HOW TO APPLY A HAIR MASK PERFECTLY ✨ gloss, bonds, and hair nutrition

this is serious.. to *me* anyways. I feel like.. okay I've had a revolution in my mind about hair masks they are number one for everybody hair health is important for everybody whether you have long hair short hair thick hair fine hair coarse hair at like literally very important and I want to say use a mask because it's important but there's a few things to make it effective because you can use a mask and it doesn't really work so let's fix that the best hair mask out there is the one that you can use consistently again and again and that means it's the one that you can purchase again and again like afford to if it feels like it's expensive or you feel like oh like I'm not sure I don't think it's a good idea you'd be better off with like the five dollar mask versus the 50 mask that you'd have to take like 30 years to research and then you just like want to hold on to it and not use it because it's like fancy like that's not what hair masks are for they're nutrition for your hair and everybody can use them even if you have an oily scalp and really dry ends especially because they don't actually get applied to the scalp if you do it correctly let's go over the types of masks and treatments that are out there since there are a lot and hair technology has come a really long way we have the traditional mask which is what I'm kind of talking about mainly today because I think that this type of hair nutrition is so underused the difference between this and the conditioner is a hair mask is very thick it has a lot less water and to use this correctly you want to shampoo your hair lather it up rinse it all out and then use your mask on damp hair you wouldn't want to apply a mask and then go in and use shampoo you have to rinse after shampoo and then apply it because this shampoo is like detergent so it can really strip away even if it just runs by the length of your hair a lot of the oils and hydration that's supposed to be there so that's the first type of mask but we're going to look at the types of treatment slash masks and there are three in this video this next one is really interesting and could be really helpful a bond repair product like olaplex has a patent on this technology and it is proven to go into the hair shaft inside and repair broken bonds this has a different order of use you actually use this before shampoo on damp hair Bond repair is serious business and it actually has its own order it goes on damp hair before shampoo and you could technically add a mask after now that product is quite expensive but hair glosses are the third type of treatment that I consider to be like a mask and they are usually quite inexpensive these treat the outer layer of the hair whether you're using a lamellar water or a gloss that's more of like a gel and a thick type of cream treatment looks a lot like a mask but these glossing products act on the outside of the hair they don't neutrify or help or rebuild the hair after shampoo you apply this onto wet hair and always follow the instructions based on the product you're using but it's like a top coat and so you shouldn't rely on it to make your hair healthier however it's very protective and it has the most gorgeous result on hair if you've never used a gloss and then you go to try one you will fall in love with the results you use your shampoo rinse it out and then if it's the lamellar water one like this you just rinse it onto your hair and then wait eight seconds and rinse it out it's amazing this will give you that like very commercial line of light in your hair the gloss is for the aesthetic the mask is for the nutrition and bond repair is for Bond repair all three have their place you know and I think it's important to consider using a mask more free frequently and not looking for something that's really expensive like I said because using those hair masks consistently is your best defense against the aggressions of like everyday life and when your hair has that extra elastic from The Mask it can really withstand and not break when it's put in a ponytail or it rubs against your coat or just the weather is cold or dry I always detangle my hair if I remember before I apply a mask because it makes it easier to apply it even once my hair is wet it just is better if it's not all knotted up the biggest mistake with a hair mask is like using it on dry hair because it can't go into the hair that way I can think of like two situations where the protection of a hair mask could be utilitarian to like dry hair but if you actually want to get the benefits of the ingredients you have to use it properly so to do that you rinse the hair after you shampoo so I've used a detox one today because my scalp is really oily and then I got out of the shower and took all the excess water out of my hair by squeezing it out and I'm going to do the mask without being in the shower because I can really focus on what I'm doing this way it's going to take a few dips into this jar starting with about seven inches down from the root I'm gonna do my best to spread the mask but knowing that it has a tendency since it's so thick to kind of Clump up in one area I'll start trying to tube it down the hair but one of the best things you can do is after trying this for a while open the hair back up and see what parts don't have any mask I'm going to dip back into the jar and then add some more and you'll see as you start to massage this in and through the hair it actually starts to disappear a little bit goes from being like bright white and looking like moisturizer or like face lotion to being kind of just not there just wet looking I really squeeze this in through the ends of course the ends need the most coverage since when you really think about it your hair grows like six inches a year so the ends of my hair must be like like I don't know 6 12 15. they must be like 15 years old or so I don't know I don't know about that math but the point is the ends need a lot of help otherwise they will look very aged since they are older hair treatments and at least in this tutorial are usually kept in for like eight or ten minutes and then they get rinsed out so rinse yours out based on the instructions and then reveal and protect your results and don't forget to do it again because this is what helps care for your hair regularly comment below what you're your favorite hair
