How often do you wash your hair in winter?
In winter, the dry weather makes many women with long hair feel that their hair is extremely dry and itchy. They not only love static electricity, but also have a lot of hair oil. Although there are many reasons for scalp itching, the main influencing factor in winter is scalp dryness. Affected by the weather, the scalp microenvironment changes in winter, the scalp is dry and dandruff increases.
Sebaceous glands on the scalp and hair follicles on the hair secrete oil every day, which protects and lubricates the scalp and hair. If you wash it too often, this layer of oil will be completely washed away, making the scalp and hair lose their natural protective film and become dry and easy to split.
Actually, there is no need to wash your hair every day. The specific situation varies from person to person. The frequency of washing your hair in winter may be two or three times or twice a week. Generally, washing your hair every other day or two or three days can keep your scalp clean and properly inhibit scalp oil secretion. Excessive cleaning will destroy the microenvironment of the scalp and the secretion of oil will be more vigorous.
How often do you wash your hair in winter? Under normal circumstances, it is advisable to wash it 2-3 times a week; If you are often outdoors, the frequency can be increased appropriately; And rarely go out, people with oily hair can wash it once a week.
Wash your hair well. Many people like to wash their hair with their heads down. However, long-term drooping of the head will affect normal blood circulation, which is not good for hair growth. Therefore, it is more appropriate to wash your hair upright in the shower, and adjust your body to the most comfortable state. When washing your hair, the water temperature must be moderate, generally based on body temperature, and about 37 degrees Celsius is the most suitable.
Washing your hair every two days in winter can prevent static electricity.
The reason why hair generates static electricity in winter is because hair is dry, which is mainly related to dry weather, friction between clothes and hair, and improper shampoo method.
To get rid of static electricity, we must first solve the problem of dry hair. Choose a shampoo with high moisture retention, and keep the frequency of washing your hair 3-7 times a week according to the characteristics of your hair. This can not only keep the hair clean and sanitary, but also reduce the pollution to the facial skin and greatly weaken the electrostatic problem caused by particle friction.
Proper application of some moisturizing lotion after shampooing can also effectively reduce the generation of static electricity, but if scalp oil secretion is strong, it should not be used frequently.
Over-the-shoulder hair is accompanied by the friction of clothes, and it will quickly generate static electricity when it encounters dry cold wind and touch. In order to reduce the trouble, it is best to tie it up. Don't comb your hair with a plastic or metal comb. A wooden comb or horn comb is a good helper to prevent hair from generating static electricity.
Office workers can also use their hands to scalp along the direction of hair growth for a long time in their spare time, which can improve blood circulation, make hair full and resilient, and also reduce the occurrence of static electricity to a certain extent.
It is best not to wash your hair in winter morning.
It is not advisable to wash your hair before going out in the morning, especially in the cold winter, because your hair is not dry, your pores are open, and you are easy to catch cold, even a mild person will have a cold and headache. If this happens frequently, it may also lead to joint pain and even muscle paralysis.
If you have the habit of washing your hair at night or in the morning, be sure to dry it before going to bed or before going out. Ladies must pay attention to dry their bodies and hair after taking a bath to avoid cold evil and moisture, so as to avoid headache, neck and back pain, and even cause some gynecology.
Shampooing is usually better in the afternoon. It is best to choose the time when the temperature is stable during the day. Office workers are busy at work, so they can go home from work and have a rest before washing their hair, so that they have enough time to let their hair dry naturally and avoid some accidents.
How to wash your hair correctly in winter?
Some people who do special jobs insist on washing their hair every day because of hygiene requirements. But no matter who washes his hair, he should pay attention to the choice of shampoo, avoid using too alkaline shampoo, and it is best to add vitamins.
Comb the tangled hair slowly from the end of the hair, then comb it from the root to the end, or even comb it head-down from the brain spoon, which can make the hair smooth, improve blood circulation and clean it with half the effort!
Shampoo, like skin care, must start with basic cleaning work. A complete cleaning work can remove substances that hinder the absorption of nutrients, and subsequent nourishing actions can effectively absorb them.
First, put the shampoo in the palm of your hand, knead it until it bubbles, then apply it to your hair, and wash it from the root to the end of your hair to let it hang down naturally. Gently push around the scalp for two or three times with your fingertips, and then rinse it slowly with flowing warm water. Don't use too hot water, which will cause the scalp to be excessively dry.
Known as the repair function, it can repair damaged hair and isolate the invasion of ultraviolet rays. Use it no more than three times a week, from the scalp to the ends of the hair, then rub it on all parts of the hair, and then rinse it with water. After washing, you can comb it from beginning to end with a wide-toothed comb, and wrap your head with a towel to give full play to the moisturizing ingredients of the conditioner.
Count the shampoo minefields. Have you been shot?
1, not completely wet hair. In order to make your shampoo products work best, please put your hair under the shower head for three to four minutes before washing, and make sure that your hair is completely soaked and not wrung out.
2. The correct sulfate shampoo was not used. Speaking of sulfate shampoo, we advocate the use of coconut oil-based all-natural sulfate shampoo. Without foam, hair can't be cleaned well, precisely because foam creates a vacuum-like environment to absorb dirt and cell residues in the head. After applying shampoo to the back of the head, the top of the head and the sides of the hair, add water until foam can be seen.
3. Too much friction. When washing your hair, if you scratch your scalp or rub your hair hard, it will damage your scalp or hair, so it is best to rub your scalp gently with your fingertips when washing your hair. This can clean the grease and dust on the hair and scalp without damaging the hair and scalp.
4. unnecessary repetition. If you use shampoo, it is enough to use it once. The rumor about washing hair, rinsing and repeating is wrong. These rumors came from the1970s, when women usually washed their hair once a week or more.
5, not rinsed clean. Rinse your hair thoroughly with enough time, and rinse the shampoo from your hair thoroughly. Shampoo that can't be washed clean may make hair oil more easily, and dry lumps will appear behind the ears, which looks like dandruff. Actually, it's not dandruff, it's the shampoo left over from your head.
