Don’t be afraid of washing your afro hair! It’s screaming for moisture. The more you give, the better it gets. The most important moisturising ingredient your hair requires is water. Hair wash, if done correctly has an immensely positive impact on your hair health. Keep reading to find out the best technique to wash your afro.

How To Shampoo

The first step in washing your hair is shampooing. Pick the gentlest shampoo that suits your hair needs. Use it sparingly as overdoing it can cause dryness.

• Wet your hair with lukewarm water before applying the shampoo.
• Take a dime-sized amount of shampoo and work it into a lather. Massage your scalp deeply to stimulate your follicles and remove any kind of residue or build up.
• Rinse your hair until all traces of the shampoo are gone. Part your hair to make sure it is all out.
• Gently squeeze out excess water from your hair.

Pro Tip: Take your time and wash your hair gently, your strands are delicate and might break under too much pressure.

How To Condition

The next step is to wash your hair with a good quality conditioner. Never skip hair conditioning. It provides your hair with the moisture it needs.

• Apply a generous amount of conditioner from root to tips. Avoid getting conditioner on your scalp.
• Let the conditioner sit for five to ten minutes for a deep penetrating treatment.
• Gently rinse the product and squeeze out the excess water
