Why Hair Masks Are the Recipe to Better Hair Days
Find a specific mask that works for your hair type. Using a hair mask once a week really does solve a lot of hair problems in general. – Aaron Carlo, TRESemmé UK Hair Ambassador

How to Apply Hair Masks (to the Right Places)
As you probably know, the correct application of any hair product is the key to its success. We tend to apply hair masks mostly to our roots, rather than their mid lengths and ends, which is actually where you need it the most.
So, to help you get it right, we asked Aaron Carlo how he applies them to his star clients:
- Wash your hair.
- Once your hair is nice and clean, divide your damp tresses down the centre, to create 2 equal sections.
- Apply your hair mask just below your ears. This way, you’re sure to get the product on your mid-lengths and ends, which is where it’s needed most.
- Leave it on for the allotted time, rinse and your hair mask treatment is complete!
Think of Hair Masks as Mini Spa Day for Your Strands
Whether you enjoy trying the latest hair colour trends, using heat to style your mane, or are just prone to dryness and damage, giving your hair some TLC with a hair mask will definitely benefit you.
And, if you’re still be wondering if a hair mask the recipe for better hair? We’re not saying they can turn back the clocks on damage, but they can make styling your hair a dream, as well as look and feel better – after all, isn’t that what we all want?
