How To Apply A Hair Mask For Best Results?

Now that you're well-versed in the art of hair masks, let's talk about how to make the most of them. Follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Clean Hair 

Before applying your hair mask, clean your hair and scalp with a sulphate-free shampoo and rinse as usual. Gently towel dry until damp, ensuring your hair is ready to soak up all the goodness.

Step 2: Application 

Once you’ve picked a hair mask tailored to your specific needs, scoop out a generous amount of mask and evenly distribute it through your scalp and hair  focusing on the mid-lengths and ends where damage is often most prevalent.

Step 3: Chill 

Once your hair is coated with the hair mask, it's time to sit back and relax. Our quick-rinse hair masks work their magic!

Step 4: Detangle 

This is the right time to go in with a wide-tooth comb and take out all those knots. The goodness from the hair mask will make the job easier, causing less breakage and tugging.

Step 5: Rinse

Lastly, rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until the mask is completely washed out and then style your hair as usual.
