Many people are puzzled — no matter how well they care for their hair, it still falls out!! Did you know that most people have been washing their hair the wrong way all along? Because the everyday things many people overlook may be damaging their hair and scalp without them realizing it. So how should you clean your hair to keep it strong? We have the "correct hair washing" technique from a Japanese doctor to share.
First rinse — focus on truly rinsing, not just wetting
Before applying shampoo, you need to rinse with water first. This rinsing is not just about getting it wet — you must rinse thoroughly, covering the entire scalp and hair, almost like washing your hair with plain water. This step alone can remove a lot of dirt.
Lather shampoo before applying to hair
If you like squeezing shampoo directly onto hair or onto your hand and then slapping it on and rubbing until it lathers, change that habit right away. When hair is wet it is at its weakest, and doing that can cause breakage. The right way is to lather the shampoo in your hands first, then apply it to the hair. If you can't get a good lather, you can use a foaming net to help.
Focus on cleaning the scalp
After rinsing and applying shampoo, another important step is the washing itself. True hair washing means cleaning the scalp. Most of us tend to scrub and focus mainly on the hair strands, but you should actually focus on the scalp — use your fingertips to massage thoroughly for good blood circulation and strong, non-fall-prone hair.
Rinse thoroughly, then blow-dry after washing
For the rinsing step, many people already do this correctly — rinsing from the nape or base of the neck upward. Simply put, tilt your head forward and rinse from the nape downward. It is recommended to take twice as long rinsing as you did lathering, to be completely clean. Then blow-dry within 5 minutes of finishing.
