The Best Men's Hair Products to Add to a Sephora Cart If You're Suddenly His Stylist, Too
Hair won't stop growing simply because the salon (or barbershop) is closed, and unless we're willing to take matters into our own hands, our hair will get longer and longer and harder to ignore. This is especially true for anyone who usually sports a very short style, as they may suddenly need product (and tools) to keep the growth under control.
If someone you love is struggling with taming this new length — but not so much letting you near with scissors — we searched the men's hair-care category at Sephora to find the cleansing and styling products that other shoppers love most. Or, if you've given this person an at-home trim and you're looking to use that newfound trust to encourage them to try some new products, there's something here for that situation, too.
These products help get hair clean, keep it soft, and create new (or improved) styles, and every single one on this list has earned at least an average four-star rating from other shoppers. Find the top-rated hair-care products under the men's category at Sephora ahead . . . and you just may find something for yourself, too.
