Conditioning Treatments and How They Help Your Hair
Damage prevention
Regular conditioning can prevent damage from sun, thermal tools, and chemicals, like hair color.
Infuse moisture
Your hair needs moisture to make the hair healthy. Without moisture hair becomes dry, brittle, and more prone to breakage and split ends.
Promotes elasticity
Dry hair snaps and breaks when pulled, combed, or brushed. To combat breakage, nourish, strengthen, and moisturize your hair with conditioners containing proteins or amino acids; look on the bottle for ingredients like shea butter, panthenol, or vitamin B5, flax seed, acai fruit, or goji fruit. To improve strength and elasticity, use products that contain natural oils like argan, olive, and sun flower.
Adds shine and luster
Chemical damage, environmental stressors, heat styling, and even the daily grind can rob your hair of shine and luster, leaving it flat and lifeless. A conditioning mask can repair damage and smooth the hair shaft, bringing back movement and shine.
Curly or Textured Hair
If you have curly/textured hair, look for products designed to add moisture and keep frizz at bay. It’s a 10 Miracle Silk Mask, Redken All Soft Mega Mask, or DESIGNLINE Triple Effect Leave-in Conditioner are good options.
Fine Hair
If you have fine hair, use products that are described as light or weightless. Biolage Volumebloom Aqua Gel Conditioner or DESIGNLINE Weightless Dry Oil Leave-in are great picks.
Damaged or Stressed Hair
If you have damaged, stressed hair, choose products that strengthen and add protein to the hair like Redken Extreme Mega Mask and Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Wild Ginger Keratin Intensive Treatment.
