Salon professionals are sure to offer a deep conditioning treatment each time you visit, but is that once-in-a-blue-moon treatment enough to keep up with a healthy mane? Chances are, it’s not. In fact, a weekly application is recommended for the loveliest locks. The best news yet: you don’t have to visit your salon every time you want an effective deep conditioning treatment. There are many efficient DIY hair masks you can apply right at home to help you achieve that “just left the salon” look!
Our hair is stripped of moisture on a daily basis. The free radicals in the environment, time in the hot sun, the cold wind, the pool; use of blow dryers, curling irons, flat irons, hair sprays, potential chemicals in shampoos… we really put our hair through the wringer. It’s no wonder that, without proper TLC, our hair goes on a hiatus and refuses to shine! (Imagine depriving your skin of lotion for weeks on end!) A hair mask saturates your strands in extra-moisturizing, ultra-conditioning ingredients (many more than are in your everyday conditioner), and provides you with a heavier, more intense conditioning experience than the norm.
A hair mask works to restore moisture. Hydration is the ultimate goal and the master defense against damage such as frizz, split ends, dry, brittle strands, and lack of luster. A Hair Mask locks in moisture and protects against the heat and styling we put our hair through on a consistent basis. It also prevents future damage.
Bring your hair back from the dark side with a deep conditioning treatment that takes just a few minutes each week. Don’t wait for damaged hair to take over; a hair mask doesn’t have to be a last resort. 10-20 minutes weekly in one will repair much of the damage that’s been done over the last seven-plus days, and will create soft, supple, style-ready tresses. Even the busiest of women will admit that it’s possible to find time to slap it on after a wash once each week. After shampooing, towel-dry your hair and apply it. Leave it on while you’re doing chores, paying bills, or online shopping! Rinse out and re-shampoo and condition. With a little effort each week you can reap the benefits of your healthy, shiny hair for days to come.
