Do you ever notice that in the summer, your hair doesn't look as great as it usually does? Fine hair looks limp and lacks volume, and curly hair has frizz in place of curls. We all think it's because of heat and humidity but that is only PART of the problem. So we go out and buy all sorts of products for frizz, heat, volume, etc.
The MAIN culprit of bad summer hair is the build-up of stuff in your hair. Chlorine, hair oils that you spray on your hair in the sun, spray, hair products, wax, salt, mineral deposits from shower water - they all build up in your hair over time. The only way to get them out it to detox your scalp and clean it as you would your face during a facial.
This one is my personal favourite- I love all hair products by FEKKAI
If you live in the U.A.E, you can find it at all FACES stores, and Bloomingdales
How to use cleansing shampoo
1) DON'T use it everyday or you will dry out your hair & strip it of the essential oils it needs to look healthy. You will also ruin your highlights and hair color
2) Once a week, replace your regular shampoo with cleansing shampoo
3) Apply a dime sized amount from your roots to your ends. It will not lather like regular shampoo
4) Wash it out
5) Apply another dime sized amount and massage it well into your scalp and spread throughout your hair. The more your massage it in, the more you loosen the build up of products in your hair
6) Leave it for 2 minutes then wash it out
7) Apply your regular conditioner and rinse out well
