How To Wash Your Hair Like A Professional Hairdresser

Wet Your Hair From Root To Tip

As many would assume, the first step in the hair-washing process is to wet your hair from root to tip. Be sure to drench your hair in water, preferably at a lukewarm temperature, to ensure you aren’t weakening your hair with scalding water. We see many people not wetting their hair all the way, and when doing this, you risk not getting the maximum benefits of your wash.

Don’t Use Too Much Shampoo

Once your hair is thoroughly wet, it’s time to apply shampoo. The key here is not to overdo it. Too much shampoo can be difficult to rinse out and lead to product build-up. Instead, use a modest amount and ensure it’s evenly distributed throughout your hair, from the roots to the tips.

Massage Your Scalp

To not only get that salon feeling but also to get that extra cleaning, you will want to use your fingertips to go in circular motions around your scalp. Be firm to stimulate circulation throughout your head!

Shampoo Again & Rinse

To be sure all build-up, product, and grease are out of your hair, you will want to shampoo your scalp again, but with a smaller amount. Once you have double shampooed, you will want to rinse all product out of your hair for at least 1 minute.

Add Conditioner

Depending on your hair type and texture, you will use a certain amount of conditioner and apply it to your palm and then your hair to distribute evenly. Be sure to apply the product from the middle of your hair to the end, ensuring you cover all strands.

Rest & Rinse

After allowing the conditioner to work its magic for at least a minute, it’s time to rinse. Use warm or cold water to thoroughly remove the product from your hair. Be sure to rinse until your hair no longer feels slippery. Once you’ve rinsed, gently squeeze out any excess water and your wash is complete. Now, it’s time to dry your hair gently and enjoy the results!
