Question

How can one treat hair that has dandruff?

Community Answer

Hot oil treatments. Wash your hair 2-3 times with shampoo. Condition the hair, and let the conditioner sit for 2-5 minutes. Rinse, then squeeze excess water. Oil your hair until hair feels moist enough for you, put on a shower cap, sit under the heat for 15-30 minutes, then rinse your hair with cool water to lock in the moisture.

Question

Is there a way to grow my hair five inches in three weeks?

Community Answer

No, it is impossible. If you would like length in a short amount of time, consider extensions.

Question

Can I leave conditioner in my hair to make it feel softer?

Community Answer

Yes, but make sure to use a leave-in conditioner; the ones that are meant to be washed out can cause irritation.

Question

What is leave-in conditioner?

Anaé Thomas

Community Answer

Leave-in conditioner or leave-in hair treatment is a conditioning product that is applied to freshly cleansed hair and left in until the next washing. The lightweight formulas can also be used on dry hair between washes to restore lost moisture and give manageability to hair.

Question

Can I leave conditioner in my hair overnight?

Anaé Thomas

Community Answer

It's not good to leave common conditioner on your hair overnight. You should use a moisturizing deep conditioner once a week and a deep conditioner with proteins every two months. You should use an overnight mask with coconut oil once a week, maybe even two, without any type of risk for your hair

Yes. Condition first. If you color afterwards, there should be no effects.
