Proper hair care is all about washing hair in the right way! If you take care of your hair and scalp well, it can be a great self care experience. But the wrong hair care can also damage your scalp and hair strands.
So here are some top tips to wash your hair:
- Comb out and detangle your hair.
- Rinse in lukewarm to cold water rather than steamy hot water. Hot water can dry out your scalp, hair, and your skin.
- Start your shower by shampooing your hair. Focus on the roots and scalp.
- Massage your scalp when shampooing with your fingers. (Do NOT scratch your scalp with your nails or rub your hair)
- Use a shampoo and conditioner that is natural and sulfate free. The recommended product will depend on your hair type and personal preferences, but try to find products that are vegan, sulfate free options with natural ingredients as they are more gentle and safe on your hair and scalp.
- Leave a conditioner for a few minutes or a mask on your hair strands for 10 minutes while you wash the rest of your body.
- Ring out the water with a microfiber towel.
- Comb bottom parts of your hair with a wide tooth comb and let it air dry.
- Use your TOHI Scalp Serum to hydrate your scalp and seal in nutrients ** This is a leave in product – shampoos and conditioners wash off but leave in products do the most well for your scalp and hair by delivering their benefit throughout the day.
- You do not have to wash your hair everyday. It’s up to you on how many times you wash your hair per week depending on exposure to the environment and how your scalp and hair feels. If you have an oily scalp, tend to use more styling products, you've gone outside or exercised, you may want to wash your hair more so than if you are at home everyday.
