Sound juicy? Okay, Ladies. Let’s start!

1. Mixing shampoo with water

Professional hairstylists recommend against adding water to your shampoo bottle because it can weaken the formula and make it less effective. For example, if you dilute a damage-repairing shampoo with water, there is a high possibility that you won’t experience the benefits that the shampoo claims to provide.

Many women often add water to their shampoo bottles in order to prolong the lifespan of their shampoo or to ensure that it foams properly.

To ensure proper foaming of your shampoo, begin by tapping the water onto your scalp. This will allow the cool liquid to spread across the surface of your scalp evenly. Next, pour a quarter-sized amount of shampoo into your palm and rub your hands together. Feel the texture change between your palms as you create a luscious foam. Using gentle movements, apply the shampoo foam starting from your hairline and working deep onto your scalp and towards the mid-shaft of your hair. By following these steps, you will increase your chances of experiencing the full benefits of your shampoo ([차홍뷰티] 올바른 샴푸법 | How to wash your hair properly 2020).

2. Applying shampoo directly onto your hair 

Why do professional hairstylists advise against applying shampoo directly to your hair? Well, adding shampoo directly to your hair can damage for several reasons. First, shampoo can strip the natural oils from your hair and scalp, leading to dryness and potential damage. Second, applying shampoo directly to your hair can cause tangles and knots, resulting in breakage and split ends. Lastly, shampoo can be harsh on the scalp, causing irritation and inflammation.

For a proper shampoo, start by pouring a quarter-sized amount of shampoo into your palm. Rub your hands together and feel the texture change as you create a rich foam. Then apply the foam to your wet hair ([차홍뷰티] 올바른 샴푸법 | How to wash your hair properly 2020).

3. Shampooing the ends of your hair

Professional hairstylists advise against applying shampoo to the ends of your hair because the ends are typically drier and more fragile. Shampooing the ends can strip away the natural oils that keep them moisturized, leading to dryness, frizz, and breakage. Stylists suggest shampooing your roots and allowing the shampoo to cleanse the ends while rinsing it out.
