Basics- Shampooing


So what is the best way to shampoo your hair so you don't look like a crazy rabid animal in the morning? Shampoo your head not your hair. Here are the steps:
  • 1) Before you even get your hair wet brush it. This will loosen up the tangles, dirt, and oil in your hair.
  • 2) Get your hair totally wet. Work the warm water(that's right girls, no more scalding hot water for your hair) through your hair.
  • 3) Put some shampoo in your hands first then work it through the front of your hair down the sides and back. Rinse.
  • 4) Repeat, but this time flip your head upside and start at the nape working the lather back to the crown and front of your head. Rinse. Rinse. Rinse. If you don't get a nice foaming lather you need to do steps 3 & 4 again.
There is no need to work the shampoo through the ends of your hair unless your in construction or you lost that mud wrestling match you went to. Tomorrow we'll work on conditioning. In a future blog we'll discuss oily hair.
