If your hair is damaged from bleach, heat, or chemical treatments — a regular conditioner won't cut it. You need a deep repair mask.
Here are the best ones that actually work.
What Makes a Hair Mask "Deep Repair"?
True repair masks go beyond surface conditioning. Look for:
- Bond repair technology — rebuilds broken disulfide bonds inside the hair shaft
- Keratin — fills in gaps in the cuticle for smoother, stronger hair
- Peptides & collagen — strengthen and restore elasticity
- Biotin & natural oils — nourish and protect from further damage
