Using A Deep Treatment Masque To Achieve Beautiful Healthy Hair

By Joanna Walsh


Beautiful healthy hair improves your confidence and helps to make you more attractive to others. It takes work to ensure that your hair acquires and maintains a stunning appearance though. Many hair experts agree that hair maintenance is one of the key contributors to enviable hair. A deep treatment masque is part of any maintenance regimen that helps to create healthy, beautiful hair.

This hair maintenance mixture works by weaving its way into the inner structure of the hair strands and delivering well needed nourishment and moisture. The mixture also has a great effect on the outer layer of the hair strands as well. It coats the strands with a protective layer and this protective layer keeps the hair safe from the elements as well as heat exposure.

One of the main ingredients in this type of masque is a moisturizing agent. One of the popular moisturizers is Shea Butter which has lots of vitamin A and E, two of the most important vitamins for healthy skin and hair. It is a natural substance extracted from the nut borne by the African Shea tree. The fact that it is used in thousands of today's hair and skin products is testament to its immense value.

Aloe Vera is another great moisturizer that often forms the base for deep treatment masques. Aloe vera is a tropical plant that has a rich history of use for medicinal and beauty purposes. The plant is known for its slippery wet jelly like interior. Like Shea butter, Aloe Vera is a popular ingredient in hair care and skin products these days.

The masque can be prepared as a home created solution. Persons who choose to do this buy their raw ingredients at health food stores and mix them at home. The advantage of doing this is that you have total control over what goes into your own hair and can tailor a mixture for your own unique hair needs. Preservatives may be added to make the mixture last longer or mixtures may simply be whipped up on demand.

Others prefer to purchase commercially produced mixtures that are sold in stores. This is a convenient way to access hair care products as many deep penetrating masques, featuring moisturizing agents such as Aloe and Shea butter, are on the market these days. This is mostly due to the manufacturers and store owner's recognition of the latest trends in hair care.

Your hair type and goals should play a significant role in determining the type of masque you purchase or make.Letting the treatment stay on the hair for longer periods also allows for a deeper penetration, and, by extension, better results. Hair with greater needs may also benefit from richer mixtures, that is, mixtures that have greater portions of the nourishing ingredients.

If the hair does not require urgent restoration, but instead is simply being maintained, then less intense treatment sessions are required. This means allowing the mixture to stay on the hair for a shorter period of time or using less of the moisturizer in the mixture itself. Additionally, these types of hair may require fewer sessions or sessions that are spaced further apart.
