Griffin Remedy Restorative Hair Mask is a weekly deep conditioning treatment formulated for hair damaged by heat styling, color processing, or environmental stress. The high content of fatty acids in shea butter are thought to help add moisture to your hair, while macadamia oil penetrates hair more efficiently than some other oils, delivering nutrients directly to weakened strands.
Who this is for: Fine to medium hair that's dry, brittle, or showing breakage from heat tools or chemical treatments. If your hair feels straw-like after blow-drying or has visible split ends, this mask restores elasticity and softness.
How it works: Unlike daily conditioners that work on the hair's outer cuticle, this mask penetrates the hair shaft during a 5-30 minute treatment. Leaving the product on for a longer period (20-30 minutes) can provide deeper conditioning and hydration. The formula combines organic shea butter and macadamia seed oil to rebuild the hair's moisture barrier, plus barley protein and biotin to strengthen thin, fragile follicles.
Expected results: Softer, more manageable hair after first use. With weekly application, expect reduced frizz, improved shine, and less breakage within 3-4 weeks. Most people can use a deep conditioner once per week.
Directions: After shampooing, massage into hair, ensuring the conditioner is evenly applied. Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes before rinsing. For even deeper conditioning, leave on for 20 to 30 minutes, then rinse.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I use the Restorative Hair Mask?
Use once per week for normal maintenance. For dry or damaged hair, aim for once a week to maintain hydration and strength. If your hair is severely damaged from bleaching or daily heat styling, you can use it twice weekly for the first month, then reduce to weekly as hair health improves.
What's the difference between this mask and regular conditioner?
Deep conditioners have more concentrated emollient and humectant ingredients and are left on the hair longer than daily conditioners. Regular conditioner works on the hair's surface and rinses out in 1-2 minutes. This mask penetrates the hair shaft and requires 5-30 minutes to deliver nutrients deep into damaged areas. Think of conditioner as daily hydration and this mask as intensive weekly repair.
How is the Restorative Hair Mask different from the Vitalizing Hair Mask?
The Restorative Hair Mask is lighter and formulated for fine to medium hair damaged by heat or styling. It focuses on moisture restoration and reducing frizz. The Vitalizing Hair Mask is a heavier treatment for coarse, thick, or extremely dry hair that needs maximum hydration and vitality. If your hair gets weighed down easily, choose Restorative. If your hair is very thick or coarse, choose Vitalizing.
Can I leave it on overnight?
If you're applying a hair mask to dry hair to condition it overnight, dry hair is less porous than wet hair, so there's no risk of your hair absorbing 'too much' of the product. Just make sure you wash, lightly condition and rinse your hair thoroughly in the morning. For most users, 20-30 minutes provides excellent results without the overnight commitment.
Should I apply this to wet or dry hair?
Apply to freshly shampooed, towel-dried hair. The hair should be damp but not dripping wet. This allows the mask to penetrate effectively without being diluted by excess water. Comb through the hair with a wide-tooth comb to ensure every strand is coated.
Will this work on color-treated hair?
Yes. The formula is free from sulfates and harsh chemicals that strip color. Shea butter is filled with Vitamins A and E along with essential fatty acids, which help seal the hair cuticle and lock in color. The lavender essential oil provides gentle cleansing without fading.
Is this product vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes. All Griffin Remedy products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free, made with clean ingredients and no animal testing. This mask is also free from parabens, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances.
How much should I use per application?
For shoulder-length hair, use approximately 1-2 tablespoons (about the size of a walnut). For short hair, use half that amount. For long or very thick hair, use 2-3 tablespoons. The 8oz jar provides 8-12 treatments for most hair lengths.
