3 Steps to Get the Most Out of Hair Masks
- Clean Hair First:Use a gentle shampoo free of sulfates to wash your hair and remove dirt along with products of the day.
- Apply Generously:Apply the mask evenly from mid-length to ends. For better even coverage, I use a wide tooth comb.
- Time It:Cover your hair with a towel or shower cap and let it sit for 20 minutes. The longer the better. After this time, rinse all remnants using cool water.
