    Dull hair, frizzy hair or flaky scalp, is every day turning out to be a bad hair day. Many people blame all hair problems on weather. Do you know that shampooing your hair right can help you to tackle most of hair problems.We have listed 5 steps that you might not be following while shampooing your hair.

    Your Hair Are not wet enough

    For most of the shampoo to work optimally, they need completely wet hair. Be sure to wet your hair for 3-4 minutes prior to applying shampoo.

    You are not letting your shampoo to lather

    Experts say that with out a lather hair do not get cleaned, as lather creates kind of vacuum action that sucks dirt and dead cells from scalp. Ideally after applying shampoo on your head, add some water and work up lather before rinsing it away.

    Your hair may be suffering from friction

    Rubbing your hair strands vigorously between your hands can be a cause of damage for your hair. Right way to shampoo is gently massaging your scalp with fingertips, as this is the place that needs cleaning up.

    You may be washing too much

    Many people follow lather, rinse and repeat routine, which is not required these days as most of the people shampoo their hair at least twice a week. The old routine was for the days when shampooing was done just once a week.

    You Are Not Rinsing Enough after Hair Wash

    After shampoo you may not be rinsing your hair thoroughly and in some times your hair suffers from residual product build-up which make them limp and lack lustre, other than this it can result in flaky and itchy scalp so take out time to rinse your hair properly after every wash.
