how to use hair conditioner

To use hair conditioner properly, follow these steps:

1. Wash hair with shampoo and rinse thoroughly.
2. Squeeze out excess water from hair so it is damp, not dripping wet.
3. Pour a quarter-sized amount of conditioner into your hands.
4. Apply conditioner mainly to the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, avoiding the scalp to prevent weighing hair down.
5. Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to distribute the conditioner evenly and gently detangle hair.
6. Let the conditioner sit on your hair for 1 to 3 minutes (as indicated on the product label).
7. Rinse the conditioner out thoroughly with water until your hair feels clean and no slippery residue remains.

For leave-in conditioners, apply to towel-dried hair after showering and comb through to distribute evenly. Leave-in conditioner is not rinsed out and can help with moisture and detangling. This routine helps keep hair soft, moisturized, and manageable without weighing it down or causing buildup.
