Check out these five frequently asked hair-mask questions from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loreal-paris.co.za\/hair\/hair-care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-mce-target=\"_blank\">L&#8217;Or\u00e9al Paris<\/a> to get you going:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>How do I know if I need a hair mask? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Almost everyone\u2019s hair can benefit from a bit of extra love regularly. If your strands are looking a little limp or those split ends are bothering you, it might be time to try a hair mask on top of your regular hair care routine.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>How often should you use a hair mask? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Depending on your hair type and concerns, you can use a hair mask as often as every wash day or once to twice a week. Follow your mask\u2019s label recommendations or ask a trusted stylist for guidance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Do you use a hair mask before or after shampooing? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Masks should always be applied to wet hair after shampooing. Washing your hair beforehand helps remove impurities and build-up that prevent the mask from absorbing correctly into your strands.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Is it better to put a hair mask on dry or wet hair? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hair masks should be applied to towel-dried hair, not sopping wet. This allows the nutrients to penetrate the strands effectively.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Do you wash your hair after a hair mask? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unless the instructions indicate the formula is a leave-in, you should always rinse off a mask afterwards.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With winter in the air, it\u2019s not only time to change up your wardrobe, but also your haircare routine to keep your hair looking and feeling its best right through the cold season.
