If dry hair conditions aren't corrected, the hair shaft can dry to the point that it becomes brittle and breaks. Don't let your hair reach such an unhealthy point. Deep condition the hair shaft with thirst-quenching moisture with a hydrating product designed to combat brittleness. The best products, as chosen by beauty experts, offer long-lasting moisturizing for softer, shinier locks.

Redken All Soft Conditioner

Haircare expert Paula Begoun tested Redken's All Soft conditioner and said it was "very good." It lacks the hair-coating lacquers that she says will make your hair brittle and infuses your strands with moisture to make them softer. Beneficial ingredients include silk amino acids and natural conditioners such as antioxidant-rich olive oil and avocado oil.

Ojon Restorative Treatment

The deep-conditioning treatment from Ojon comes recommended by InStyle magazine. The magazine liked its butter-like texture and said it helps to "revive dry, brittle hair." It's made with Ojon oil in a thick formula that's spread through the hair and left on for an extended period of time. The manufacturer also adds vitamin E, lecithin--a natural emollient--and additional plant-based oils such as palm oil to deep condition and banish dryness.

Softsheen-Carson Roots of Nature Reconstructing Deep Treatment

Softsheen-Carson's deep conditioner was ranked as one of the world's best beauty products by Elle magazine, which said it helps "strengthen brittle hair." It's formulated with basic conditioners, plus shea butter--this emollient traps moisture in your hair for long-lasting shine and softness--and green tea antioxidants that can help to guard against hair damage.

Leonor Greyl Eclat Naturel

Leonor Greyl's anti-frizz cream was ranked as one of 2010's top seven frizzy hair treatments by InStyle magazine. The editors liked how it improved the nautral shine of brittle hair and kept it protected from the sun with built-in UV filters. The moisturizing power of the cream comes from shea butter and natual jojoba oil, which coat the hair shaft and help to soften the hair.
