How to apply an extra gentle conditioner?
Conditioner is a real goldmine for your hair. Softer, silkier, nourished, less brittle, detangled… It’s up to you, but with patience and, above all, the right product, anything is possible. And to find out how to apply an extra gentle conditioner, follow the guide—we’ll tell you everything.
Prepare your hair before application
Conditioner always means shampoo first. So, the best way to prepare your hair before treatment is to wash it thoroughly, following best practices.
First of all, detangle your hair well. Grandmothers used to say that 100 brush strokes a day ensured healthy hair. If you don’t have time for that, at least take the time to remove all the knots from dry hair. Brushing wet hair makes it more prone to breakage.
Now it’s time to wet your hair generously and wash it. Ideally, for a complete treatment, use the shampoo that matches your conditioner. Here, think of Corine de Farme’s extra gentle shampoo with sweet almond oil. Enriched with softening almond oil and featuring a 100% Clean Beauty formula, it’s a treat for your fragile hair.
Be careful, to wash properly, avoid rubbing! Massage, detangle again with your fingers, and be gentle with your scalp—it will thank you.
Finally, proceed with the first rinse, long and thorough, to remove all traces of cleanser before applying your conditioner.
How to apply an extra gentle conditioner? On lengths and ends
The extra gentle almond milk conditioner by Corine de Farme has been formulated to care for delicate hair, nourish it, and repair it. It is therefore essential to apply it properly to enjoy its full potential.
Always avoid the roots, which could become sticky and greasy from the treatment. Instead, distribute it over the lengths and ends, gently massaging to ensure even distribution and better absorption on the driest or most fragile areas.
Pro tip: use a wide-tooth comb to better distribute the product through your strands.
Leave the conditioner on for the recommended time
At Corine de Farme, we recommend a leave-in time of between 2 and 5 minutes, no more. Why? Because our formulas are concentrated enough to work in just a few minutes.
Did you know? To maximize the effects of your conditioner, you can wrap your hair, without rinsing, in a warm towel or plastic wrap. You can also extend the leave-in time and keep the treatment on all night if needed. Your hair will have never been so soft and light.
This is the principle behind the heated cap at the hairdresser!
Rinse thoroughly and finish with a cold water rinse
Finally, to know how to apply an extra gentle conditioner in the best conditions, you absolutely need to pay attention to rinsing. Although the almond milk conditioner by Corine de Farme is made with 98% ingredients of plant origin, rinsing it well is the guarantee of ultimate lightness for your hair.
Indeed, whatever the product—balm, spray, oil, concentrate—its residues can leave hair sticky and heavy, which is the opposite of the desired effect.
So take the time for a pleasant rinse with clear, not too hot water, starting from the top of your head down to the ends. Don’t forget the underside of your hair and finish, if you wish, with a jet of cold water, which is beneficial for both body and mind!
