Luxury hair masks: richness and contact time

Separating richness from claims of repair

A mask may improve feel, flexibility or appearance depending on its formulation, but thickness does not prove permanent repair of the hair fibre. Fine hair, bleached lengths and dry curls have different requirements. Examine targeted instructions and recommended quantities rather than automatically selecting the densest texture as the strongest available treatment.

Allowing the intended time before assessing styling

Contact time belongs to the directions, and extending it routinely does not guarantee a better result. Distribute the product over the specified areas and rinse carefully. Detangling, softness after drying and retained volume help determine whether the mask deserves a regular place or only occasional use in the haircare routine.
