Let’s understand the detailing tips for shampooing the hair right way.
This might be new for many, even it was new for me when I came to know about it. But believe me, this tip actually helps our hair. The pores on our hair become closed due to oil and dirt, it is necessary to open them up, so that shampoo can penetrate easily and do its job. Soak a towel in hot water and remove excess water. Wrap your hair in the towel for 20 minutes, before you think for the shower.
After 20 minutes when your hair has been well steamed, gently massage your scalp with fingers for a few minutes. Doing this will help to loosen all the dirt and buildup from the scalp and also remove weak hair strands.
Just like hot water is not good for the face skin, similarly, hot water is also not good for hair. It rips out the natural moisture from the hair making hair lifeless and dull. Always rinse or wash your hair with cold or lukewarm water, doing this the moisture also do not escape from hair and you get smoother locks.
Everything depends on which type of shampoo you use for your hair. Always make a good choice about shampoo, they help to take care of your hair health. Use shampoos that are sulfates and paraben-free, both these chemicals are bad for hair and may cause an allergic reaction.
The shampoo is meant for the scalp and conditioner is meant for hair strands. One needs to cleanse the dirt and dead skin cells from the scalp. Applying shampoo on hair strands may make them dry and lifeless. Just a quarter-size of shampoo and massage properly in your scalp, until it lathers.
Never wash your hair harshly and also do not use the nails to wash them. Always gently massage your scalp with fingertips in a circular motion to get rid of all the dirt and dust.
Summers can be tough with all the sweat and hot weather, but that doesn’t mean that we wash our hair daily. Washing hair daily can make it dry and brittle and also all the natural oil will wash away from hair. Shampoo 2-3 times a week, to maintain hair health and moisture level.
Yes, I agree that this is too much work to do. But believe me, you will see the improvement yourself. After you have shampooed, wrap a towel on your hair to get rid of excess water. Then, take a small amount of conditioner and apply it to your damp hair strands. It will work more effectively.
Yes, the max. time for the conditioner should be 3minutes. Thinking that, applying the conditioner for a long, will give you softer hair is wrong. Conditioner only works when the hair cuticle is open and swollen. So, after it has penetrated once, leaving it longer will do no good.
You must have already known this, but since we are discussing all the tips it is necessary to mention this one also. Many times when we are in hurry, we forget and apply conditioner to our scalp, and this build-up the product on our scalp and also clogs the pores. Therefore, always apply conditioner only on your hair strands.
Giving your hair a special treatment is all your hair needs. Using microfiber or cotton cloth to absorb the water from hair, helps to keep the natural oil in the hair and keeps them soft and smooth. The texture of the towel is greatly responsible for the frizz in the hair and breakage.
Since we are always tight on schedule, many times to dry our hair we rub them vigorously with a towel or coil it up in a hot towel. Both of them causes frizzy hair, leading to hair knotting, breakage and dryness. Just remove the excess water from hair and let it dry naturally.
Many of us use blow-drying to dry our hair. Well, we need to stop it. Blow drying means drying your hair with hot wind and it can rip away the natural moisture from your hair. Also blow-drying makes hair dry, brittle and causes split ends.
The best way to detangle your hair is when you apply conditioner, this reduces the weakening of hair follicles and also makes hair soft and smooth. Use a wide-toothed comb in the lower part of your hair to remove knots from the hair. Also, the conditioner provides moisture to the hair, so it is better to comb it.
When your hair has become totally dry, it is better not to comb them. Combing dry hair makes it frizzy and also results in hair breakage.
So, above are the 15 effective ways through which you can keep your hair healthy. Just try them once and you will notice a great change in the texture of your hair.
How do you Shower your hair?
Yes, you can comb your hair in the shower, it is a good thing as it prevents breakage.
If you have a problem with frizzy hair, then after you have washed your hair it is better to apply a leave-in conditioner. Leave-in conditioner keeps moisture locked in hair and avoid the frizziness.
