Do you know which hair mask is right for your hair? You’re looking for a great hair mask, but have no idea what suits your hair type. One hair mask repairs, another conditions, and some do both. So it can be quite difficult to figure out which hair mask is right for you. That’s why we’ve put together this handy guide to help you choose the best hair mask. Get healthy, radiant locks.
What is a hair mask?
According to Amika Styling Education Specialist Christina Carlsson, you can best compare the effects of a face mask to those of a hair mask. Just like a face mask, a hair mask conditions your hair.. “It adds extra moisture and addresses your specific needs.”
One misconception about hair masks is that they’re too heavy for oily hair. This isn’t true, however. “The dry ends of your hair actually contribute to the oil production cycle, and masks (applied from the mid-lengths to the ends) help bring better balance to the overall health of your scalp and hair.” But how do you choose the right mask for your hair type and needs?
