Daily shampooing, heat styling, and exposure to harsh weather conditions can take their toll on your locks. Including Briogeo’s nourishing masks in your routine can help repair damage while maintaining softness in your locks.
Hydrates
Briogeo provides an extensive range of natural haircare products for all hair types and textures. Established by Black woman Nancy Twine in NYC, this brand believes beauty shouldn’t be compromised with harsh chemicals or additives, so only natural plant and fruit extracts, oils, and antioxidants are used in their high-performing products.
Nourishes
Many hair masks contain hydrolyzed keratin to strengthen and repair strands for improved texture, shine, and hair elasticity. Too much protein may leave your tresses stiff and brittle, though; finding the appropriate balance is essential to making this happen!
If your strands tend toward dryness, try the Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask. It is packed with an array of nourishing oils, B vitamins, rosehip oil, and algae extract for deep nourishment while increasing elasticity and strength; it is free from SLS/SLES sulfates, parabens/phthalates/silicons, and silicones; science supports its effectiveness to help reduce breakage over time.
Strengthens

Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask has been clinically shown to reduce breakage twice after two uses and contains natural ingredients such as rosehip oil, B vitamins, and algae extract.
