Hair tip of the day: Conditioner

For color treated/damaged hair: After shampooing, leave conditioner in your hair for at least 1 to 5 minutes. Then rinse with cool water really well. Hot or warm water swells the hair and opens the cuticle up. The cool water will take swelling back down and will seal the hair's cuticle for hair to be smoother when dry. If you have damaged hair it's best to let hair air dry as long as possible because heat from a hair dryer will open the cuticles back up. Remember: Always use a really good heat protection when using blow dryers, flat irons, and curling irons to prevent future or further damage to hair.
