Is your hair dull and lifeless? So he needs a good nutrition mask! Also check out the best brands to invest in!
Do you know when your hair is rough, full of frizz and lifeless? Sometimes all he needs is a good nourishing mask!
The nutrition mask is essential for maintaining hair health and is made up of essential oils. Basically, it gives the strands the necessary oil to ensure the protection of the hair fibers. Furthermore, it is also responsible for ensuring the replacement of hair lipids. They are what give the hair that gallant and lush shine and bounce.
But the most important thing is that the nutrition mask is essential so that the hair can maintain hydration within the strand structure, much more efficiently and for much longer. That’s why it’s important to invest in masks based on oils, such as coconut, olive and avocado.
It’s worth remembering that regardless of whether you have oily, dry, straight or curly hair: all types of hair need periodic treatment to restore lost nutrients and lipids.
The benefits of the nutrition mask
Firstly, right after applying the nourishing mask, your hair will feel much softer and when it dries, it will be much shinier. Hair nutrition reinforces the protection barrier formed by the natural oil produced in the scalp. Therefore, it forms a layer of protection on the hair that leaves a silky touch, facilitates detangling and enhances luminosity.
The nutrition mask also helps combat frizz and control volume. So, due to the protective layer, the cuticles that cover the hair are aligned with each other and sealed. Therefore, they prevent the formation of that terrible chill, which terrifies us so much.
You can also say goodbye to split and dry ends, as the lipids present in hair nutrition are rich in fatty acids, a very important source of antioxidants for the hair. Which protect against all aggressions that cause weakening of the hair fiber, including split ends.
At the same time, it also provides long-lasting hydration. Since the hair’s natural water remains inside the strands, in a place called the hair cortex. The cuticles function as a barrier that prevents all this hydration from being lost when the cuticles are not sealed. This way, the nutrition mask helps seal these cuticles.
How often to use the nutrition mask?
It is recommended to apply it at least once a week. Thus, when programmed through a hair schedule, it nourishes, hydrates and repairs the hair even more.
How to use the nutrition mask?
First, you must wash your hair with shampoo and then separate your hair into at least four sections. It is important to apply the mask, strand by strand, so that all strands are covered and can absorb the oils from the cream.
And if you want to reinforce the treatment even further, you can add a tablespoon of your preferred oil and mix it with the mask. Furthermore, moisturizing is also a great option to further enhance hair nutrition.
How to identify a nutrition mask?
Nutrition masks are those that have oil in their composition. It can be almond, apricot, argan, silicone oil and so on. In addition, they may also contain arginine, proteins, ceramides, soy, shea butter, amino acids and keratin complex. But oils are its main composition. It is not always clear on the packaging that it is a nutrition mask. That’s why it’s important to read the product’s composition.
