Understand What Keratin Does

Keratin is a protein naturally found in your hair, and it's responsible for its strength and shine. 

Keratin hair masks contain this protein to help repair and nourish your hair, making it smoother and more manageable.

Choose the Right Mask

Select a high-quality keratin hair mask suitable for your hair type.

There are options for dry, damaged, fine, or curly hair, so pick one that addresses your specific needs.

Start with Clean Hair

Before applying the mask, make sure your hair is clean and free of product buildup. Use a clarifying shampoo to remove any residues.

Towel Dry Your Hair

Gently towel dry your hair to remove excess moisture. 

Your hair should be damp, not dripping wet, to allow the mask to penetrate effectively.

Apply the Mask

Take a generous amount of the keratin mask and distribute it evenly through your hair, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends. 

Comb it through for even coverage.

Allow the Mask to Work

Follow the instructions on the mask's packaging for the recommended time. 

Typically, it's around 15-30 minutes, but it may vary depending on the product.

Rinse Thoroughly

After the allotted time, rinse the mask out completely with lukewarm water.

Ensure there's no residue left in your hair.

Air Dry or Blow Dry

You can let your hair air dry for a natural look or use a blow dryer for a smoother finish. 

Apply a heat protectant if you choose to blow-dry.

Repeat as Needed

The frequency of using a keratin mask depends on your hair's condition. 

For damaged hair, using it once a week can yield excellent results. 

For maintenance, use it every few weeks.
