Conditioner

Conditioner is the essential second step in your hair-washing routine, designed to restore what the cleansing process has removed. While shampoo cleans the hair, it can also raise the hair’s cuticle and leave it feeling stripped. Conditioner’s primary job is to replenish moisture, smooth the cuticle, reduce friction between strands to prevent breakage, and improve the overall softness and manageability of your hair.

The magic of conditioner lies in its formulation. Conditioners are typically formulated with a slightly acidic pH to help flatten and seal the hair cuticle, which immediately boosts shine and smoothness. They contain a blend of moisturizing and softening ingredients that are often positively charged. These ingredients are attracted to the negatively charged areas of damage on your hair, allowing them to cling to the surface and provide targeted conditioning right where it’s needed most.

For best results, conditioner should be applied to the part of your hair that needs it most: the mid-lengths and ends. This is the oldest and typically most damaged part of your hair. Applying conditioner to the roots can weigh hair down and lead to a greasy scalp. Squeeze out excess water before applying to ensure the product can penetrate effectively.
