Struggling with hair damage and don’t know how to mend the issue (not to mention, your split ends)? We get it—figuring out how to start a hair repair journey and routine for your hair can be confusing. There are so many factors to consider: How often do I wash my hair, and with what products? When and how frequently should I use deep conditioning treatments? What’s the best way to care for my hair in between wash days?
We’ve simplified the process by laying out two easy-to-follow hair repair routines featuring our award-winning Don’t Despair, Repair!™ collection—a weekly strengthening treatment routine, plus a daily maintenance repair routine—to help strengthen, repair, and deeply nourish your dry, damaged strands and bring them back to life! The best part? Both routines are ideal for all hair types and textures.
Your weekly strengthening treatment routine
Start your week off with the ultimate in damage control: a hydrating cleanse, intense protein treatment, and deep conditioning.
Step 1: Cleanse. Begin with our ultra-hydrating, sulfate-free, Super Moisture Shampoo. We’ve packed our strengthening shampoo with the natural power of coconut oil, algae extract, and panthenol to repair and nourish your strands while removing dirt, oil, and buildup.
Step 2. Protein treatment. Next, boost your hair repair routine with our super-concentrated Rice Water Protein + Moisture Strengthening Treatment, scientifically proven to strengthen your hair after just one use. We’ve made it easier than ever to harness the power of rice water with the perfect balance of protein and moisture to supercharge the effectiveness of this reparative routine.
Step 3. Deep condition. Finish off your wash day with our best-selling, 5x Allure award-winning Deep Conditioning Mask. Not only is this daily conditioner deeply reparative, but it’s also scientifically proven to decrease hair breakage after two uses and it provides long-lasting protection against future damage.
Step 4. Leave-in Treatment. Seal your split ends with our newest edition to our cult-favorite repair franchise, our Moisture + Damage Defense Leave-In Treatment. This lightweight and invisible leave-in visibly repairs 100% of split ends after just two uses!
Your daily maintenance repair routine
After your weekly treatment wash day, your regular maintenance routine gets a little simpler.
Step 1. Cleanse. For fine or thin hair, wash your hair every other day with our Super Moisture Shampoo. If you have thick or textured hair, you might be able to go two to three days between washes (the wash day routine will be the same).
Step 2. Condition. Follow up by evenly applying our Super Moisture Conditioner from mid-lengths to ends. Leave in for up to two minutes before rinsing.
Step 3. Mend split ends. While your hair is still damp post-shower, apply the Damage Defense Leave-In Treatment to your hair, and then style as normal.
Step 4. Boost shine. Finish your look with a few drops of our Strengthening Treatment Oil on your ends. For fine/thin hair, try 1-2 drops - a little goes a long way! Start with 2-3 drops for thicker hair and add more as necessary. Apply to ends first, working your way up the mid-lengths. Bonus tip: in between wash days, add a drop or two to dry ends to help replenish, hydrate, and seal in split ends.
Once you’ve completed the first seven days of your hair repair routine, continue using the complete Don’t Despair, Repair!™ lineup to keep your newly repaired strands strong and provide long-lasting protection from all types of damage.
