Summer can do a number on our hair. The increased sun exposure, the chlorine from the pool water, the salt from the sea...you name it! Before you know it, your hair is dry and difficult to style so we resolve to just wearing it up. I have added a hair mask to my routine this summer and I find that it really helps.
At first, I was reluctant to start using one because, after reading that you must leave it on for ten minutes after washing the hair, I figured I just didn't have time. With a very active toddler those extra ten minutes just seemed like a luxury out of reach. Then I decided to just start using the mask as a very rich conditioner. Boy did it make a difference. I exfoliate my skin with a salt scrub on the day that I use the hair mask so it sits in a little longer than usual before rinsing but I don't stress about hitting the 10 minute requirement. I know some people will apply the hair mask and let it sit while they do stuff around the house. I have not tried this approach.
This is the hair mask that I've been loving lately. It's great for dry, damaged, or chemically-treated hair. If you color your hair, you are likely a little on the dry side anyways so you will definitely benefit from a weekly mask treatment. If we use masks on our skin, why not make it a habit to use one on our hair too?
This mask delivers key vitamins like biotin to help repair the hair and natural oils like fatty acids and almond oil for hydration, shine and frizz control. I can definitely tell a difference in my hair after heat styling. I like that Briogeo's products are cruelty-free, 98% naturally-derived and formulated without harsh chemicals. In addition they are also gluten-free which is hard to find.
Do you regularly use a hair mask too? Which one's your favorite? Let me know in the comments below.

I have heard such good things about this mask. I love that it uses mostly safe ingredients because I am so picky about that. I currently use a mask but will have to give this one a try when I’m out. And I totally hear you on the ten minutes is a luxury we mamas don’t have. I also use mine on the day I exfoliate my face and use my body sugar scrub to help maximize time!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment! I love hearing that you look for safe ingredients in beauty products and find time for self-care too in your day. It's so important for us Mamas!
