FAQ
Ôtentik products can certainly help. It's important to note that the length of treatment depends on the type of dandruff. Ôtentik's nourishing mask contains natural products to help treat dandruff. Generally, after four to six weeks of use, you'll notice a considerable reduction or even disappearance of these.
When it comes to restoring the vigor and health of damaged hair, Co-Wash cleanser is ideal, as it contains far fewer aggressive agents than a normal shampoo. As a result, Ôtentik Co-Wash can be applied without fear along the length of your hair to naturally define your curls without drying them out, while keeping them soft and moisturized.
Implementing the 4-step hair routine and using our range of products will help you achieve healthy, moisturized hair. However, as the causes of dryness and breakage vary from one person to another, it's important to diagnose them in order to adapt the routine effectively. Don't hesitate to contact one of our consultants for a personalized follow-up specific to your hair (insert link to contact form).
The speed with which results are observed depends above all on the condition of the hair at the start of treatment and the discipline of the hair routine. Reviews received from our users mention noticeable changes after the first month of use.
Yes, of course, our REVIVAL serum has been designed to help treat alopecia in black and mixed-race women. However, depending on the severity of the damage caused by alopecia, Ôtentik recommends a natural health diagnosis before using the Serum. Ôtentik can refer you to a diagnostic clinic that can help you with this. If the diagnosis shows other health or hormonal problems causing alopecia, Ôtentik recommends treating these diagnosed problems before starting REVIVAL Serum. Contact a consultant to guide you through the process.
Our hair is an integral part of our hygiene and beauty. So, like a plant, it needs regular attention to restore its beauty. On average, Ôtentik's 4-step process takes 1.5 to 2 hours. Fortunately, as hair regains its health and vigor, the hair routine becomes less time-consuming.
Our Ôtentik products are suitable for dread locks. Nevertheless, their routine requires fewer steps and Ôtentik products adapted to dreads locks. For further details, please contact one of our consultants.
Considering as we do a weekly routine, we recommend spraying with water after about 3 days and applying our moisturizer and strength oil. Always protect your hair with a satin cap at bedtime and when wearing hats, tuques or scarves.
The length of time needed to obtain the benefits of masks on our hair depends on the condition of the hair. When the mask is applied without the warmth of a helmet, it takes longer (around 1h30 to 2h30) to penetrate deep into the hair fibre.
We recommend our 4-step hair routine for optimum results, and in particular the use of the nourishing mask, as it has been designed to help cleanse the scalp.
Yes, our products are natural and suitable for people under 18. However, they don't have to use all the products in the 4-step hair routine; it all depends on the condition of the hair. You can contact one of our consultants for a personalized follow-up.
The hair of black and mixed-race people grows by about 0.8 cm per month. When you follow the 4-step routine meticulously and weekly with Ôtentik products, hair breakage is reduced and natural hair growth is preserved. However, for adults, maintaining breakage is as much a matter of external care as it is of nutritional supplements that fortify the hair from within.
Our current products are designed for all hair types and textures.
On average, the basic range for the 4-step routine can last between 6 and 8 weeks, depending on the characteristics (density, length, state of health, etc.) of each hair type. As part of our process, we also explain how to make the best use of our products.

Although Ôtentik products have been specially designed for curly hair, you can also use them on color-treated and/or straightened hair during your transition to natural hair.
If you don't have specific alopecia or growth problems that require the use of REVIVAL serum, you can simply use products from Ôtentik's basic range to help keep your hair healthy and beautiful. However, if you want to stimulate faster growth, REVIVAL Serum has specific properties to help achieve this.
We recommend limiting the use of wigs and extensions to very specific, occasional circumstances. Your hair is like a plant: if it's constantly suffocated by artifice, it's attacked, loses its vigor and suffers breakage. We have observed more notable results in people who have limited the use of wigs and extensions on their hair.
