What are your Holy Grail products?

[school of fish]

I've not exactly had the experience of finding a holy grail product, but rather a routine - my hair seems to thrive more from a low-maintenance but consistent daily/weekly routine more than any specific product. That said, here are the things that best support my HG routine:

-henna
-clear sulphate shampoos & thick conditioners with light 'cones (Pantene Ice Shine has been brilliantly reliable)
-acidic rinses
-Tangle Teezer (dry) & moderately wide-toothed plasic comb (wet)

I'm in an area of Canada where winters are a deep freezer and summers are a sauna

Updating mine to add Tresemme Perfectly UnDone as another great performer for me. Looks like my hair can do well with either a coney or cone-free conditioner.

My routine remains the same and still works beautifully for me

My HGs (Australia)

-Ecostore everyday shampoo (stopped COing recently)
-Avocado oil, finally managed to find an oil my hair actually likes.
-Sukin Nourishing conditioner
-Herbal essences Hello Hydration-whatever cones are in here my hair seems to love!

I am adding my Lidl gels to the list (they are pretty great, the men's as well as the women's version, do like the men's version a little more, though). I am going to be testing the new Aldi gels next to see if they compare or are better.

The Garnier Fructis sleek and shine leave in.. It's sooo nourishing, my hair sucks it up completely so no build up and it cured my crunchy ends! Love it. Leave-ins had never done much for me until I tried this stuff.

Olive oil - A year ago my hair got super brittle after using a conditioner that wasn't right for me, and a hot oil treatment brought my hair back to life, so just for that this stuff deserves HG status.

What are your HGs, Holy Grail products? Also maybe state your location, as it is important because not all products can be gotten internationally.

I'll start (I'm in Belgium BTW).

- Herbal Essences Hello Hydration conditioner

I just tried this along with its corresponding shampoo - You recommended it to me, got to say, it did feel real nice, while washing it, very soft, its not dry yet, but so far so LOVING it I like especially that I can just get it in the supermarket. Its global a global product

-Garnier Whole Blends Green Apple Shampoo & Conditioner (the shampoo is for the length of my hair, not my scalp since it's not cleansing enough).
-Inecto Argan/Coconut Shampoo (for my scalp)
-Mane N Tail Shampoo & Conditioner (for both my scalp and the length of my hair when it needs protein, I've found using a little dab of the conditioner in with my GWB is working well. The shampoo I use every two weeks or so.)
-LUSH R&B Hair Moisturizer (avocado butter based, I use a pea-sized amount as a leave-in).
-Garnier whole Blends Green Apple 5-in-1 Spray (as a leave-in and detangler)
-Jojoba Oil
-Argan Oil

I have a routine based around these products that is working amazingly for me. Since using these I have maybe one or two visible splits in my hair at any given time.

P.S: When my hair needs some extra moisture and heavier cones/detangling properties I use the Garnier Whole Blends Honey masque.

My hair hates: Penetrating oils and large proteins. I'm still trying to find a way to work a little bit of penetrating oils into my routine to help prevent hydral fatigue, but my hair has hated every attempt.

It truly is. I think there's few places where you can't get this. Glad you like it that much!

USA -- california

Shampoo for SD: Selsum Blue (this is occasional)
Clarifying: Neutrogena anti residue -- this stuff is great
I mostly co-wash and I adore the GVP matrix moisturizing balm for my co wash.
I own the sallys GVP and the actual matrix version, and I actually really like the GVP version more!

Other than that, I love me some coconut oil and EVOO.
I want to keep it simple so I know what works and what doesnt, and so far so good.
OH --- I also really love my tangle teezer and hair stick.

I have a stock of SMT and fox shea butter and ACV rinses and cat nip tea, but the above has been my HG.
