A hair mask is a deep-conditioning hair treatment that's designed to give your hair some extra TLC, usually in the form of added moisture or nourishment. Whether your hair is feeling dry and damaged from over-processing, or you just want to give it a little extra shine and softness, a hair mask can be a great option.
How do you use a hair mask?
Typically, you'll want to apply the hair mask to damp hair, spreading it evenly from root to tip and letting it sit for a certain amount of time (typically between 5 to 30 minutes) before rinsing it out.
How often should you use a hair mask?
It depends on your hair type, how often you wash your hair, and how much damage or stress your hair is subjected to. Generally, it's safe to use a hair mask once a week, but you could also use it every other week or even just once a month, depending on your hair care needs. Looking for other nourishing masks?
