Wash Your Hair The Right Way

posted in Hair on 11/30/2013

1. Start with a rinse.
hair should be thoroughly wet before you add your shampoo. Hot water will open the pores, which is good for removing any dirt or product trapped in the hair

2. If you have long hair, condition first.
Yes, really! If you have hair beneath the shoulders, protect fragile ends from drying out and further damage by running a small amount of conditioner through them and lightly rinsing, before any shampooing.

3. Lather up — but only at the scalp. You only need to shampoo the hair at the scalp The best way to lather up is from roots to ends. The hair closest to the scalp is the youngest and oiliest, while the end of the hair is dry

4.be gentle Friction can permanently damage your hair’s cuticle, leading to breakage and frizz. Think about washing your hair like you hand wash your delicates Start your lather at the roots Increase blood flow to the scalp and stimulate hair growth by using vertical strokes with mild pressure

Don’t use more shampoo than you need;a quarter-sized amount of shampoo is enough. If your hair is particularly long or thick, go ahead and double that.

5. Don’t rinse and repeat. Despite what the instructions on the back of your shampoo bottle may say, there’s no need too wash your hair twice Avoid stripping the hair by doing one Shampoo only unless hair is extremely dirty then you can do it twice

6.After you’ve rinsed out your shampoo, “squeeze some of the water out of the hair before you put in the conditioner,Then clip your hair up and finish showering, leaving the conditioner rinse out for the final step of your shower.The longer the conditioner stays on your hair, the better it absorbs.

7. Finish with a cold water rinse. Cold water will shut the cuticle tight, which will cause it to reflect the most light and give off the most shine

Use a shampoo and conditioner that’s made for your hair type. If your hair is dry, choose moisturizing products. Volumizing shampoos tend to leave hair drier, so they’re best for fine hair types that would be weighed down by more moisturizing products

How often you wash your hair depends on your hair type, too. If you have oily or fine hair, you may need to shampoo daily. Normal or dry hair can lather up closer to three times a week.
