Wash hair 2-3 times per week, not daily. Over-washing strips natural oils.
How to Wash:
- Wet hair thoroughly with lukewarm water
- Apply shampoo to scalp, not ends
- Massage gently for 1-2 minutes
- Rinse completely
- Apply conditioner to mid-lengths and ends only

2. 💧 Deep Conditioning Weekly
Use a deep conditioning mask or treatment once a week for intense hydration.
Best for:
- Dry Hair: Moisturizing masks with oils
- Damaged Hair: Protein treatments
- Color-Treated: Color-safe deep conditioners
- Fine Hair: Lightweight masks

3. 🌡️ Temperature Control
