Is the regular use of a leave in protectant part of your personal haircare regime? Many women believe using a conditioner after they shampoo is enough for beautiful hair but they are missing a chance to really get the great looking hair they want.
What is Leave in Protectant?
A leave in protectant is not just another kind of conditioner. A leave in protectant is designed to do exactly what it’s name suggests, protect your hair from the ravages of the elements which can damage every hair type while also sealing in moisture and for those who color treat their hair help that color remain brighter and truer for a longer period of time.
A leave in protectant used right after hair has been washed acts an excellent detangler as well. Women tend to do an awful lot of unintentional damage to their hair by yanking their combs or brushes through it to get out knots while it is still wet. A good leave in protectant helps your comb or brush glide through the hair far more easily, avoiding the snagging that leads to split ends and the dreaded frizzies.
The best leave in protectants such as Sheilo’s Antioxidant Leave in Prtotectant are also formulated with vitamins, anti oxidants and amino acids to better nourish hair. Your hair benefits from a good dose of vitamins every bit as much as the rest of your body does and truly healthy hair has a shine to it that no styling product can produce alone.You may have heard plenty about antioxidants being great for fighting wrinkles and possibly even helping ward off serious diseases like cancer but antioxidants for the hair may be a new concept to you. However antioxidants are proving they can work wonders to protect hair from damage, especially from the UV rays of the sun and the drying effects of the wind.
When to use Leave in Hair Protectants
Hair protectants should not just be applied after you shampoo and condition your hair. If you are a straight or curling iron fan all that intense heat can frazzle hair in an instant (especially if you leave the plates in place a little bit too long) and a hair protectant applied to the hair before hand can help reduce the danger that you will fry your hair (never a good look!)
If you color your hair on a regular basis whether you shampoo and condition on an everyday basis or not, daily use of a good leave in protectant is a great way to ensure that your color does not fade too quickly or turn a rather strange hue after sunbathing or swimming, a problem that many blondes encounter.
Great stuff, Just forwarded this on to a friend who read up on this and she took me to eat after I showed her this blog. So, appreciate it!!
Sounds wild, but I’ll try it the next time I run out of conditioner. Thanks
Can I use this after I use conditioner?
This is actually the first time I hear about this but it sounds very interesting. If its possible that this will help the condition of my hair I am very interested. Personally, my hair gets affected a lot by the weather so in the worst weather I struggle to manage my hair the way I want to. i imagine something like this will put me at an advantage. Great article!
This is a great additive when conditioning your hair, great results.
I think this product is meant to be used to with conditioner and shampoo. The results are a lot better. This product is amazing and the first time I saw it was on this website.
its a lovely product for conditioning your hair after shampoo the result is very good.
I have a bad habit of combing my hair when it’s still wet. My Leave in Protectant does help lessen the yanking and pulling that’s been happening before. The best thing about this is not the glide, it’s the protection my hair get from damage and harmful effects of the sun.
Informative post about leave, and haven’t heard much about it. Just shared this unknown information to my friends.
I was looking hair protectants for daily use, thanks for sharing this great piece of information. My hair color fades and changes, likes to try this product.
I’ve used other leave in protectant before but I apply it after I used the hair iron to straighten my hair. I didn’t know it was all wrong.
my friend recommended me this leave in protectant and i assure you that its very useful to avoid damaged hair by straightening or curling plus it gives my hair extra shine and smoothness.thanks for this information.
