K18 Hair Mask – A Damage Repair Game Changer

Hair mask products have been on the market for a long time, but recently they have begun to gain popularity. This is in part due to the arrival of revolutionary new options like the K18 hair treatment that repairs molecular bonds and strengthens the hair from the microscopic level on up. The result is less frizz, more shine, and overall healthier hair.

What Is a Hair Mask?

Hair mask treatments are periodic deep moisturizing and conditioning products designed to provide additional support beyond your daily conditioner. Depending on the formula, the approach could be as simple as providing nutrient support and moisture keyed to your body chemistry. It could also be as complex as the K18 hair approach to strengthening molecular bonds.

How Often Should You Use K18 Hair Mask?

If your hair is noticeably dry and dehydrated as it tends to be after long exposure to the sun during summer or bleaching and dying treatments, then consider using it instead of your regular conditioner in every shower until your hair rebounds. This hair regimen is designed to be used in place of a leave-in conditioner at every shower, but some people choose to alternate it with a conditioning product or to use it periodically to address specific hair issues.

Try it out as directed for a few weeks and see how your hair feels. Oily hair types often find a product like K18 hair provides soft, bouncy curls without adding to the hair’s natural balance of oils. Dry hair types pick up additional moisture that is needed to keep hair healthy, too, making it a rare product that works as a daily application for practically every hair type.

Intensive Hair Mask Treatments

You can use a hair mask as a leave-in conditioner for intensive moisture treatments, but many people who use it also occasionally use an approach that is similar to that used with a facial mask.

• Wash your hair and use your normal rinse-through conditioner
• Apply the K18 Hair product liberally throughout your hair until it is thoroughly wet
• Cap your hair and wait 20-45 minutes
• Uncap and leave it in as directed to air dry as you go about your day

This intensive masking treatment holds as much moisture as possible in, giving the hair mask time to work thoroughly without drying out. Since K18 hair treatment is designed to strengthen bonds at the molecular level, this approach gives it a lot of time to work.

K18 recommends the daily approach, replacing conditioners for everyday use, but beauty bloggers have shown the benefits of intensive masking repeatedly over the last couple of years as well. For best effect, add in the K18 Professional Molecular Repair Mist as a finishing product after you shower.

Hair Mask Treatments and Gray Hair

Graying hair tends to be drier than it was before changing color, due in part to the factors that change hair consistency and color with age. As a result, it can often be a challenge to condition gray hair until it has the shine, bounce, and volume you enjoy most.

Using a regular K18 hair mask treatment to provide intensive moisture and nourishment is a great way to step up your approach to caring for gray hair, and the same principle holds true if you dye your hair regularly.

Using a Hair Mask After Color Treatment

Color treatments and heat treatments are some of the most taxing on your hair. It is a well-known fact that overuse can damage hair, leaving it dry and brittle, but less well-known is the fact that hair masks can provide a toner-style effect when used in the aftermath of a color treatment.

After rinsing the color, apply K18 hair product throughout and wait for it to dry in place just like you do after a wash. That will replenish moisture and shine without rinsing out your color if you have added a formula that asks you to wait a couple days before washing it, and it provides acute support even if you plan to wash and condition it later.
