants fresh-smelling tresses that bounce, shine and feel good to touch. And, these products promise to do just that.
Check out the winners below!

After you spend time curling your hair with a heated wand, you want two things: for your hair to last (you didn't spend all morning the bathroom for nothing!) and remain healthy, despite the heat you just applied. To ensure that happens, Ouai created this memory mist, which is best used prior to applying heat. The formula provides a light hold, extending the length of your style and coats your tresses with thermal protection (up to 450ºF).

Much like micellar water for your face, this cleansing formula removes excess oil, dirt and products from curly hair without stripping it of its moisture. If you have curly or tightly coiled hair, it's essential, reviving hair like a dry shampoo, yet hydrating it like an hair oil.

One of the best parts of a good shampoo is the smell of clean hair. Now you can have fresh hair, smell and all, without water. This dry shampoo lacks the starch-like consistency and white residue of many of its drugstore peers. Although it's less than $10, you can easily compare it to the high-end brands. Plus, it smells like a tropical vacation.

For 2017 Emmys red carpet, the Modern Family star and her hairstylist Charles Dujic opted for simplicity, making the volume and sheen the star. "We ultimately opted for sleek, straight and tucked back with texture on top," he said. "I wanted to give the hair extra lift and root volume, so I sprayed in some of Marc Anthony True Professional Coconut Clear Dry Shampoo to beef it up a bit. This I only sprayed in the root area."
