Nykaa Naturals Fermented rice water and bamboo hair mask Review
Putting on a bathrobe is something I had to teach myself to properly use hair masks, and the Nykaa Naturals Fermented rice water and bamboo hair mask is what I learnt this with. Now a little back story on why this had to be learnt. Here goes!
When do you use hair masks? Before or after shampooing your hair? Before? Wrong!!! It has to be done after you are done with shampoo and are looking to deep condition your hair. I used to make this mistake earlier, dampening my hair to put the mask on only to wash it away later. Because I do not have the patience to wait 15 - 25 minutes with hair masks on after I have been in the shower once. This hair mask is the instance where I tried to put on a bathrobe and do hair masks properly. See how dedicated I am to a genuine review!!
This, and the fact that my hair was dry as dry can be and I desperately needed to deep condition my hair. Without any further ado let's dive into the review.
Nykaa Naturals Fermented rice water and bamboo hair mask Review
Price: 200 ML of hair mask for 399 INR available on Nykaa website or application
Packaging:
Not a fan of the packaging. I understand the thick mask here cannot really be dispensed from a squeezy tube, like the hair conditioner from this range, but a tub isn't ideal to be used when you are in the shower with wet hands. Since this is an after-shampoo hair mask, a different kind of packaging would have been better
Product:
A thick creamy hair mask needs to be emulsified in small quantities before being spread on wet hair. The hair mask has a similar, but slightly stronger fragrance to the shampoo and conditioner but surprisingly It doesn't stay on for a long time after washing off.
My experience:
The dry and damaged hair I have usually feels amazing afterwards, but this hair mask needs to be left on for at least 20 minutes for the results, which is something that I can only do once a week at most. The hair conditioner from this range makes frizzy hair manageable, but this hair mask actually helps tame dry and frizzy hair.
The Nykaa Naturals Fermented rice water and bamboo hair mask can be applied on hair and scalp both, but I try to avoid specifically using it on the scalp as anyway, the scalp gets the product on it when the hair is wrapped up with the product in it.
I would absolutely recommend this hair mask for dry and frizzy hair, provided you have the time to use this.
