I've been meaning to wash my hair for some days and I finally got round to doing it today.
Before I washed my hair this time, I decided to pre-poo.. with coconut oil! I know I've said a few times that my hair hates coconut oil but I decided to just use it on my scalp since I would was still going to wash it out. Apparently,doing this before washing your hair reduces the amount of moisture that is stripped from your hair when you wash it. So, I oiled my scalp with coconut oil overnight.
Before I started washing my hair, I put it into 3 sections to make it easier to wash.
I wet my scalp with a bit of water from my spray bottle and then I used my V05 Kiwi Lime Squeeze Clarifying Conditioner to wash my scalp. I use this conditioner when I don't want to shampoo but my hair needs a good cleanse. I like how it cleanses my scalp really well without stripping my hair. I've had it for over a year but it's practically finished now so I have to look for it again. I use a little amount and apply it to each line on my scalp. After doing this on each section, I massage my scalp just like I do when I'm washing my natural hair.
After I've done this on all sections, I rinse my scalp with warm water. I read somewhere that washing your hair with warm water helps open up the pores and is good for removing oil and dirt from your hair. So I usually use warm water to wash my hair. After washing my scalp and making sure it's clean, I use cold water to close the pores. I don't know if using cold water after really makes much of a difference but that's what I do.
When I'm done, I wrap my hair up in a towel for about 10-15 minutes. When I take it off, my hair is still wet but at least my hair wouldn't drip so much. Plus, it makes air drying faster.
When my hair is practically dry I spritz my scalp with a little water, glycerine and castor oil.
Washing my hair in braids usually doesn't take more than 20 minutes though air drying takes a while.
What techniques do you use to wash your hair while it's in braids?
Oyime :)
Does this work with wool though? How do you rinse it out without super dripping? Thank you.
ReplyDeleteYes it will work for wool too.. After rinsing each section I squeeze the water from the braids before wrapping it up in a towel.
