We’re giving wash day tips. How to make it easy and quick. And less complicated. You don’t have to raid the kitchen to have good healthy hair.
Step 1: Ingredients Check
Some chemical-laden wash day products will strip your hair, leaving it dry and prone to breakage and damage. Our first recommended step is to ensure the products you use are hair-friendly. Avoid certain ingredients like sulfates and parabens

Step 2: The night before your wash day do a pre-poo treatment. This is when you apply a hair oil to your hair to avoid excess moisture stripping during shampooing.
Step 3: While pre-pooing (step 2) try detangle your hair and separate it into 4 and do a two strand twist. This will make washing easier. Using detangling creams will make this process easier. At this step, spritz some water onto your hair to make it less painful
Step 4: You should ideally shampoo your hair in 2-3 steps. Step 1 gets rid of product build up, and 2-3 are your cleansing washes. Make sure you shampoo your hair in parts, either split your hair into 2 parts or 4 per the detangling step.
Step 5: the next step is conditioning. You have 3 options here.
Deep conditioning - 15-30 mins + steaming (breaking or dry hair)
Normal conditioning - quick 5-10 mins
Leave in conditioner
If your hair is dry and breaking we recommend a deep conditioning treatment

Step 6: once a month you can do a protein treatment. This helps strengthen your hair. You can use a hydrolized protein or eggs

Step 7: Use a t-shirt towel to dry your hair. And dry from the root through to the tip, running the towel down your hair shaft. Do not dry your hair in circular motion - this will result in breakage https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧖🏽♀️" title="Woman in steamy room (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman in steamy room (medium skin tone)">

Step 8: LOC IT UP. Do not miss this step. Add some oil and cream to your moist hair after washing. We have bomb creams and oils available on our website - http://shopbeautyontapp.co.za"> http://shopbeautyontapp.co.za
Step 9: Air dry your hair. Try avoid heat. You can either leave it to air dry and shrink- or you can stretch it out by doing a pineapple updo or two strand twist
You should ideally wash your hair weekly but can do it twice a month. Remember a good wash day routine can make the biggest difference to your hair’s health.
