The fall season is in full swing, and one beauty trend is emerging as a strong contender for the honor of most-wanted: drastic hair styles. Everyone seems to be on hair watch by taking more risks with their 'dos, opting to chop it all off, add some braids, or dye it all colors of the rainbow. There's no question, we love being a bit reckless with hair choices, but if there's anything we're hesitant to change about our hair, it's the texture. Wether thick, wild curls or thin pin straight locks are what you're born with, taming said tresses can be a constant battle. But working what you were born with can produce some amazing results—here are the best hair products for you to get your curly or straight hair looking its best!
