Do not miss how to wash it properly in only 7 steps!
# 1 Start by rinsing it
The hair must be wet before applying the shampoo. The hot water will open the cuticles, and that is good to remove any dirt or product accumulated in the hair.
In addition, if you rinse your hair with warm water before washing it, the scalp oils are loosened and the cuticle opens, allowing a better absorption of the shampoo and conditioner.
# 2 Apply the conditioner first
Just in case you have long hair below the shoulders, a good way to protect the tips of the drying is to apply conditioner and rinse before putting the shampoo.
This will not only help keep your tips healthy but also will give more moisture and shine to your hair .
# 3 Make foam on the scalp
The shampoo you only need to apply on the scalp. The hair closest to the scalp is the youngest and therefore the most oily, while the tips are usually drier and more fragile. Do not use more shampoo than you need, a small amount is enough.
If your hair is particularly long or thick you can double the amount.
# 4 Be nice
Friction can permanently damage the hair, which can cause frizz and breakage. Therefore, you should wash your hair gently.
Start at the root, massage the scalp to stimulate blood circulation in that area. Avoid circular movements that can entangle hair.
Then, go to the tips but gently, avoid rubbing or any movement that may damage them.
# 5 Do not rinse and repeat
Despite what you can say on the label of your beauty products, there is no need to rinse your hair twice. A single shampoo application is sufficient.
You can make an exception if the hair is very dirty and you have not managed to leave it clean after the first wash.
# 6 Add conditioner from the middle to the tips
After rinsing the shampoo, squeeze the water from the hair a little before applying the conditioner. Keep the hair conditioner away from the water with a cap or clip while you wash the rest of the body and let the hair absorb the conditioner. The longer the conditioner stays, the better the hair will absorb it.
Avoid applying the conditioner on the root, limit yourself to the ends. Remember that, as I told you at the beginning, if you have long hair, you can apply the conditioner before the shampoo.
# 7 Finish rinsing with cold water
Finally, rinse the hair with cold water . The cold water manages to close the cuticles and closes the outer layer, making it better reflect the light and the hair has more shine . You do not have to wash your hair entirely with cold water, but you must leave it for the final part of the wash.
Follow these steps and you can wash your hair in the right way so that it looks healthy, clean, moisturized and very bright.
