The benefits of deep conditioning extend to hair health benefits like moisture, texture, robustness, and sleekness. While deep conditioning may involve products like egg white yoghurt or onion extracts to strengthen the hair's health effects, how one applies conditioning products often becomes the real deal. The following tips ensure the smoothness of conditioning your hair, leading to deep conditioning that results in a moisture lock.

Air dry, then cool-rinse 

Cool water helps to close the hair cuticles. Other than calming the hair's outer layer, which is comparatively more prone to heat damage caused by the weather or lousy atmosphere, cold water seals in the moisture and gives your hair a shinier appearance.

As you condition, ensure your hair slowly dries up without compromising the conditioner you applied. Prepare cold water to wash off the conditioner applied to your hair.

Co-wash

The term means no involvement of shampoo during the wash. Buy some discrepant conditioning elements of brands per your hair requirements. Instead of shampooing away, use conditioner mixed water to wash off your hair for a lazy rinse or fast wash. Let dry. Use shampoo less to adjust the amounts of hair chemicals applied to your hair and lock the natural moisture.

Dry off soaking drips

As you go for the wash, soak your hair appropriately with water. Soaking your hair doesn't mean you only get wet hair in the aftermath; it should clean off the first layer of water-soluble elements present in your hair.

Use a towel to get rid of the dripping water. Use a fan or air-dry your hair before applying the conditioner. When your hair contains just the appropriate amount of water to call it wet but no water comes dripping off, take your conditioner and apply.

Mix off oils before washing

Oils like argan, coconut, or jojoba act as sealants and help lock the conditioning effects in your hair. Before washing your hair off, apply the warm mixture of the organic oils and massage your hair for at least five minutes. Use hot oil mixtures to rejuvenate your scalp and rub off the alkaline parts grown on your hair.

Leave your conditioner for longer

Avoid rush hours for deep conditioning your hair. Pick hours that allow you to spend at least twenty minutes. Condition your hair for at least twenty minutes to maintain the moisture you receive and lock it. Early morning hours are perfect for deep conditioning as you have enough time to wash and dry your hair.

While drying, warm up 

Apply a warm, water-dampened cloth to relax your hair for a few minutes. Heat opens the hair cuticles and works like therapy for your hair since it helps elements disseminate well. Heat will help the conditioner settle with your hair cells and do its job more appropriately than at room temperature.
