Detox conditioner is designed to rebalance your hair and scalp, and it's primarily applied to your hair after using a detox shampoo. Here's how to use it:
- Wash Your Hair: For optimal results, start by using a detox shampoo on your scalp and hair. This prepares your hair by removing impurities and buildup.
- Apply to Wet Hair: After rinsing out the shampoo, apply a generous amount of the detox conditioner to your wet hair. The reference doesn't specifically mention applying it to the scalp, but many conditioners are formulated to be safe for scalp application, especially those marketed as "detox" or "scalp-friendly". Check the product's instructions for clarity. If it states "apply to hair", avoid direct scalp application. If it doesn't specify, a gentle application to the scalp is generally fine.
- Massage Gently (Optional): If the conditioner is intended for scalp use (check the product label), gently massage it into your scalp using your fingertips. This can help to stimulate blood flow and further cleanse the scalp.
- Leave In: Allow the conditioner to sit on your hair for the time specified on the product label. This allows the ingredients to penetrate the hair shaft and scalp, providing hydration and detoxification.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the conditioner completely from your hair and scalp with water. Ensure no residue remains, as this can weigh down your hair.
In summary, the general method involves applying the detox conditioner to wet hair after shampooing (ideally with a detox shampoo), potentially massaging it into the scalp (if indicated on the product instructions), leaving it in for a specified time, and then rinsing it out thoroughly. Always refer to the specific instructions on your chosen product.
