If you have read my last post, by now you know that you can't just get into the shower, wash your hair with any shampoo-like thing, vigorously dry your hair with a towel and slap on whatever greasy cream you have on hand.
This week's post is
going to breakdown what a proper wash day should look like once you embark on a
healthy hair journey.
A proper wash day will consist of:
- Pre-poo
- Detangling
- Shampoo/co wash
- Protein treatment (optional)
- Deep moisture treatment
- Leave-In treatment
- Style
THE PRE-POO
A pre-poo is meant to
prepare the hair for the process of shampooing, conditioning and all such that
is meant to come after. It prevents hygral fatigue on your hair strands. [Hygral Fatigue is when the hair shaft
swells excessively in the presence of water. This causes the cuticle of the
hair to lift which can change the uniformity of that layer and lead to splits
in the hair shaft during the drying process].
