Tips for washing hair properly at home!

 

For many people, washing their hair is a matter of course and for others it's a ritual! But did you know that the way in which you wash your hair can have an impact on the final result and also on your hair's health?

In this basic guide, we'll take a step-by-step look at how to have healthy hair after washing!

Water temperature:

Washing should ideally be done in lukewarm or cold water! Never hot water! Hot water has the power to open the hair cuticles, stripping the hair of its natural moisture and nutrients.

Amount of shampoo: 

It's important not to overdo it with the amount of product so as not to make your hair look greasy. A suitable amount is the size of a quarter or ¼ of the palm of your hand.

Comb through damp hair:

Detangling your hair before washing helps prevent breakage! Wet your hair and use a comb or brush. 

and always start detangling from the tips to the roots!

This makes the process easier, reduces the chances of breakage and hurts the scalp less. 

Rinse your hair thoroughly:

It's important not to leave product residue in your hair to avoid dandruff, hair loss and that dirty hair look! Rinse your hair thoroughly until the water runs clear.

Massage the scalp well:

When spreading the shampoo over your scalp, use your fingertips (never your nails!) and make circular movements, massaging gently. This massage helps to remove residue from the scalp and also activates blood circulation (which aids hair growth).

Dry your hair thoroughly:

When drying your hair, it's best not to rub it with a towel, as this can cause frizz and breakage.

opt for a microfiber towel or some very soft fabric and leave your hair wrapped up for a few minutes so that the water is absorbed.
