1. Oiling and Detangling (Pre-Wash)
- Tip: Apply oil (e.g., coconut, argan) to the scalp and hair to nourish roots and improve texture.
- Action: Gently detangle with a wide-tooth comb to avoid breakage.
- Tip: Use a sulfate-free shampoo suitable for your hair type, focusing on the scalp rather than the entire length.
- Action: Wash with lukewarm water to remove buildup, ensuring hair is clean.
3. Conditioning
- Tip: Apply conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends, not the scalp, to prevent oiliness.
- Action: Rinse thoroughly with cool water to seal the hair cuticles for shine.
- Tip: Use a deep conditioning hair mask weekly to repair damage and add moisture.
- Action: Leave on for 15-20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
5. Protecting and Styling (Post-Wash)
- Tip: Apply a hair serum or oil to the ends to lock in moisture, and use heat protectants before styling.
- Action: Limit heat styling and opt for air-drying whenever possible.
