How to use cleansing conditioner

WET HAIR DON’T CARE

Over-washing can damage your tresses and can cause your scalp to produce excess oil. Some stylists recommend washing your hair 3 times a week, but you know your hair best -only wash when required.

Before you pick up your cleansing conditioner, make sure your hair is soaking wet. Rinsing your hair thoroughly before you begin to cleanse will help to get rid of any dirt lurking on the surface of your hair, preparing it for a deep cleanse. Also remember to keep the temperature of the water cool, not hot! We all love a steamy shower but keeping the water cool will lock in moisture and prevent long term damage.

Cleanse, Dance* & Rinse

Forget cleanse, rinse and repeat. Apply the cleansing conditioner (the amount you would usually use for normal shampoo, around 2.5cm in diameter) and work it into your scalp and the lengths of your hair. Apply minimal pressure –your scalp is not as dirty as it feels!

Remember that, unlike traditional conditioners, cleansing conditioners don’t need to be liberally applied to the ends of your hair. Then have a 3 minute shower shimmy (or just leave it in for 3 minutes) and then rinse thoroughly.

*Dancing is not compulsory, but it is fun!

THE GOD FATHER OF LOW LATHER

When you are working the cleansing conditioner into your hair, avoid scrubbing like you might with shampoo as this can cause damage to the hair. Gently massage and work it into your scalp. It won’t lather up like a regular shampoo or conditioner.

Grow Gorgeous Cleansing Conditioners are free of harsh chemicals, so rather than stripping the oils from your hair, they work with them to leave you with clean and shiny locks.

DON'T BE A HOT MESS

Grow Gorgeous Cleansing Conditioners cleanse and nourish your hair and prevent it from drying out, so avoid over-using heated hair tools when possible. Air drying your hair once a week can go a long way in improving your hair health. Even turning down the heat on your tools will help to reduce the damage caused to your hair.

Remember before you reach for styling irons or tongs; make sure your hair is fully dry. Exposing even slightly damp hair to intense heat can cause long lasting damage, as your hair is more vulnerable when it is wet.
