I've been using this mask for the past month with the pure care dry oil shampoo. I love how this mask makes my hair feel,it's softer and smoother. I would shampoo my hair as normal and then apply this makes,leave it in for about 30-40 minutes. After rinsing it off,I blow dry my hair and straighten it. I felt an immediate difference in my hair after the first wash,very impressed with this product. Definitely recommend this product and will definitely repurchase it.
