Q1: Which hair mask is best for dry and damaged hair?

Repair and nourishing masks are a good starting point for dry or damaged lengths. L'Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Mask, Dove 10 In 1 Deep Repair Treatment Hair Mask and Schwarzkopf Professional SPA Essence Enriching Cream Masque are among the current options on Nykaa.

Q2: Which hair mask is best for frizzy hair?

Smoothing formulas can help make frizzy lengths feel softer and easier to manage. L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Care, Liss Unlimited, Kérastase Discipline Maskeratine and Bare Anatomy Ultra Smoothing Hair Mask are current options in the category.

Q3: How often should I use a hair mask?

It depends on your hair type and the product. Dry or damaged hair may need more frequent conditioning, while fine hair may need less. Follow the product directions and adjust according to how your hair feels.

Q4: Should I use conditioner after a hair mask?

Not always. Many hair masks are designed to provide intensive conditioning on their own. Check the product instructions before adding conditioner afterwards.

Q5: Can I use a hair mask on oily hair?

Yes. Apply it mainly to the lengths and ends rather than the scalp. A smaller amount can work better when your hair becomes oily quickly.

Q6: Can I use a hair mask on coloured hair?

Yes. A colour-care mask can be useful when your hair is coloured and the lengths feel dry or rough. L'Oréal Professionnel Vitamino Color Mask is one option currently listed in the category.
