Time is on our side

Hair masks and conditioners are fabulous. They nourish, moisturize, soften and make hair healthier if a beautiful mane is what you are looking for. Until recently I was under the impression that all women share my passion for these products and use them daily. I was wrong. After conducting a small research among friends, women I know and just women on the street I found out that a great number of women simply shampoo their hair in order to save time. “Will the 5 minutes it takes to put on the mask save you” I wondered and I immediately set my childless, privileged timewise self straight. Indeed, many women do not have time to take care of themselves and for them every minute counts. Hoever time can be on our side and if you have one brow raised and asking “how” the answer is : while you sleep.

While we are sleeping our body renews itself. No wonder an entire section of the market is dedicated to night care. Therefore, whatever applies to our skin applies to our hair as well. Night treatments for hair are super nourishing and light even if you have greasy hair. Just apply them before you go to bed and wake up as if you’ve had a luxurious mask. Of course, night repair products for hair are not designed only for women that have limited time. They are perfect if you have dry, sensitized hair that need all the love they can get.

Tip: If you have greasy hair you CAN use products that are designed for dry hair. Just use half the portion and stay away from the roots.
