Are you begging for beautiful, long locks? Check out these affordable and easy hair washing tips to get the hair of your dreams at home.
Personally, I had no idea I was making so many mistakes when it came to washing my hair. It should be so simple! Shampoo, condition, and you’re done. Right? Wrong. There’s a lot more you can do to prevent damage before, during, and after your shower. We’re trying to spread the word, so get ready to learn 6 simple hair washing tips for gorgeous hair.
Detangling your hair before washing it is the most effective way to wash your hair without damaging your strands. Detangling your hair first will allow you to properly wash and condition your hair without knots getting in the way. It’s also important that your hair is detangled when it’s dry before entering the shower, as wet hair is more likely to break during the detangling process.
It’s so important to make sure that you’re rinsing your hair thoroughly before and after every wash! Ensuring that your hair is thoroughly rinsed before applying shampoo and conditioner will make the products more effective as your hair and scalp will be prepared for it. This also helps to disperse your hair washing products more evenly. Rinsing your hair after shampoo and conditioner are especially important to ensure that all of the product is completely out of your hair before getting out of the shower.
Did you know that water that’s too hot can actually damage and dry out your hair and scalp? Ensuring that the water temperature is lukewarm will prep your scalp and hair before washing and conditioning.
A scalp scrubber will be one of the most game-changing additions to your hair washing routine. A scalp scrubber not only helps to lather your shampoo and properly clean your scalp, but it also promotes hair growth through scalp massage. A scalp massage is one of the most effective ways to promote hair growth because it removes dead skin and buildup that often prevents hair from growing while also promoting adequate circulation and blood flow to your scalp to stimulate hair growth!
Rinsing your hair and scalp with cold water after your hair washing routine will improve your hair health and will also eliminate frizz and increase shine right away! Rinsing your hair with cold water closes the hair cuticle and seals the hair shaft, making the hair smoother and shinier instantly!
After you’ve incorporated all of those hair washing techniques into your routine, don’t neglect the drying portion! Using a microfiber towel to dry your hair instead of your regular bath towels will further help reduce frizz, increase shine, and improve your hair's overall health.
