Why Apply Conditioner Before Shampoo?

What we all do is that we shampoo our hair first and then condition them. But, according to the hair experts, one should wash their hair in the reverse order, i.e., condition hair before shampooing them.

Reverse Conditioning

Though this method is beneficial for all men and women, but it is a more effective trick for people with thin, oily hair. It is also an advantageous method for people who have a lot of hair products stuck into the hair follicles temporarily (gel, conditioners, hair spray, etc).

If you are wondering why so? Here’s the expert answer! Our dermatologist says that the conditioning before shampooing nourishes the fine hair without flattening them and this is why one should condition the hair first. When you condition your hair after applying shampoo, your hair loses its spark and bounciness soon after drying. Whereas on applying condition first, the hair looks styled, healthy and shiny. In other words, reverse washing helps to keep your hair hydrated, without leaving it coated with a heavy conditioner-based chemical residue.

What to keep in mind while going for Reverse washing? Although Reverse washing seems simple, there are a few things to be considered for better health of your hair:

->If you have thick hair, condition your hair before as well as after shampooing it. This is because you have so much hair that the right moisture will not be obtained with the first layer of conditioner. But, yes use only a tiny amount of conditioner in the second time, basically on the ends.

->Reverse washing works better with some shampoos and conditioner only. That means you have to see which hair products work best for you!

->There are various ways to go for reverse washing. Some prefer conditioning from root-to-tip, lathering it as in case of shampooing, whereas others suggest conditioning at the ends only, leaving the roots relatively untouched.
