Important nuances, which not everyone knows about, I recently learned from a trichologist. How often do you wash your hair? I wash it once every 2 days, and it happens that on the second day I am no longer 100% satisfied with the cleanliness of my hair. In my life, there was once a story of "weaning from frequent washing", which ended sadly. Not only did my hair not retrain, but also problems with the scalp and hair loss began.
I have already told you once in an article that the idea of weaning your hair from frequent washing using the “no wash” method is very controversial. It is not suitable for everyone! Tell us about your experience, it will be very interesting to read.
I recently spoke with a trichologist about oily scalp. And he told and even showed me how important it is to wash your hair correctly. A common problem is poor-quality cleaning, which ultimately leads to many problems. And what kind of cleansing can be called qualitative? Let's figure it out.
How to properly wash your oily scalp
How many times do you lather your hair? One or two? What is the right way then? In one washing procedure, the head must be soaped twice. These are not the gimmicks of marketers who want us to buy shampoos more often. This is common hygiene. The consumption will not be much more, the second time you need quite a bit of shampoo, literally a pea.
But not only quantity is important, but also quality. And here many, as it turned out, have problems.
Before applying the shampoo, thoroughly wet the scalp and hair. There is no need to rush, otherwise then the consumption of shampoo will be higher, and the result will be worse.
Many experts advise you to first apply the shampoo in the palm of your hand, then add a little water, lather, and only then apply to the scalp. The trichologist confirmed that this is correct. I liked the result myself, but to admit, sometimes I'm lazy.
There are special shakers for foaming shampoo, I was washed once with his hair, now I'm thinking about buying my own. For it is: convenient, economical, high quality. Add shampoo to the bottle, a little water, shake it a little and voila. I found such SHOW TECH shakers for concentrated cosmetics, they have different sizes, and prices are adequate, you can take 0.5 liters for home use.
You shouldn't rush to wash off the shampoo either; you need to massage the scalp well, paying attention to all areas. Massaged for a minute - washed off. You don't have to touch the length at all, and even less rub it, if you don't use styling, the flowing foam will be enough for your hair. If using - additionally gently apply foam to the length and massage.
Important little things
I want to touch on the topic of water temperature. I love hot water, and when I swim in your witch's cauldron in the bathroom, it's very hot there. I also like to wash my head with almost boiling water. But this is a bad habit!
Hot water provokes oily scalp, we reduce the degrees to a comfortable warm temperature, and you can rinse the length at the end with a cold one.
It provokes greasiness and a hot hair dryer, a hair dryer in itself is not evil, I will soon prepare for you an interesting article on how to properly blow dry your hair, I made several discoveries for myself.
Don't forget to wash your combs too. Otherwise, it turns out that the hair was washed and immediately combed with a dirty comb. Now there are a lot of plastic options: Janeke, Tangle Teezer, Fix Price, they are convenient to wash and dry.
Peelings for hair
Do not neglect special hair peels, for this is the highest bliss and a feeling of special purity. I love peels with all my heart, after them the hair is more voluminous, friable, the scalp is exfoliated. Plus, they have a beneficial effect on hair growth, as a pleasant stimulation is obtained. You can list the pros for a long time, but it's better to try once than read 100 times.
I usually buy Scalp Scaling Spa from a Korean brand Lador, it was love from the second time. The first time, for some reason, I didn't really understand anything, but then I saw through. For over a year I have only been taking this peeling, usually grab a couple by the way when I buy something in the Golden Apple. Sometimes I order separately on the Market. It contains 15 ml, which is enough for me not for one, but for two full times without saving.
I like the pleasant chill after peeling, for a year I have not identified a single minus. Now I give it to all my friends. I also look in the direction of the Lebel Cool Orange peeling, but my toad can't persuade me in any way.
Thank you for your attention, it is priceless!
