Tip: Pick one line that matches your main concern and start with the shampoo, then add the mask or serum. Use masks once or twice a week and apply them to mid-lengths and ends. Heat tools are the biggest source of damage, so use a heat-protecting leave-in before blow-drying. For hair fall that continues, see a dermatologist.
