A curl mask provides more intensive care for your curls than a conditioner and supplies them with extra moisture or strengthening ingredients. Curls that are particularly dry or damaged benefit from a mask, as it can help make the curl structure appear smoother and reduce frizz. Your curls often feel softer and more nourished afterward.

Curling masks are ideal for wavy, curly, and frizzy hair, especially when your curls look dry, dull, or damaged. Depending on the formula, masks can be richer or lighter, ensuring that both fine and thick curls receive the care they need.

Co-Wash a curl mask after washing your hair with shampoo or Co-Wash . Work the mask through the lengths of your curls and let it sit for a few minutes so the nourishing ingredients can be absorbed. Then rinse thoroughly and finish with conditioner.

How often you use a mask depends on the needs of your curls. Many people with curly hair use a curl mask about once a week or when their curls feel particularly dry. More intensive care may also be beneficial after your hair has been through a lot.

Moisturizing masks help keep dry curls soft and reduce frizz. Protein masks can strengthen the curl structure and help make curls appear more resilient. The choice depends on whether your curls need more moisture or strengthening care.

Apply the curl mask after shampooing and let it sit for a sufficient amount of time. Then use a conditioner to seal in the active ingredients.
