The Perfect Shampoqing Technique

2. Pour shampoo into the palm of one hand and then rub both palms together to distribute it evenly.
3. Apply the shampoo to the top of your head and use fingertips to massage it on to your scalp.
4. Depending on your hair's thickness and length, you may need to repeat the previous two steps for the rest of your hair.
5. Rinse all the lather from your hair with plenty of water. One application of shampoo is usually enough, unless your hair is very dirty or has oil in it, in which caseyou might need a second rinse.
6. After shampooing, don't rub your hair vigorously which may break fragile hair shafts. Pat it dry gently and wrap your hair in a towel.
