Flaxseed Heat Caps
All You Need To Know
Developed by founders Hinshara and Yuba (devout followers of Lorraine Massey’s Curly Girl Method) to provide high-quality CG-friendly products and accessories in India, our Flaxseed Heat Cap is a transformative ally in your hair care routine. Functioning as an enabler, it elevates the effectiveness of any applied product by opening up the hair cuticles. This allows the product to permeate deep into the hair shaft, maximising its impact and leaving your hair nourished and revitalised.
What makes the Flaxseed Heat Cap truly versatile is that it also offers a comforting solution for aches and pains when used for hot or cold fomentation. In many ways, our Flaxseed Heat Cap is a holistic accessory that caters to both your beauty and well-being needs.
To Heat:
Heat the cap in a microwave for up to 3 minutes. Flip/turn over the Heat Cap every 30 to 45 seconds. If you don’t have a microwave, you can also heat the cap using the double boiler method. Stack two pots over the stovetop. Place water in the lower pot. Make sure the bottom of the top pot is not touching the water in the lower pot. Place the Heat Cap in the top pot and heat indirectly by using steam from the simmering water in the lower pot. Make sure to continuously move the Heat Cap to avoid burns.
*Always do a touch test before using.
To Use:
Apply your product on wet/dry hair. Cover your hair with a plastic shower cap. Wear the heated Heat Cap over your head. Sit back, relax, and let the Heat Cap work its magic.
Caution:
Never heat your cap for more than a total of 3 minutes to avoid overheating and risk of fire. Do not heat your cap in a conventional oven.
How often can I use the Heat Cap?
If you have damaged hair, we recommend weekly deep conditioning treatments with our Heat Caps. For everyone else, monthly or fortnightly deep conditioning with our Heat Caps is enough.
How long can I wear the Heat Cap?
When heated using the methods described above, the Heat Cap can retain heat for up to 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the room temperature.
Is the Heat Cap washable?
No. Always wear a plastic shower cap under the Heat Cap. Use a lint roller to remove excess lint. Use mild, soapy water to spot clean when necessary. DO NOT immerse it in water or wet the cap.
How to store the Heat Cap?
Always make sure your Heat Cap is absolutely dry. Store it in a cool and dry place, avoiding exposure to moisture and humidity.
