The correct way to wash your hair is, first, to avoid hot water, always opt for lukewarm or cold. Shampoo should only be applied to the roots, gently massaging. After shampooing, apply the conditioner along the length of the hair, helping to close the cuticles and restore softness and shine.

It is worth mentioning that conditioners and hair masks should not be applied to the scalp, as these products can clog pores and aggravate oiliness, favoring the appearance of dandruff and folliculitis.

The best way to dry your hair is to let it happen naturally. However, in very cold and humid seasons, faster drying may be more indicated. But be careful, the dryer must be used at a distance of between 10 and 15cm from the hair, as excess heat can cause damage. Another tip is not to rub the towel on wet hair, as this habit can result in breakage and frizz.
