Reading the Product Instructions
Always read the product label. Some hair masks are designed for daily use, while others are weekly treatments. Lusstaly Vitamin E & Collagen Nourishing Hair Mask is a daily-use mask for normal hair. Lusstaly Collagen + Keratin Intensive Hair Mask is a weekly deep treatment. Misuse can lead to buildup or lack of results.
Signs You Are Overusing Hair Masks
Overuse signs: (1) Hair feels heavy or limp. (2) Scalp feels greasy faster. (3) Hair looks dull despite masking. (4) Product buildup on scalp. (5) Hair feels coated. If you notice these, reduce frequency to once per week and use a clarifying shampoo.
Signs You Are Underusing Hair Masks
Underuse signs: (1) Hair remains dry or damaged. (2) Split ends persist. (3) Hair breaks easily. (4) No improvement after 4-6 weeks. (5) Hair feels rough even after conditioning. If you notice these, increase frequency to 2-3 times per week.
Best Practices for Hair Mask Use
Tips: (1) Shampoo first, then apply mask to damp hair. (2) Focus on mid-lengths to ends, not scalp. (3) Leave on for 5-20 minutes (longer for deep treatment). (4) Use a wide-tooth comb to distribute. (5) Rinse with cool water to seal cuticle. (6) Style as usual.

Hair Mask Use with Other Treatments
Layering: hair mask can be used after shampoo and before conditioner, OR after both shampoo and conditioner as a final treatment.
