Correct mathematics of hair wash: Do you also wash your hair daily? Know how often to shampoo correctly
The beauty and health of hair depends a lot on how and how often you wash them. Often people are confused whether hair should be washed daily or once a week. Beauty experts believe that too much or too little hair wash can spoil the health of hair. Daily shampooing depletes the natural oil of the hair, causing them to become rough and lifeless and start breaking.
What is the right schedule for your scalp?
The frequency of hair washing should depend on your scalp type:
Oily Scalp: If your scalp gets sticky easily, you can wash your hair on alternate days. This will prevent dirt and extra oil from accumulating.
Dry and frizzy hair: If your hair is dry or curly, then washing your hair only 1 to 2 times a week is enough. Repeated washing can cause them to get more tangled.
Normal Hair: For normal hair, shampooing 2 to 3 times a week is considered ideal.
‘Golden rule’ of shampooing: never apply directly
Most people pour the shampoo bottle directly on the head, which can damage the hair roots. The correct way to use shampoo is:
Take some water in a bowl.
Mix shampoo in it as per your need.
Mix this mixture well and then apply it on the scalp. This method reduces the direct effect of shampoo chemicals and prevents the hair from becoming lifeless.
Oiling: Grandmother’s recipe is most effective
Nourishing the hair before shampooing is as important as cleaning. Grandmothers have always advised ‘Champi’ i.e. oil massage.
Overnight Nutrition: It is best to apply oil to your hair the night before shampooing.
Instant Oiling: If time is short, then apply oil at least 1 to 2 hours before washing hair. Due to this, the hair does not become excessively dry after shampoo and it gets strengthened from within.
Choose mild shampoo
Instead of shampoos containing hard chemicals available in the market, choose ‘mild’ or shampoos with natural ingredients. Sulfate and paraben free shampoos help maintain the natural shine of hair and reduce the problem of hair fall.
