Frequently Asked Questions about Hair Care
How often should I wash my hair?
There's no hard and fast rule; it depends on your scalp and hair type. The key is to use gentle products that allow for frequent washing without drying out your hair. Listen to your hair!
What is the difference between a conditioner and a mask?
Conditioner acts more superficially and has a short application time. It primarily serves to detangle and close the cuticles after shampooing. Masks are an intensive treatment that works deeply to nourish and restructure; they require a longer application time.
Can I always use the same shampoo or do I have to alternate them?
It's advisable to alternate a gentle shampoo for frequent use with a more specific one (purifying, strengthening, hydrating) depending on your needs. This way, your hair doesn't get used to the same formula over and over again, and your scalp stays balanced.
I can immediately switch to natural if I used products with silicones
Yes, but it takes patience. At first, your hair might look dull because the silicones create a "patina" effect. After a few weeks of consistency, it will gradually become lighter, stronger, and healthier again.
How to dry your hair without damaging it?
Pat dry with a microfiber towel without rubbing, then let air dry if possible. If using a hair dryer, keep it on medium heat and about 20 cm away to reduce heat stress.
