How
to Wash and Dry your Hair Correctly
Follow
the tips on wshing and drying your hair correctly below,
and you will have healthier and greater looking hair:
- Use
plain warm water (not too hot) to wet your hair.
- Put
shampoo on your hands and rub them together to create
lather before applying to the hair.
- Massage
the shampoo into the scalp with the finger tips to
get the lather up.
- For
shampoos that require the ingrediants to take effect
(like conditioner included in the shampoo), follow
the instructions that often ask to allow a couple
of minutes for the ingredients to take effect.
- Allow
your hair to hang while you rinse it thoroughly.
- If
you are applying conditioner separately, apply it
to the scalp first before working it into the hair.
Allow a couple of minutes for the conditioner to work
into the scalp.
- Do
not rub your hair hard with the towel while drying
it. Gently pat it. And don't blow dry your hair wihout
first removing the water with the towel in this way.
- Brush
or comb your hair gently. With the use of the right
conditioner, your hair should be relatively tangle
free.
- It
is best to apply gel, mousse, or setting agents when
your hair is still damp after patting dry with the
towel. These products are intended to give a glossy
appearance to the hair.
- When
blow drying your hair, it is best to use the lowest
heat. Avoid concentrating the blower in one area but
move it around the head. Do not dry your hair completely.
