My hair used to get really dry too. And I was always wondered. And once I started doing my hair mask regularly, and paying more attention to my hair routine, I noticed such a difference. Look how silky and shiny this is. So I found the hair mask and taking care of my hair regularly, hair routine, such a difference. Now my hair feels more soft and moisturized. And I get fewer split ends. So today, I'm showing you my complete beginner-friendly, step-by-step hair mask routine. So grab your hair mask and let's get that healthy, shiny hair with me. Are you ready? Let's go! Hi guys, welcome back to my channel. Today, I'm going to teach you how to put your hair mask on properly. And in a better way. There's a lot of tips. You gotta get it. So watch it until the end. Let's go! Okay, girls. First thing first, brush your hair. And this is important even when you're not doing a hair mask. Ideally, I would say carry a brush with you and brush your hair through the day. But let's be real. I know, I forget and I'm lazy sometimes too. Try to brush your hair at least twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night before bed. For everyday brushing, I personally love a bamboo or wooden brush. And look for one with rounded tips like this instead of really sharp ones. Since the brush also touches your scalp, I don't want anything sharp, scratching or irritating it. I love gently running the rounded tips over my scalp. It feels like a little scalp massage. Girl, if you only have a plastic brush, that's totally fine too. But just from my personal experience, wooden brush worked really well for me. The important point is to brush your hair regularly and as much as you can. Grab whatever hair treatment or hair mask you already have at home. Then grab a small bowl so we can mix everything together. This is Flounder from The Little Mermaid and I'm gonna use him today because we're all mermaids. Say hi! I'm going to add a few drops of oil. Today I'm using rosehip oil. Just a few drops, you don't need a ton. The hair mask I'm using today is also pretty thick. So it can be a little difficult to spread out through my hair. So I'm adding a little bit of brown hair mask to make the consistency easier to work with. I basically want it creamy enough to spread easily. And I'm mixing everything with a plastic brush. When I'm applying mask or oil, I don't use my wooden brush because the product can soak into the wood and eventually damage it. So save your wooden brush for regular brushing and use a plastic one for your hair treatment. Once you mix them well, ta-da! Our hair mask is ready! It is very important guys. Before you put any mask on, you gotta wet your hair. Because I have a hairspray, I'm just gonna use the hairspray to wet my hair. But don't worry, if you don't have the spray bottle, don't worry. You can wet your hair with your hands. Just gently run them through your hair. Now let's apply our hair mask. I like to start with the area where needs the most attention, which for me are the ends. The ends are the oldest part of our hair. So they tend to be drier and more prone to damage and split ends. So I'm really focusing the products from the middle length down, especially on my ends. I also give a little extra attention to the outer layer of my hair. Because they're more exposed to sunlight, heat and everything else throughout the day. So you can just work section by section. Make sure the product is distributed nice and evenly. And remember girls, we are focusing on the hair, not the scalp. Now here's one of my favorite tips. Once the mask is done, I like to give a gentle massage into our hair. I actually picked up this technique when I worked at a salon and watched how the professionals applied the treatment. Instead of just putting the mask on and leave it there, gently squeeze and work the products through your hair. I like to imagine I'm helping the treatments coat every strand. It's really up to you, but I didn't be so gentle. I was like tapping my hair. But it actually works more for my hair. So if your hair is healthy enough, you can do it just like me. Arms gonna hurt. So just do it as much as you comfortably can do. Hair care doesn't have to be exhausting. I think doing small things consistently is much more realistic than doing one huge routine and never wanting to do it again. Now I'm going to put my hair up and leave the mask for about 20 minutes. Or whatever amount of the time that this direction on your specific products recommend. And here's another little tip for you guys. When my hair is wet and covered in product, I personally avoid clip with metal parts. They're going to be sitting against wet products covered hair and repeatedly exposed to moisture can eventually damage or corrode some metal parts. So instead, I use an old rubber hair tie. And guys, I'm not gonna lie. I've been using this for four years now. Four years! And that's still alive. So I personally love those old rubber hair tie for treatments. Okay, the mask is on. Now we wait. I'm gonna leave mine on for about 20 minutes. So I'm gonna go and get some lunch. See you in 20 minutes. To look warm water, not a hot water. And listen up, because here's an important tip. When I rinse out a heavy hair treatment, I try to keep the rinse water from running all over my body, especially my back. Hair products are designed for your hair and reside for heavy products. May irritate or clog the skin for some people. And back breakouts? I don't think so. No, thank you. So I usually lean to the side like this or bend forward and rinse my hair separately. Just be careful with your back. I'm going to do this quickly because this position is not exactly comfortable. But make sure you rinse really thoroughly. Keep rinsing until the water runs clear. There's no more form and your hair doesn't feel coated or slippery with products anymore. Then you're done. I'm done. Now grab your towel, girls. But please do not rub your hair. Wet hair is more vulnerable to friction and breakout. So I do not want to rub roughly. Instead, gently press, squeeze, or pat out the water. Now let's dry our hair. And yes, we are drying the scalp too. I do not like leaving my scalp wet for a long time. Remember, your scalp is skin too. So take care of it just like you take care of your skin on your face. When I blow dry, I avoid blasting my hair with the hottest setting the entire time. Instead, I switch between warm and cold air. Cold air alone would be great from a heat damage perception. But I also don't want to spend my entire day drying my hair, right? So warm, cold, warm, cold. That's another technique I picked up while working around salon professionals. And here's something I'm especially careful about. When I'm drying the hair around my hairline and face, I prefer using colder air. For the thicker section underneath, I will alternate between warm and cold. And pay attention to the direction of your dryer. I like to point the airflow from the root down towards the ends. Not from underneath, blowing everything upwards. So remember, top to the bottom. Blowing downwards helps the hair lie smoother and can reduce that fluffy, frizzy look. Once my hair is partially dry and still has a little moisture left, I'm going in with hair oil. Today I'm using this one. I take a small amount, rub it between my paws really well. And then apply it mainly to the ends of my hair. I do not put a huge amount near my roots because I do not want my hair looking greasy. Just focus on the length and especially those dry ends. Then I'm going to gently brush through my hair again. Distribute everything. And now we finish drying. Blow again downwards. Almost done. As my final step, I'm going to give my hair one last gentle brush. And finally, we're done. Look at this. That's my full hair mask routine. I usually do a hair mask about once a week and sometimes up to twice a week. Depends on how my hair feels and what the product's instructions recommend. You definitely do not have to do everything perfectly. Start simple, use what you already have, and most importantly, be consistent. Healthy looking hair doesn't happen from doing one treatment once. It's all about little habits we keep doing over and over time. So let's take care of our hair together and get that soft, smooth, silky hair.
