Hair care trends are always in constant change, one of the most recent is the reverse wash, translated from English reverse washing.
The reverse wash or reverse washing It consists of using the conditioner first and then the shampoo.
For Alison Freerwriter of magazine XOJane.com, this method (suggested by a reader) was very helpful. Alison She is like many women: her hair is oily at the roots and dry at the ends, so she had to wash it every day.
The result of this new system, comments Freer on its website, “provides just the right amount of moisture and softness to the hair so that it can be brushed easily, without flattening it.”
Why can reverse washing be better?
Shampoo, especially if you use the ones that can be easily purchased at any supermarket, is designed to remove oil and debris from your hair. But that means that it also damages or removes the necessary and healthy fatty components that the hair contains. That is why common shampoo is generally harmful to hair, and what is usually done is to use conditioner afterwards, to restore what was lost.
But if you follow the steps in reverse, it’s very different for your hair: the conditioner (which can also simply be some natural oil, such as almond oil) protects the hair from the aggressiveness of the shampoo. And believe it or not, by being protected the hair will tangle less, it will be soft and manageable, and it will not be necessary to apply conditioner again.
