How to Moisturize Hair Quickly

Moisturized hair looks soft, shiny and healthy.

Just like your skin, your hair may need moisturizers to remain soft and silky. One method for moisturizing quickly is to use a leave-in conditioner. Unlike conditioners that you use in the shower and wash out, These products remain in your hair and act as a detangler, anti-frizz and moisturizer until your next shampoo. It is important to find a leave-in conditioner that works for your hair type, to avoid leaving your hair looking greasy or weighed down.

Things You'll Need

• Shampoo
• Conditioner
• Towel
• Leave-in conditioner
• Comb (optional)

Instructions

1. Purchase a leave-in conditioner tailored to your hair type. If you have thin locks, look for a lightweight formula that won't weigh your hair down. If you have thick or curly hair look for a thicker leave-in that you can apply on wet hair to fight frizz.

2. Shampoo and condition hair as usual. Squeeze out excess water and pat dry with a towel until hair is damp but not dripping.

3. Depending on the leave-in conditioner; spray the product directly onto your hair or pump some into your hands. Start mid-length and work the product into your hair with your fingers or a comb. Focus on the ends, where dryness is most prevalent. Leave in and style hair as usual.

Tips & Warnings

• Avoid applying leave-in conditioner at the roots, which can leave hair looking greasy.
