DECISION DESK
Condition dry ends without weighing down oily roots
Decide where and how much conditioner or mask to apply across scalp, mid-lengths, and ends.
THE DESK'S CALL
The headline.
Our call: condition from the mid-lengths down
ON THE RECORD
What keeps the headline honest.
This is an editorial conclusion from the stated context. It is not a claimed product trial, diagnosis, or universal ranking.
Decision change
Frames conditioning as placement and dose, not a single whole-head hair type.
Evidence boundary
pH, cleansing strength, deposits, friction, breakage, color retention, and scalp measures are rarely provided with comparable methods.
What could overturn the headline.
THE COUNTER-CASE
- Applying a rich mask to roots can create weight and incomplete rinsing.
- Skipping all conditioning can increase detangling friction and breakage on lengths.
STILL UNREPORTED
- pH, cleansing strength, deposits, friction, breakage, color retention, and scalp measures are rarely provided with comparable methods.
