For women who like permanent dye, there is nothing to worry about! That type of hair dye has much smaller particles and are absorbed faster after the first wash, thus making it impossible for glycerin to reach them. So, the tip is using the product only 48 hours after dying the hair, which is the time it takes for the dye to permanently set on the strands.

How to use glycerin for hair

As well as being super easy to find and being quite cheap, glycerin is also simple to use for hair. You can add the product to your favorite moisturizing mask, shampoo or conditioner, or even just mix it with water and essential oil.

For the recipe below, you’ll need:

• 2 tablespoons of your favorite moisturizing mask;
• 1 tablespoon of pure glycerin.

How to apply:

Step 1: Mix well the glycerin with the moisturizing mask in a container.

Step 2: Then, split the hair (washed with shampoo only) in locks and apply the mixture, massaging it well. Avoid the scalp, especially if you have greasy hair.

Step 3: If appropriate, after applying the mixture to all the hair, you can also spray a little water to enhance the moisturizing effects.

Step 4: After that, you can wear a plastic cap or just tie the hair up if you don’t have a cap. Leave it on for about 20 to 30 minutes for the product to act.

Step 5: Rinse well and finish by applying regular and a leave-in conditioner. It’s best to leave the hair to dry naturally, without the use of a blow dryer or iron.
