Hair sheet masks are pretty much what they sound like: sheets or caps packed with ultra-rich conditioners that you wrap your hair in after shampooing and leave on for a few minutes as they penetrate your strands with major moisture.
"Hair sheet masks are something fun and new to add to your hair product arsenal," says Danai Schulte, stylist and owner of Maven Beverly Hills. "While they should not replace your conditioner, they are a great way to add more moisture during cold, dry months." With a sheet mask, your hair is being protected from water splashing around, which is one reason why this type of product is effective, says Schulte.
If you have fine hair and want to try a hair sheet mask, Schulte suggests replacing your regular conditioner with one once a week. If you have curly or thick hair, you should follow up with traditional conditioner after a sheet mask to make sure all of your hair has been saturated.
Become a sleeping beauty—literally—with this line of overnight hair sheet masks that work while you snooze.

Hit the sheets and rinse out in the morning for softer, smoother hair.
Is your hair dry and dull these days? Get your hands on this hair sheet mask, which uses your body's heat to bring nourishing ingredients like collagen, honey and jasmine straight to your hair's fibers. After shampooing, place the mask-infused cap on top of your head, making sure to cover all of your hair. Tighten the cap so that none of your hair can escape, then massage your head to adequately cover all of your hair with the mask. Rinse out after 10-15 minutes and you're good to go.
This Korean hair sheet mask is made for dry and damaged hair. The nourishing formula works to revitalize lifeless hair in 20 minutes. It's packed with good-for-hair ingredients including hydrolyzed collagen, argan oil, rolly jelly extract and olive oil. Just put on the cap containing the hair mask once you're done shampooing, secure it with the adhesive tab, massage the mask in and keep it on for 15-20 minutes before rinsing out.
Give your hair a one-two moisture punch with this mask and cap combo. The deep conditioning mask is formulated with fortifying ingredients like argan oil, algae and biotin, while the cap's inner fabric features micro-oil beads that help repair damage. The cap also locks in steam and heat, which allows the deep conditioner to absorb more easily into hair. Apply the mask to damp hair after shampooing, then place the cap over your hair. Remove the cap and rinse the mask out anywhere from 15-60 minutes later.
