Quick answer: a rinse-out mask is a deeper treatment used after shampoo and removed with water. A leave-in mask remains on the hair to maintain softness and prepare styling. They complement each other: use the rinse-out mask first, then the leave-in.
What does a rinse-out mask do?
CurlyPlus Mask is applied to damp lengths after shampooing. It supports detangling and is rinsed after the time stated on the product.

What does a leave-in mask do?
CurlyPlus Leave-In Mask is used on damp hair after rinsing the first mask. It remains on the lengths, with the amount adjusted to thickness and density.

Can both be used on the same day?
Yes. They have different functions. Rinse CurlyPlus Mask first, then use a small dose of leave-in. If your hair is fine, reduce the amounts.
