What the maker doesn’t say
PATTERN's own pages disagree on the mask use. The product page's tip says to leave it on for ten minutes as a mask, which is what we show; its FAQ says 3 to 5 minutes (plus 5 under a processing cap if you like) and calls it a rinse-out conditioner, not a deep-conditioning treatment. Go by the directions on your bottle.
PATTERN doesn’t say how much to use, as a conditioner or as a mask. Measure your usual amount once, and the cost calculator does the rest.
