As a starting natural, I used to get very obnoxious about adding a hair mask to my beauty routine because conditioner needs every bit of patience for great results. That was until I noticed I was already creating a variety show; coating my hair oils and moisturizers, and rose heat protector before stepping outside (Hotlanta why you so hot?)
Just like skin, hair has to be maintained daily to look and be healthy. There is a huge difference between a protein and conditioning treatment. Protein treatment helps strengthen brittle and sometimes damaged hair making it healthy and thick. Sometimes after you use a protein treatment your hair will often feel excessively dry, this is normal and will only require extra conditioner for a few days. What really matters is the refreshers happening in the scalp. If you love extra soft hair, then this DIY aromatherapy conditioner will help.
