Long ago hair was maintained using soaps, perfumes and natural oils. But these methods did not leave the user with good quality hair. It caused irritations to the eyes and also damaged the natural oil balance of the hair, leaving the hair dry and unhealthy. But, the invention of shampoo was a great advancement in hair care. It was formulated to remove the unwanted dirt, oil and other chemical pollutants from the scalp that had built up over the time. Today, we demand great quality products. The main idea of using shampoo is to clean the scalp, not the hair. The scalp normally produces the natural oil sebum, which protects your hair from being dry and flaky. But as time goes on, dirt gets trapped in the sebum and may cause itchiness and other hair problems. So, regular shampooing helps you to remove that dirty sebum and promotes a new fresh sebum. Though the main purpose of a normal shampoo is effective cleansing of the hair, shampoo makers have to deal with a wide range of needs, varying from conditioning to anti-dandruff formulas. Also, there are mild, natural shampoos available, specially meant for children. Another alternative option is herbal shampoos. Made from natural plant derivates, it is safe to use for people of all ages. One of the widely used herbal shampoos is Face Doctor’s Hair & Scalp Doctor Anti Bacterial Shampoo. It promotes healthy, clean and lustrous hair on formerly itchy and flaky scalps. Also, it makes the hair fibers strong from root to tip. Additionally, its active ingredient, sea buckthorn oil provides a soothing effect to your scalp.
How to shampoo your hair
When using a shampoo, first of all, it is necessary to wet your hair thoroughly. Then take a small amount of shampoo in your palm. Apply it on your scalp and massage it in gently. Afterwards, rinse it thoroughly, ensuring that no shampoo residue is left behind. Thus, you will get a clean and healthy scalp that will promote thick and lustrous hair. Now to make the hair smooth and bouncy it is necessary to use a good conditioner. One good option is Hair & Scalp Doctor Conditioner. Use it just after shampooing. Remember not to apply it on the roots but rather on the tips of the hair. Finally rinse your hair in cold water. It will close the cuticle and help to seal the moisture content.
