For color-treated hair, avoid applying conditioner. Dyed hair is more prone to becoming dry and brittle, therefore use color-treated hair conditioners on a regular basis. It contributes to the formation of a protective barrier, which can keep your colour from washing out too rapidly. For natural hair, avoid applying conditioner. Natural hair tends to be much drier than chemically treated hair, so it's important to apply moisturizing products that will help prevent hair from being dry. Conditioners are not recommended for natural hair because they contain ingredients like silicones and parabens that may cause damage to sensitive scalp skin. If you have dyed hair, condition it after shampooing but before drying it. This will help protect your hair against the effects of heat styling. If you have natural hair, condition it regularly after washing. This will help maintain the integrity of your hair cuticle layer, preventing hair loss and breakage.
