Dry hair can be a real headache when it comes to styling on a daily basis. Dull and brittle, they become difficult to tame. In order to find soft, shiny and healthy hair, discover our recipes for dry hair masks.

Before embarking on homemade dry hair care recipes, you must know how to use them well. First of all, when you apply a dry hair mask, you should avoid the roots. With recipes rich in fatty agents, dry hair treatments can lubricate the hair if applied to the scalp.

For optimal effectiveness, do not hesitate to leave the mask on for a long time: from half an hour to a whole night, the hair needs time to absorb the product.

With a rich dry hair mask, it is best to apply it before shampooing. Washing your hair after the mask will remove all residue, especially with homemade recipes in which the ingredients are denser than in commercial masks. After the mask, we therefore go through the shampoo box. If your hair is really, really dry, top it off with length conditioner for easy detangling. To finish beautifully, give your hair a little cold water to tighten the scales and bring shine to your hair.
