Deep conditioning is something that you may never need to do if you can keep your hair in a good shape through other measures, including regular conditioning. If your hair gets damaged or dry, however, if you tend to bleach and dye it frequently or if it\u2019s just naturally drier, deep conditioning your hair every once in a while can be a great way to breathe new life and freshness into your locks.<\/p>\n

How does deep conditioning<\/a> work, however, and what do you need to do?<\/p>\n

In essence, deep conditioning can be done even with a regular conditioner and it can be as simple as leaving it on for a while longer. If your hair definitely needs deep conditioning, however, you\u2019d do well to go through the steps below a bit more meticulously.<\/p>\n

Step-by-step guide for deep conditioning your hair<\/h3>\n

Deep conditioning is also referred to as \u201chair masks\u201d because it involves leaving the conditioner or other DIY masks on your hair for an extended period of time, often by covering it with a shower cap as well. What type of mask you\u2019re going to need depends a lot on your hair\u2019s needs but there are generally two types of deep conditioning masks:<\/p>\n

  1. Protein-based deep conditioning masks.<\/li>\n
  2. Moisturizing deep conditioning masks.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The goal of the first is to give your hair as much nutrition and strength as possible while the goal of the second is to moisturize dry hair. There are \u201cin-between\u201d masks that do both relatively well too so choosing your mask is the first important step for a successful deep conditioning procedure. Whether you choose a commercial conditioner or you make a mask with some of the ingredients in your kitchen, however, the step-by-step guide for the deep conditioning itself remains relatively similar:<\/p>\n

    1. Wash your hair<\/h4>\n

    If your hair is in a bad shape, using a strong shampoo can be ill-advised, however, you do need to wash your hair properly so you\u2019ll still want to use a gentle shampoo to get the job done.<\/p>\n
