Beauty Launchpad's Associate Managing Editor Gabby Bach shares what's on her mind this month: Being from Chicago, I'm no stranger to cold, winter months. These conditions can be very harsh to hair, leaving it stripped of moisture. For that reason, this season means you may need to provide some extra TLC to your strands. One of the best ways to do this is by incorporating a weekly hair mask into your hair care routine. This is something that many clients may be having extra interest in as well, with Blake Lively stirring up a conversation about hair masks with the launch of her new haircare line Blake Brown, which notably features two different hair masks over a traditional conditioner. If you or your clients are on the lookout for a professional, luxurious hair mask this winter, here's five of our recommendations.

Restore hair’s natural vibrancy and health from the inside out with soulfood nourishing mask. This ultra-rich mask is packed with vitamins and nutrients to condition the hair—making it soft, silky and smoother than ever. Used as a weekly treatment or as a daily deep conditioner, this sea buckthorn berry-infused formula is rich and creamy but will never weigh hair down. Like a cool drink of water, this mask quenches hair's thirst and leaves hair manageable, soft and shiny for days. This is one of the first pro hair masks I tried out when I started with Beauty Launchpad, and it is still one of my favorites to this day!
Every client deserves a hair mask that caters to their hair texture's unique needs. Thankfully, milk_shake has an option specifically for clients with curly hair! It's curl passion mask is a nourishing and hydrating mask for curly hair that reduces frizz, helping to nourish and hydrate without weighing curls down. It is enriched with an oil complex from plants from the Amazon rainforest, enveloping the hair and helping to keep hair elastic as well as repairing damage.
Earlier, this year OLAPLEX announced the launch of its new, patented Bond Shaping Technology alongside its three-step Bond Shaper Curl Rebuilding Treatment. Of course, I wanted to try the launch out for myself! After receiving the rebuilding treatment, I was sent home with OLAPLEX No.8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask, which is infused with Bond Shaping Technology. This mask adds shine, smoothness and body while providing intense, weightless moisture for visibly healthier hair. This is a great option if you or your clients are struggling with damaged hair, as it contains a highly concentrated formula that is absorbed deeply to restore moisture.
With cold winter winds, it can be easy for hair to get frizzy and tangled. Thankfully, Wella Professional's Ultimate Repair Mask helps achieve easier detangling. This luxurious mask provides stronger, healthier-looking hair and instant frizz reduction from root to tip. Powered by a patented technology with AHA & Omega-9 that penetrates the hair fiber and supported by an adaptive technology to provide personalized targeted repair according to the damage level of the hair, this mask leaves hair looking hydrated, smooth and healthy.
After the success of Alterna's Caviar Restructuring Bond Repair Intensive Leave-In Treatment Masque, the brand is now reintroducing its Replenishing Moisture Masque. The enhanced mask not only tames frizz and detangles, but also leaves hair feeling deeply conditioned and moisturized for up to 24 hours. Reformulated with care, it's made with a proprietary blend of caviar extract, antioxidants and Omega-3s that nourish, fortify and strengthen each hair strand.
