1. What is the difference between this and my conditioner, do I need both?
A conditioner is your daily cream; a mask is your intensive treatment. Your conditioner closes your hair cuticles and softens the outside with every wash. This mask is thicker and more concentrated; it nourishes your hair from the inside out. You do not need both at the same time: your conditioner is your base, and the mask is added when your hair needs extra care.
2. How often can I use this?
Once a week is enough for most people. Do you have very dry or damaged hair? Then you can use it a bit more often for a short period, for example, twice a week. But don't overdo it. Too much nourishment can actually make your hair limp and flat; that's called "over-nourished" hair. Listen to your hair: if it feels soft and healthy, you're on the right track.
3. Do I use this after or instead of my conditioner?
Instead of, not both. Wash your hair with shampoo, and then use the mask where you would otherwise use your conditioner. Doing both in succession is usually too much of a good thing and will weigh your hair down. Only with really heavily damaged hair can you occasionally use conditioner first and then the mask, but that is an exception, not the rule.
4. Does leaving it on longer work better?
Not really, and that is a persistent myth. For daily use, 1 to 2 minutes is enough; the mask does its job quite quickly. Want to treat yourself to some extra pampering? You can apply it generously, wrap it in a warm towel, and leave it on for 15 to 30 minutes. The warmth helps it penetrate better. But leaving it on all night? That’s unnecessary and doesn't add much benefit.
5. Won't such a rich mask make my hair flat and greasy?
Not if you apply it to the right areas and don't use it too often. Stay away from your scalp and roots; apply it to your mid-lengths and ends, where the damage is. Do you have fine hair? Then be sparing and stick to once a week. Rinsing thoroughly is the key. If you do that, your hair will feel soft and full, not heavy.
