Use Deep Conditioner To Get the Most Out of Your Hair
Conditioning your hair is an essential step for any hair care routine. But what are conditioners and what are their benefits? What is the difference between shampoo and conditioner? When should deep conditioner be used? Often, shampoo and conditioner alone cannot provide all the care your hair needs and hair treatments like leave-in and deep conditioners and masks should be added to complete your hair care routine.

Lightweight conditioning treatments are perfect for fine hair
The light-weight conditioner for hair
If you tend to have greasy hair, and you find even the lightest conditioner is too rich, a deep treatment may be a good lightweight solution. After shampooing, a moisturizing conditioner can be applied directly to your hair, especially to the ends. Deep conditioners work especially well when it’s necessary to find a product that suits hairstyles for fine hair. Collagen-containing conditioner options give flat, fine hair more bounce. These deep treatments may also be applied to the roots of the hair where more volume and bounce is needed.
Deep treatments: Sometimes more is better
Deep treatments can often be the best conditioners for hair that is quite dry. If your hair is over-processed or dry, a deep conditioner with shea butter, coconut extract, or argan oil is a good choice. Some deep hair treatments contain ingredients like the hair building block keratin, structure-improving proteins and moisturizing glycerol. These treatments are suitable for over-processed and damaged hair. You may decide to use deep options regularly in addition to conditioning shampoos and hair rinses to provide sufficient care. Don't forget to add a weekly hair mask to your care regimen. Some advantages for deep conditioner over normal conditioners include moisturizing dry hair, detangling and softening hair, promoting hair growth and helping to strengthen and revitalize lackluster hair.
Using special color conditioners when hair has been color-treated
Color-treated hair tends to look more vibrant after applying deep conditioners containing enzyme-rich apricot kernel oil, panthenol for protection, and hair-regenerating keratin. These special ingredients add glow to any hair color. Special pigments in deep treatments for blonde hair provide a golden glow. It’s worth noting that Schwarzkopf hair dyes, like Keratin Color honey blonde 9.0, come with a pre-color serum that helps hair stay conditioned before coloring. Very damaged color-treated hair may need both a conditioning rinse and a deep conditioner after shampooing. This applies in particular to hair that has been frequently bleached. However, your color-treated hair may be quite healthy, in which case no more than typical hair conditioner or a deep treatment is needed after shampooing.
