Best Leave-in Conditioner
Editors' Pick Winner: Kérastase Initialiste Advanced Scalp and Hair Concentrate
Why: A little goes a long way with this amazingly softening, split-end-concealing treatment -- so impressive that it motivated two vacationing editors to squeeze it into their teeny-tiny TSA-approved liquids bags.

Honorable Mention: Nexxus Hydra-Light Weightless Moisture Leave-In Conditioning Foam

Readers' Choice Winner: It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product
Why: "I love this leave-in conditioner. It conditions my hair, leaving it shiny, and nourished, not greasy. It does not weigh down the hair and has a built-in heat protectant. You just spray it on, comb it out and you're good to go and safe to heat style!! I would totally recommend to everyone."

Honorable Mention: Biosilk Silk Therapy

Best Mousse
Editors' Pick Winner: Oribe Grandiose Hair Plumping Mousse
Why: Oribe's volumizing mousse is king of the new class of hair mousses that leaves hair full, soft and silky.

Honorable Mention: Optimum Salon Haircare Amla Legend Lustrous Body Blow Dry Mousse

Readers' Choice Winner: Tresemmé Thermal Creations Volumizing Mousse
Why: "No flaws in this product whatsoever!! It is perfect!! This mousse is not too thick and sticky like most I have seen on the market. The application is extremely easy and really fun to put on. It gives you plenty (and I mean PLENTY) of va-va-volume. The mousse creates sort of an invisible lifting barrier on your roots. It lifts your hair to the sky and stays there for the whole entire day!"

Honorable Mention: Herbal Essences Body Envy Volumizing Mousse

Best Pomade
Editors' Pick Winner: Rahua Hair Wax
Why: This adds defined, piece-y texture and hold but (shocker!) shampoos out easily. Quite simply, we're in love.

Honorable Mention: Tigi Bed Head Up Front Rocking Gel-Pomade

Readers' Choice Winner: Tigi Bed Head Manipulator
Why: "Because of Bed Head Manipulator, I love my curly hair! I have tried almost every product to get the perfect curls and this alone is the bomb. You only need to use about a nickel-sized dollop for medium-to-long hair. I put it on when my hair is still wet, no blow dry and get perfect curls. The little jar lasts me about a month and a half with everyday usage. So it is a great buy in my book!"

Honorable Mention: Paul Mitchell Foaming Pommade

Best Scalp Treatment
Editors' Pick Winner: Dr. Dennis Gross Root Resilience Anti-Aging Scalp Serum
Why: First, our faces and now, our scalps: We didn't think we needed a dermatologist-created anti-aging treatment for our scalp -- until this came along.

Honorable Mention: Psssst! Clarify & Shine Scalp Treatment

Readers' Choice Winner: Pantene AgeDefy Advanced Thickening Treatment
Why: "I just replaced my husband's usual shampoo and conditioner in the shower with this and after his first use he said, "OK, what's the new stuff you've got me using? Look how much better my hair looks!" Now that he's been using them and the serum daily for a couple of weeks he's even happier with how it's working and I have to agree that his hair actually looks noticeably healthier and thicker! If that's not a glowing recommendation, I don't know what is!"

Honorable Mention: Nioxin System 1 Hair System Kit

Best Shampoo
Editors' Pick Winner: Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Shampoo
Why: This dirt- and oil-repelling, volumizing shampoo left us begging for more. Quite simply, this breakthrough product is the best shampoo we've tried in years.

Honorable Mention: L'Oréal Paris Professional Mythic Oil Shampoo

Readers' Choice Winner: Dove Nourishing Oil Care Shampoo
Why: "Even with thick, dry hair, this shampoo cleaned and moisturized my waves. Fabulous. I hadn't yet even purchased the conditioner and my hair was left soft and frizz-free. Awesome for a drugstore purchase."

Honorable Mention: Pantene Pro-V Normal-Thick Hair Solutions Smooth Shampoo
