How often must you deep-condition your hair?
“The frequency of deep conditioning is dependent upon the health of the hair,” Armand says. But those with damaged hair need to extend their deep conditioning sessions to greater than once a month. “Healthy hair requires monthly maintenance versus damaged hair which requires, at minimum, two deep conditions a month. When hair is broken, dry, brittle, and lacks elasticity (curls don’t pop or snap back), it requires more attention and multiple cycles of conditioning to create moisture retention, elasticity, and restore vital proteins and nutrients,” he adds.
