Did you know that a hair mask (also called deep conditioner) is one of the most important steps for beautiful and healthy curly hair? Not everyone uses it, but within the CG method it is a fixed and indispensable step, even if your hair is not damaged. You use a hair mask once a week and replace the conditioner at that time. A hair mask helps prevent frizz, nourishes your hair and ensures that it falls better into shape. Also beautiful and healthy curls?

How to use a deep conditioner?

A deep conditioner is the same as a hair mask and you use it after washing with shampoo . This is how you use a hair mask for curls the right way:

1. Have you washed your hair with shampoo and rinsed it completely? Then apply the hair mask.
2. Take a generous amount in your palm and distribute it through the lengths of your hair. Avoid applying the product close to your scalp, as this can make your hair greasy faster.
3. Does your hair need some extra care on top? Then gently smooth a little hair mask over those areas.
4. Let the hair mask soak in and follow the processing time indicated on the product. Is there nothing? Then keep it on for at least 10 minutes.
5. Then rinse out the hair mask completely.

How often should you use a hair mask for curls?

There is one clear answer to this: use your hair mask for curly hair once a week. Do you have extremely fine hair? Then read on, there may be another handy tip.

Applying a hair mask to dry hair

Do you have extremely fine hair, a wavy hair type or are hair masks often too heavy for your hair? Then try a dirty deep-co ! Instead of the usual order, apply the mask before using a shampoo and conditioner. Use the hair mask on dry to slightly damp hair and let it soak in. Then wash your hair as usual with shampoo and conditioner.

Benefits of a deep conditioner for curly hair

Using a hair mask weekly has many benefits for curly hair:

• Reduces Frizz : A deep conditioner nourishes and softens your hair, which instantly helps control frizz, especially in humid weather.
• Restores damaged hair : Thanks to the nourishing ingredients, the mask penetrates deep into the hair fibers, restoring and strengthening the hair.
• Provides protection against environmental factors : A mask forms a protective layer around your hair, making it more resistant to influences such as heat, UV radiation and pollution.
• Promotes moisture balance : Curly hair dries out quickly, and a deep conditioner maintains the moisture level. This ensures soft, bouncy curls that are less likely to break.
• Makes curls more manageable : The mask makes your curls easier to comb and less likely to tangle.

Using a coconut oil hair mask for curls

Coconut oil is often added to hair masks to keep your hair hydrated. It also makes your hair less porous (meaning it is less fragile), less frizzy, and helps retain moisture better. If you have porous or damaged hair, coconut oil can really give it a boost. Even if your hair is not porous, it can help with frizz and protect your hair.

However, coconut oil does not work for everyone. Especially with fine or non-porous hair, coconut oil can make the hair feel stiff or dry. This is because the oil can build up on the outside of the hair without being absorbed properly. Although hair masks with coconut oil are suitable for all hair types, you may still want to avoid it.

Difference between a hair mask and a conditioner

Within the CG method you use different types of conditioners: a 'normal' conditioner, deep conditioner and leave-in conditioner:

• Hair Mask : More concentrated and contains ingredients that can penetrate the hair better if it can sit in your hair for a while. You use it after washing with shampoo. It helps to reduce frizz, repair your hair and retain moisture.
• Regular conditioner : Also use after washing with shampoo. It protects your hair, but offers less nutrition than a hair mask and is therefore better suited for use several times a week.
• Leave-in conditioner : Use after rinsing out your conditioner or hair mask and form the basis of your styling routine.
