Important Tips for Using Hair Care Products

Buying hair care products is effective when you know how to use them correctly; otherwise, it might even cause additional damage. In the following, we explain the most important tips for using these products. 

• Only wash your hair when it is dirty or oily; daily washing is not necessary. Remember to massage the shampoo onto the scalp, not the hair shaft.
• Apply conditioner and mask only to the mid-lengths and ends, not the roots and scalp; only then will hair moisture be revived.
• Apply serum and spray to damp hair after the bath. Hair tonic should be massaged onto a clean scalp and does not require rinsing. 
• Hair oil is best left on the mid-lengths overnight or used before a bath.
• In a hair care routine, it is recommended to apply products from thinnest to thickest consistency; that is, start with light products (serum, toner) and then thicker ones (cream, oil) so that each layer is fully absorbed. 
• Before using hair care products, first try a small amount on the skin behind your ear or on your forearm and wait 24 hours to ensure you do not have an allergic reaction to the ingredients. 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best hair mask for damaged hair?

The appropriate mask for damaged hair should contain effective ingredients like keratin, protein, argan oil, shea butter, vitamin E, and be free of sulfates and parabens. Among the best restorative hair masks, we can mention: LaFerr hair mask, Dove restorative mask, and Neoderm keratin mask.

Hair serum suitable for color-treated hair should have what characteristics?

The serum for color-treated hair should have characteristics such as heat protection, color retention, and anti-frizz, containing effective ingredients like jojoba oil, keratin, lightweight silicones, and antioxidants. Neoderm two-phase serum, L'Oréal color protect serum, and Sinere hydrating serum are among the good products available on the market. 

What is the difference between a hair mask and a conditioner?

Hair mask is deep and restorative, used for treating damage and rebuilding hair structure, and it is recommended to use it once or twice a week only on the mid-lengths. Conditioner, however, merely functions to increase softness and prevent tangling, and you can use it after every wash.

The most important measures recommended for treating split ends and dry hair are: avoiding daily washing with strong shampoos, regularly trimming the ends, using hydrating and restorative masks, and using a wide-tooth comb.

Argan oil is restorative, anti-frizz, and suitable for dry and color-treated hair. Jojoba oil is recommended for thin and oily hair. Coconut oil has hydrating and anti-split-end properties, and avocado oil, being rich in various vitamins, is suitable for damaged hair.
