Just like our skin, our hair experiences a lot of stress – we put it through strains like heat styling, product build up and chemical coloring, causing damage, breakage and dryness. We should be mindful to give our hair that extra TLC like we would do with our skin!  

Enter: hair masks. It’s like a face mask for your hair and acts as a deep conditioning treatment made with nourishing ingredients like natural oils and butters at a higher concentration than conditioners. Hair masks are best used for hydrating, repairing and strengthening dull, damaged hair. Here’s a quick breakdown of all its benefits: 

Hydrates + Deep Conditions - The use of natural oils (for example: sunflower, argan, coconut) are rich in vitamins to deliver soft, smooth, shiny, healthy-looking hair. That extra level of concentration works to provide essential moisture to strands and tame frizz. 

Repairs + Strengthens - Any breakage, damage or split ends you may experience can benefit from hair masks because they contain restorative ingredients (like plant or wheat protein) and work from the inside out to leave hair more resilient.  

How to Use a Hair Mask

Here’s a step-by-step on how to use hair masks. 

Step 1: Apply to wet hair 

After washing and rinsing your hair with shampoo, apply a generous amount to the hair. 

Step 2: Spread evenly throughout hair 

Distribute the hair mask on your mid-lengths to ends and massage thoroughly on particularly damaged areas. Use your hands or a comb to ensure your hair is evenly covered. 

Step 3: Wait! 

Leave on hair for 2-5 minutes unless otherwise specified. In the meantime, unwind and let the mask work its magic! 

Step 4: Rinse and Style 

Be sure to rinse out hair thoroughly before drying. Style as desired! 

How to Use a Hair Mask - Applying Hair Mask on Hair

Frequently Asked Questions: 

How often should you do a hair mask? Depending on your hair’s needs, you can use a hair mask 1-3 times a week. Generally, you should use a deep conditioning, moisturizing treatment at least once a week, but if your hair is more dry or damaged than usual, increase to 2-3 times a week.  

Do you use conditioner after a hair mask? Traditional conditioners are meant for daily use following a shampoo. Hair masks are similar to conditioners but are more concentrated and focused on providing restorative care for those extra strengthening and sustaining benefits. While both conditioners and hair masks are recommended to use in your hair routine for healthy hair, you should replace your conditioner with the hair mask 1-3 times a week rather than using one after the other in a single wash.  


How long should you leave a hair mask in?
You should leave in a moisturizing hair mask for at least 3-5 minutes, but depending on the type of mask and your hair’s needs, you may leave it on longer for anywhere between 10-15 minutes. Be mindful to not leave a hair mask on damp hair for too much longer than instructed use as it can cause hair to become too moisturized and prone to breakage.   

Can you leave a hair mask in overnight? Yes! If you’re working with hair that’s already dry, you can leave in a hair mask overnight.
