In our lives, there are some things we do on autopilot, without giving them much thought: we snack on whatever we find in front of us for breakfast, we get stuck on social media watching silly videos and memes, We wash our hair in a hurry. You might be wondering: I’m running around all day trying to get everything done, and now you’re telling me to spend more time washing my hair? Of course you should! Because when the time comes that you see your hair isn’t in such great shape, you’ll wish you’d listened to us.
Shampooing requires a certain technique
You're in the shower, and the next few minutes are all yours to cleanse your body, unwind, and relax. Rinse thoroughly your hair for thirty seconds to remove dirt and product residue.
Wash my hair with the shampoo rich foam and massage it generously into your scalp and hair. This will stimulate blood circulation and help the scalp absorb the shampoo’s beneficial ingredients.
At this point, we’d like to take just a little more of your time to suggest a second pass with shampoo for a thorough cleanse. Of course, you don’t need to do this often, or your hair will lose its natural oils. However, if it’s been two days since you last washed your hair or you’ve used a lot of styling products, then it’s a good idea to get into this habit as well.
Use hair conditioner in moderation
Conditioner isn't shampoo—you shouldn't rub it into your scalp. It’s such a nourishing product that if you apply it to the hair roots—where sebum is naturally secreted and acts—your hair will become oily more quickly. In fact, the conditioner The ends of the hair need it and for at least two minutes each time it is used.
If you have brittle, split-ended hair, here's our tip: Add a few drops of oil to the conditioner, so you won't need to use any other nutritional product.
Find the right temperature
Hot water is relaxing. Agreed! However, as much as hot water relaxes you, it’s just as damaging to your hair, causing it to lose its natural oils and become dehydrated, which results in an itchy scalp and dandruff. And so, with a heavy heart, Set the temperature to lukewarm when we take a shower, but it's for the best. In fact, At the end, pour in cold water on the scalp (just for a moment—there’s no need to turn showering into a torture session), because this protects the hair follicle.
High-quality hair care products are an «investment»
The deals are tempting, but we don't buy just any product we come across simply because it comes with a second bottle for free. The main criterion is basically your hair type, so that you can provide them with the essential nutrients using the right shampoo and conditioner.
The indication of the hair type for which the product is intended is not arbitrary, and you don't need to figure it out as you use it.
The next criterion is the formula, which should be as natural as possible and free of alcohol, parabens, formaldehyde, sulfates, sodium chloride, synthetic dyes, and fragrances.
Drying is the secret
These are tricks used by famous hairstylists, and we were convinced to try them because they’re well-founded and they really work. When You dry your hair between shampooing and conditioning, then the second one penetrates deeper into the hair. To do this properly, don’t twist the strands—which can cause breakage—but simply squeeze the hair to remove excess water. After applying the conditioner, rinse your hair, towel-dry it, and wrap it in an old T-shirt to minimize frizz and any damage.
Avoid brushing your teeth under running water
Wet hair is fragile and prone to breakage. That’s why you shouldn’t brush your hair while you’re in the shower. You should do this before shampooing or after drying, using a brush or comb that’s suitable for your hair type, of course.
