Quick beauty tips #2 - How to make your hair last longer between washes

Here we are with the second instalment of quick beauty tips! Washing your hair every day is "unhealthy" for your hair as it strips it of it's natural oils. Here's a couple of tips I found for how I actually shampoo and condition my hair to help prolong how long it will last between washes. 



Tip 1. When shampooing, place your shampoo on your scalp and concentrate on massaging it in there. Since the scalp is where your hair will become greasy fastest, it is the area that needs the deepest clean. You can then let the shampoo wash through the length of your hair as you rinse it out. This is will enough to wash the rest of your hair.

Tip 2. Before conditioning, squeeze the excess water out of the ends of your hair. This will make your conditioner more concentrated and help give your hair a deeper nourishment. (It will also mean you can use less product so you won't run out as fast!) Only apply conditioner to the ends of your hair as that hair is the oldest therefore most dry and damaged. I like to leave in my conditioner for a couple of minutes before rinsing to let all the goodness soak in to my hair. 


Hope you found these helpful!
