How To Condition Your Hair Properly
- ›Mid-lengths and ends only. Never scalp.
- ›Leave on 60 seconds minimum, longer for damaged hair.
- ›Rinse with cool water for shine.
Conditioner is a moisturizer, not a shampoo. It goes where hair is oldest and driest — not where it's freshly grown.
Where to apply
Mid-length down to the ends. Never on the scalp — it weighs down roots and leads to greasy hair by lunch.
How long
60 seconds is enough for daily conditioner. 2–5 minutes for a weekly deep conditioner.
Rinse temperature
Final rinse in cool water tightens the cuticle and adds shine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I skip conditioner if my hair is oily?+
No. Apply to ends only. Ends are still dry even when the scalp is oily.
