Hair masks are the ultra-moisturizing treatments that many women rely on to remedy their dry, brittle hair. And since our scalp's natural oil production slows with age-related hormonal changes, getting adequate moisture is never more essential than it is during and after menopause.
However, finding the right moisture balance is not as simple as conditioning when you notice dryness. Your hair and scalp have remarkably different hydration needs, and moisturizers that are beneficial for your dry ends are often too much for your scalp.
Thankfully, hair masks do not always make your scalp oily. The trick to avoiding a greasy scalp? Choose the right product for your needs and make sure you apply it correctly.
Dull, frizzy hair can be discouraging, especially if you have had shiny and healthy hair most of your life. Over time, lower estrogen levels and decreased production of natural sebum oil tend to leave your hair both drier and more damage-prone.
While your first reaction may be to slather on heaps of moisture, this won't always fix the problem. To avoid the greasiness that comes with over conditioning, make sure you accurately address your hair’s underlying issues.
Too much moisture can weigh down your fine strands, leaving them flat and lifeless. You can contribute to the problem if you are also cleansing with sulfate shampoos that strip away your scalp’s natural oils.
If you are struggling with hair breakage and split ends, an unbeaten way to restore shine to your mane is by using moisturizing hair products created to treat age-related dryness and breakage.
Try Better Not Younger’s Second Chance Repairing Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair.
When used following BNY’s improved Second Chance Repairing Shampoo, this moisture-rich conditioner can restore the strength, elasticity, and integrity of each shaft to protect your hair from damage without over-moisturizing or giving you an oily scalp.
If dryness is at the root of your hair’s dull appearance, then a hair mask’s hydrating ability is likely the smart choice for you. Better Not Younger offers two options, Hair Redemption Restorative Butter Masque and Silver Lining Purple Butter Masque.
Both mask solutions allow you to steep your strands in a rich blend of butters, including mango, cupuaçu, macadamia seed, murumuru, and avocado.
These plant-based butter masks relieve inflammation associated with dryness and itchiness without clogging your pores.
The deep-conditioning effects of a hair mask can do wonders for your dry, frizzy strands. Though if misapplied, they can saturate your scalp and roots with too much hydration.
