16.03.2024 22:10

When taking care of their hair, most girls use expensive products, visit beauty salons and try to monitor its condition.

At the same time, everyone makes a typical mistake: they wash their hair with hot water, without even realizing all the risks.

Therefore, it is worth understanding why washing your hair with hot water is unacceptable.

Negative impact on the scalp

Hot water can irritate and dry out the scalp. The result is a disruption of blood circulation in the hair follicles, which increases the likelihood of hair loss.

Hair structure deteriorates

Constantly using hot water can damage the outer layer of your hair, making it more brittle and prone to breakage. This can increase the risk of hair loss when brushing or styling.

The follicles are damaged

High water temperatures can damage hair follicles, especially if your scalp is sensitive or prone to irritation.

If this happens, hair growth will gradually begin to slow down, and this will negatively affect their condition.

How to wash your hair properly

To prevent hair loss and improve its condition, it is recommended to use warm or cool water when washing your hair. It is also important to choose mild shampoos that do not dry out the scalp.

It also makes sense to use special moisturizing products after washing your hair.

Things to remember

It may seem that hot water does not cause serious harm, but this is a typical mistake. The skin on the head requires careful care.

If you ignore this basic rule, you will not be able to achieve healthy hair.
