How To Do An Intensive Hair Treatment in 5 Easy Steps
Self-care isn’t just a trend; it should be an important part of our daily routine. Self-care keeps us feeling healthier and happier!
When it comes to self-care, we forget about our hair. Just as we sometimes treat our skin with a face mask or body butter, we should treat our hair with some nourishment by doing an intensive hair treatment now and again.
In this guide, we’ll teach you how you can give yourself the ultimate at-home hair mask using our favourite hair tips and tricks. Go on, treat yourself to some deep conditioning!
Five Steps To Perfectly Nourished Hair
Giving your hair some tender love ‘n care doesn’t have to be a long, difficult process. We know many of you live busy, active lifestyles, so we’ve reduced it to five easy-to-follow steps.
Step 1 – Shampoo your hair as usual and towel dry gently. We recommend using a nourishing shampoo with natural ingredients and fragrances to cleanse your scalp. If you have curly hair, try a shampoo specially made to keep your curls intact. Always be very gentle when towel trying, especially if you have fine hair.
Step 2 – Once your hair is towel dried, we recommend brushing through it with one of our Knot Dr Pro hairbrushes (if you live life on the go, take a look at our Knot Dr Pro Mini with headcase!). Our brushes are made specifically to be used on both dry and wet hair –meaning that they won’t rip or damage the hair at all! This will help to untangle your hair and make the next step much easier.
Step 3 – Now your hair is tangle-free, it’s time to apply your treatment. There are many different hair treatments, but we’d select something made from natural or salon-approved ingredients for the best results. You can ask your hairdresser for a recommendation if needed! Take a generous amount of treatment and work it into your hair from the ends up to the roots. Avoid putting any directly on your scalp area, as deep conditioners can sometimes make the scalp feel greasy.
Step 4 – Let the product sit on your hair for 10-15 minutes. For best results, you can insulate your hair with a warm towel or even apply some heat with a hairdryer. However, if you just want to throw the product on and leave it while you watch TV or do the dishes, there’s no harm in that either.
Step 5 – Finally, you will want to rinse the product out of your hair. Make sure to rinse until the water runs clear and no product is left in your hair. Once clean, you can brush it out again with your trusty Knot Dr Pro and decide if you want to air-dry or blow-dry. Say hello to your refreshed hair!
