HOW TO USE SULFATE FREE SHAMPOO PROPERLY

After switching to Sulfate free shampoos you probably experienced not getting proper cleansing or your hair feeling a bit greasy or oily am I right?

Then you are stuck in the dilemma of switching back to Sulfates or Living with greasy hair for life.

But don’t worry I have got you covered you don’t need to switch back to those nasty sulfates, Sulfate free shampoos are made from mild detergents that are not harmful to hair like Sulfates so there are just few steps you need to follow to get your hair clean, non greasy, soft and strong using sulfate free shampoo.

1. Use soft water. Sulfate free shampoos don’t lather in hard water same as harsh chemical detergents as they are very mild and gentle so please use soft water while using sulfate free products. Also Hard water damages the hair, so steer clear of it.

2. Thoroughly wet your hair before applying sulfate-free shampoo. This also goes for regular shampoo but it’s so necessary for sulfate-free shampoo. If your hair isn’t completely soaked, it’s hard to apply the product and distribute it through your hair.

3. Partition your hair into 4 sections. The top, from nape of neck to the back of head, 2 parts of hair length. Take a little bit of shampoo for each part and lather it up and clean these parts one by one.

4. Apply more water, instead of more product. If you’re struggling to get any lather to wash your hair with sulfate-free shampoo, apply more water instead of more product. The water will help activate the shampoo and spread it through your hair. Apply little bit more product if truly needed.

5. Massage gently and clean it out or wait 3 mins after applying the shampoo and let it do its work. Sulfate free shampoos are mild detergents not harmful to hair So letting the shampoo sit for few mins isn’t going cause any harm.

6. Shampoo twice. Without the foaming action, it’s harder to remove the dirt and oil from your hair. The second shampoo really lifts it out and cleans your hair. Plus you’ll find the second shampoo lathers up more easily.

7. Rinse your hair thoroughly. Make sure to really rinse your hair. Any residue from the sulfate-free shampoo will make your hair feel heavy.
Follow up with conditioner. Comb your conditioner through from midlengths to ends (no need to condition your scalp) and then rinse well.
