Pretty Good Hair Mask

I have long, thick, slightly wavy hair that can get frizzy, so I was excited to try SEEN Haircare's Frizz + Repair Treatment Mask that is supposed to help fight frizz and repair and protect against damage. I went with the fragrance free version because my scalp can occasionally be sensitive to stron...g artificial fragrances. I can handle light fragrances so the regular version might have been fine, but I really appreciated that this brand offers a fragrance free version since you don't see that often in the haircare world. And on top of being free of fragrance, the ingredients are safe for all skin types including sensitive skin and people who are acne-prone or eczema-prone. To get into the details of the hair mask, it is very lightweight - almost a surprisingly thin texture for a hair mask compared to others that I have tried. Considering how long and thick my hair is, because of how thin and not particularly rich the mask is, I use a pretty good bit of product each time I use this. Packaging-wise, I do appreciate that it comes in a bottle with a pump. One of my main gripes with other hair masks is that they are often in a jar that you have to fully open to get product out, which ends up letting shower water into the container each time your use it. As far as using the hair mask, the first time I tried it, I used it after shampooing then did not use conditioner as is the recommended method, but I ended up feeling like that wasn't enough hydration for my hair. I don't tend to think I have dry hair, so maybe my hair is just too thick and needs something extra. Without added conditioner, I thought it only did so-so on taming frizz, plus my hair did not seem as soft as normal. Since then, I use conditioner when using the mask. That has given me much better results. My hair is soft, frizz seems smoothed without using an extra styling product like I normally would when not using a mask, and my hair doesn't seem weighed down despite using conditioner too. Overall, while it took some adjusting, this is a good hair mask, though I have been a little more impressed by some others that I've tried and probably would not get this one again. But if you have sensitivities or are acne or eczema prone, I'd definitely recommend checking this mask out. I also think it could be better for people with less hair - whether shorter and/or thinner.
