What is the best way to use this conditioner in a routine with other products? — Balm macadamia lightly moisturizing 400ml rubella

This conditioner is designed as the regular conditioning step after shampooing. The most effective routine: shampoo first (focus on scalp), rinse thoroughly, squeeze excess water from the hair, then apply a walnut-to-golf-ball-sized amount of conditioner depending on length and density. Distribute it from mid-lengths to ends — avoid the roots unless your scalp is very dry — and use a wide-tooth comb or fingers to detangle while the product is in. Leave it on for 1–3 minutes; the hydrolysed proteins and quinoa protein need a brief contact time to adsorb onto the hair surface. Rinse with cool or lukewarm water to help close the cuticle.

If you use a deeper mask once a week, replace the conditioner with the mask on that day rather than using both. Layering a heavy mask over a light conditioner can overload fine hair. On non-mask days, this conditioner provides enough lubrication for most hair types. After rinsing, you can follow with a leave-in cream, oil, or heat protectant while the hair is still damp — the conditioner's light film (jojoba oil mimics sebum, macadamia oil provides omega-7) creates a good base for those products to spread evenly.

For very long or heavily bleached hair, some people apply a tiny drop of pure argan or jojoba oil to the very ends after towel-drying, but test first: the conditioner already contains both oils, so extra may not be necessary. Store the bottle upright, cap closed, away from direct sunlight; the vitamins A, C, and E in the formula are antioxidants that protect the product itself but degrade faster with heat and light exposure.
