You Won’t Think About Skipping Conditioner After Reading This

“Don’t forget to condition your hair post shampooing.” An instruction that is served hand-in-hand with every hair care routine. To be honest, many people still get out of the shower a few minutes early and skip that step and why not?

You’ve been guided well against taking stress, unhealthy diet and genes being vital factors that contribute to poor hair health. What good can adding an extra step do to that?

It’s true that what you consume affects the health of every cell in your body including your hair. Yet, along with your diet, doctors and hairstylists choose to put a lot of emphasis on using the conditioner regularly.

Well, because as lazy as you might feel, conditioning the hair is important for the optimal hair health.

What Is A Conditioner?

Majorly, hair conditioner benefits hair by moisturising it. It is a moisturising agent consisting of oils, emollients and many other ingredients which restore the moisture in hair after it is stripped from shampooing.

What Is A Conditioner

There are different types of conditioner - post-shampoo hydrator, deep conditioner, cleansing conditioner, leave-in conditioner and dry conditioner. While mass produced conditioners often contain chemicals like silicones, you can always choose a chemical-free option. .

Why Is Conditioner Necessary For Hair?

The cells in the outermost layer of the hair shaft are arranged in the form of fish scales. When you shampoo your hair, it takes away the moisture which makes the outermost layer of cells stand out like spikes. This makes hair look rough and frizzy.

Regular conditioning maintains the elasticity and shine of hair. Overusing hot styling tools and hair treatments make your hair dry. However, if you condition your hair regularly, your locks are protected from the damage caused by harmful UV rays, blow dryers, flat irons, curling irons and other styling tools.

Ensure you squeeze some of the water out of your hair after you’re done shampooing. Otherwise, it’ll diminish the effects of the conditioner. Too much water can dilute the conditioner and prevent hair from absorbing the ingredients that provide moisture.

You can leave your conditioner in the hair for two minutes, that’s enough. However, if you’re using a deep conditioner, leave it up to three to five minutes.

FAQs On Why Conditioner is Important

Is conditioner good for thin hair?

Yes, definitely. Your hair needs conditioning. Fine hair can easily house knots and get tangled which is why it needs conditioner more than thick hair do. The best strategy would be to condition only the bottom half of your hair, from mid-lengths to tips. Avoid the roots. 

What happens to your hair if you don't use a conditioner?

When you don’t use a conditioner, bad things happen to your hair. Your hair becomes more prone to tangle, brittle and breakage. It’s easier for your hair to stay moisturised and entangled when you are conditioning it

Should I use a conditioner on my scalp?

No, it’s not a good idea to put conditioner at the roots of your hair. The natural oil from your scalp is more concentrated there. Instead, apply it from the mid-lengths to tips.

So, no skipping conditioner from now on!
