Question: What is the proper technique for shampooing and conditioning?
Answer:
Shampoo removes dirt, oil and product build up, while conditioner locks in moisture. Use the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type. Our stylists would be happy to recommend.
Brush the hair and scalp before showering. Wet the hair and scalp thoroughly. Pour about a quarter-size amount of shampoo into your palms and rub them together. Using your finger-tips massage shampoo onto the scalp and work downwards towards the ends. Treat long hair gently. Rinse the hair thoroughly until all shampoo is removed. Squeeze as much water out of the hair as you can, use a towel for longer hair and gently press against the hair to remove water. Apply conditioner to hair starting at the ends, and gently moving upward, stay away from the roots.
For longer hair use a wide tooth comb.Rinse conditioner thoroughly. Visit our website for more info.
