Deep Conditioning Hair Treatments
How often do we talk about the condition of our hair or scalp and wonder what can be done to have healthier hair?
Deep conditioning your hair will re-vitalise your hair strands and give back the necessary nutrients to feel and visibly see noticeable improvements in your hair. Afro hair is uniquely delicate and requires special attention to strengthen the strands and maintain definition to the curl pattern. By conditioning your hair correctly in a salon you will receive the necessary components in the treatment to give your hair an all round deep condition alongside the massaging techniques when applying the treatment to stimulate your scalp which will promote healthy growth.
Deep Conditioning Treatments repair the hair shaft, strengthening the hair and repairs it from heat damage and breakage from various hair tools. Afro hair and curly textures should be well moisturised which will help prevent breakage throughout the hair strands as well as the ends.
You may ask, how and when will I notice the benefits of treating my hair?
Building a regular hair routine every 6-8 weeks with deep conditioning treatments is required if you want to see and feel the benefits of your investment. Whilst you may have protective styles such as braids or weaves, it is important to ensure you have a deep conditioning treatment as soon as you remove your protective style. Protective styles will protect the hair but not for too long and your natural hair will become dry and tangled after some time which means feeding your hair with a treatment is vital to ensure the protective styling hasn’t become counter productive on the state of health on your hair.
It is important that you chose a reputable hair salon that understands the science of your precious God-given natural afro hair. The process of before, during and after is vital to get right in order for your hair to reap the benefits of the treatment. A consultation should be had prior to applying the treatment to ensure the right components are being added to your treatment. Whilst the base ingredients of a treatment will be the same there are additional elements such as oils and quantities of ingredients that will and should be applied based on the individual needs of your scalp and hair condition. A treatment should not be done with a view of ‘one size fits all’. Be sure to have specialised, experienced hair stylists working on your treatment and this will show over time as your hair begins to respond to the treatments it’s getting.

Whilst many clients like the idea of leaving the salon with silky straight hair on the back of a treatment, LET ME STOP YOU! Do not apply such heat on your hair after getting a deep conditioning treatment. It makes no sense! It’s contradictive to the treatment! You may as well have not had your treatment done. Do not trust a stylist that says ‘hey let’s straighten your hair to give it the perfect finish’. One of the main benefits of a deep conditioning treatment is to restore the hair from heat damage, so why finish the appointment with a straighten? – Don’t!
Need a straighten for an event? Delay the treatment for after the event so your hair can truly soak in the treatment and begin to work its magic. Avoid adding heat of any kind for a few days after your treatment.
In time, you will notice your curls holding their definition and your scalp will begin to grow healthier, stronger hair due to the fact the scalp is able to breathe and open up the follicles easily.
You may say, ‘every 6-8 weeks of treatments is an investment’ – correct! It is! But it is one you will benefit from, and your hair will thank you for it! Hair care is just as important as any other area of health. The right blended treatment for your hair will help prevent unhealthy hair conditions as well as restore areas of hair loss and damage.
