Our hair is negatively charged, and the shower gel we use for shampooing contains anions, so after washing the hair, the hair will have more negative charges, resulting in static electricity and the hair will become difficult to comb. Washing your hair will also open the cuticles on the surface of your hair, making your hair rough. The cationic surfactant in the conditioner can be adsorbed on the surface of the hair, and the silicone oil inside can also help close the hair cuticles, making the hair more supple, shiny, easy to manage, and anti-static. It is a lie for some businesses to advertise that their brand of conditioner can remove dandruff, remove oil and nourish hair.
The correct way to use hair conditioner.
1. Conditioner must not be used close to the scalp. It can only be applied to the hair. You can apply more on the ends of the hair. Because the silicone oil, softener, etc. in the conditioner are difficult to clean thoroughly, they can easily clog pores if they stay on the scalp and may also cause folliculitis or even hair loss.
2. After applying conditioner, let it stay on your hair for about 5 minutes before rinsing.
3. The amount of conditioner should not be too much. Just make sure you can apply a thin enough layer on your hair. Don’t overdo it. Applying it thickly will have the same effect, and you should be able to feel the conditioner when you rinse it off. Most conditioners have a fake slippery feel and are difficult to clean off if you use too much.
4. When rinsing the conditioner, try to prevent the conditioner from rinsing into the scalp, face and other parts of the body.
5. If you have scalp folliculitis or seborrheic dermatitis, it is recommended not to use conditioner until it is treated. Because if the conditioner stays on the scalp and is not rinsed off, it may aggravate the condition.
6. The frequency of use of conditioner depends on your hair condition. If your hair is relatively short, the oil secreted by the scalp is enough to nourish the hair, and it is difficult to ensure that the conditioner does not get on the scalp. For this type of friends, you don’t need to use conditioner. If you feel it is really dry, just pay more attention when using it and don’t get it on your scalp. For friends who often perm and dye their hair, you should make your own judgment based on your own hair condition. It does not have to be used every day. It can be used when the hair is dry and frizzy. If you have smooth hair, you don’t need to add any extravagance.
