Phyto maske i balzami za kosu
Phyto hair masks and conditioners are intended for additional care after washing, when the hair needs softness, easier detangling, shine, a better look of lengths and ends or specific care according to hair type. Within the PHYTO hair care line, masks and conditioners are used as an important step after shampoo, especially for colored, dry, fine, damaged or easily tangled hair.
Conditioner is most often used after every or almost every wash, when softening and easier detangling are needed. A hair mask usually provides more intensive care and is used occasionally, according to hair needs and the manufacturer’s instructions.
A properly chosen mask or conditioner may help the hair look neater, shinier and better cared for, but they should be used correctly: most often on the lengths and ends, not directly on the scalp, unless the manufacturer states otherwise.

How to choose a hair mask or conditioner?
If the hair is colored and you want it to look shinier, softer and better cared for, Phyto Color mask for colored hair can be a good choice. This type of mask fits into a post-coloring care routine and should be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
For blonde, lightened or grey hair that needs neutralizing unwanted yellow tones, choose Phyto Purple hair mask. With purple masks, it is important to respect the recommended processing time to avoid an overly intense tone.
If you have fine hair that needs volume but you do not want to overload it, view Phyto Volume conditioner. Conditioner is a good choice when you want easier detangling, softness and care without a heavy finish.
How to use hair masks and conditioners properly?
Conditioner is usually applied after shampooing, to the lengths and ends of the hair, left on briefly and rinsed thoroughly. A mask is used when the hair needs more intensive care, most often once to several times weekly, depending on hair condition and the manufacturer’s instructions.
Too much product should not be applied, especially on fine hair, because the hair may look flat or weighed down. With products for colored, blonde or lightened hair, it is especially important to follow the recommended processing time.
Masks, conditioners and scalp care
Masks and conditioners are primarily intended for the lengths and ends of the hair, while scalp concerns such as dandruff, itching, redness or oily scalp are managed with a suitable shampoo and targeted treatments. If dandruff often returns or is accompanied by itching and irritation, shampoo choice should be considered carefully.

Pharmacist’s advice
Choose a mask or conditioner according to hair condition: colored hair needs color care, blonde and grey hair may need yellow-tone neutralization, while fine hair usually benefits more from lighter volume formulas. Apply the product mainly to lengths and ends, unless the manufacturer states otherwise. If itching, redness, stinging, rash or scalp irritation occurs after use, stop using the product and seek advice from a dermatologist, doctor or pharmacist.
