Are you sure you really know everything about the shampoo? Washing your hair is now an automatic, easy and even relaxing operation (while of course singing out loud), which is done without thinking - a bit like eating, sleeping or breathing - yet, what not everyone knows is that there are some small precautions that can improve they way we clean and the health of our hair with shampoo. Often, in fact, it happens that while maintaining good nutrition and using excellent hair care products, after shampooing they still give us the impression of being weakened or in poor condition. This is why it is very important to get rid of small errors that tend to reduce the washing yield and that can have consequences on the health of our hair, like weakening, split ends, brittle and even falling out.
1. Not brushing our hair before
Especially if they are very long, it is important to prepare your hair for washing by combing it carefully, thus avoiding knots that you have to untangle while the hair is wet (wrong!).
2. Always using the same product
We all probably have our favorite shampoo but, according to experts, it would be better to change the product every two months. In fact, if the same product is used all year round, the risk is that a sort of "accumulation" of certain ingredients (for example silicones) is created on the hair, which damage and weaken the lengths.
3. Using too much shampoo
A 1 euro coin can be a good reference for understanding the right amount of product to use, so as not to damage the hair and reduce pollution. Another very important factor is to carefully wet the hair before application: to ensure that the shampoo works at its best, the hair must be completely saturated with water without squeezing it. In addition, abundant water also has the function of diluting the shampoo so as not to weigh down the hair.
4. Using too hot water
No, no, and again, no. Even though the hot shower is one of the most relaxing things in the world it's not good for the scalp and lengths at all. Better therefore to aim for a warm jet.
5. Massage the hair tips
Often we focus too little on the skin and too much on the tips. Rubbing and rubbing the tips can damage the hair and make it dry: the tips of the hair will be washed without rubbing them, thanks to the water and shampoo on the skin.
