Remember to always use a small amount of product and focus on the ends of your hair to avoid weighing it down. Avoid using hot water when washing your hair, as it can strip the hair of its natural oils. Instead, use lukewarm water and finish with a cool water rinse to help seal the hair cuticles. Use a silk or satin pillowcase to help reduce friction and breakage while you sleep. And be gentle when combing or brushing your hair to avoid causing damage.
