Best Leave-In Hair Treatments for Glass Hair
You’ve heard of glass skin, but have you considered glass hair? The term was originally coined to describe hair that is ultra-smooth, shiny and reflective, unburdened by frizz, damage or flyaways. There are many ways to achieve such healthy strands and a polished appearance, but we have a soft spot for leave-in treatments: they’re convenient to use post-shower as you can apply it and leave it to work its magic, plus there are many types of treatments to suit different types of hair. Below are 7 of our top K-beauty and J-beauty recommendations to help you secure glass hair with practically zero effort, focusing on damage repair, smoothing frizz and, of course, upping shine. Keep reading on for everything you need to know.

We love milky products for our skin, and it turns out milky haircare is just as nice. The ORBIS Essence In Hair Milk is a J-beauty top-ranker, beloved by beauty enthusiasts for its ability to smooth dry and rough hair and bring shine to a lackluster mane. Made to be applied on towel-dried or dry hair, it creates a pseudo cuticle around each strand to improve moisture retention and tame frizz with ease.
