A hair masque is a deep conditioning treatment that is applied to the hair and left on for a period of time, typically 20-30 minutes. Masques are more intensive than conditioners and are designed to penetrate the hair shaft and repair damage. They can be used to improve the condition of dry, damaged, or color-treated hair.
Hair masques are typically made with a blend of natural oils, butters, and extracts. Common ingredients include coconut oil, shea butter, avocado oil, and honey. These ingredients help to nourish and moisturize the hair, leaving it feeling soft, smooth, and shiny. Masques can also help to repair damage caused by heat styling, sun exposure, and chemical treatments.
