Are deep conditioning treatments at the salon worth it?

Are they very helpful, or not worth the money?Are deep conditioning treatments at the salon worth it?
First off I wanna start out by saying that what is used in the salons is what is best for your hair. Oh yea, Dove is really gonna be better than Biolage??? GET REAL!!!!!!! I work in a salon, %26amp; we only use the best of the best for your hair. Conditioning treatments are the best in the salon. We put conditioner on your hair specifically for your hair type, then pop you under the dryer. When you come out, your hair should feel 100% better. (Depending on how bad of shape your hair's in)Are deep conditioning treatments at the salon worth it?
If you have like wicked dry hair its sooooo worth it.





I've never paid for my deep condition treatments(been getting my hair cut by the same person- who is also a close family friend- for over 10 years) but I sometimes see them for like 15dollars.





I dont do it often. I dont have very dry hair. The only reason i did get it a few times was because i used to straighten my hair like everyday and get highlights.


I sometimes use a home conditioner. Like one of the conditioners that comes with box hair dye. Herbal Essence sells it out of the dye package for 10 dollars and i totally reccomend it
They do work, just how much will vary on your hair type and how damaged it is. they wouldn't be allowed to market these products if they were a complete scam.


I use a deep conditioning treatment on my hair as i dye it with very harsh dye and i go swimming alot and the chlorine affects it... as well as i'm constantly bombarding it with heat and burning it into submission! And it does ravage it... you can buy good effective reasonable priced ones at any local shop, look for ones that contain coconut oils or almond oils, they are good ingrediants to include, other wise just slap loads of normal conditioner onto your hair and wrap in cling film and a small towel if you can, leave it on for as long as possible, if you can manage over night the better! cling film helps keep the heat from your head in to open up the hair folicles and really let the moisture soak in!


Before i used deep conditioning treatment my hair was awful, it snapped easily and had lost all it strength and was stretchy like rubber bands. it had lost all its shine and was frizzy and dry on the ends. i was at a loss what to do, so just left it assuming i'd just ruined it. A few weeks later i went to my hair dresser for a cut and blowdry that i had booked and at seeing how bad my hair was my hair dresser put a deep conditioner on it for free (i know all of them wont do this unfortunatley) but it DID help, it wasn't a miracle cure but it stopped it from getting worse and did make it smoother, softer, less stretchy and just in general, more managable. And from then on i have kept it up eversince once a week with ones i buy for under 拢5. and they last too, even if i do slap it on like theres no tommorrow! I personally think they do help, if anything it'll stop your hair from getting any more damaged or feeling and looking worse. After all surely adding any extra moisture to not so happy hair can only be a good thing right? :)


Hope this helps, all the best.

no they arent worth it. now a days they have shampoos that can give you a deep conditioning over time. they are much less expensive. if you want an instant result the treatment at the salon is not so bad. try using Dove hair renewal shampoo and conditioner. they can help you, and they dont cost too much.
of course they are worth it. im a hairdresser and we only use whats best for our clients. the professional stuff is the real stuff and its not going to be a scam because most salons truely do care about their clients and the health of their hair
No, it's a waste of time and money. You will have no difference in your hair. It's best to just go and buy your own deep conditioner at a drug store.
they could be. shampoos and conditioners at salons are often going to be higher quality than regular drug store shampoos and conditioners.
