Hair fall and damage has been a great problem for people. The right way to shampoo your hair can make a lot of difference. It may seem like one of the easiest steps in the morning, but doing it right can do wonders to your hair. Here are four rules you must follow while shampooing your hair.

1.Choose the right shampoo
Pick a right shampoo for your hair type. If you're confused on what shampoo you should buy, you can consult a hair stylist or trichologist. And, instead of buying a 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner combo, buy a separate shampoo and conditioner bottle for better results. Wet your hair properly

One mistake a lot of us make is not wetting hair properly. Before applying the product, you must wet your hair under the shower for about 2-3 minutes, so your hair is completely wet. This will help absorb the product better.

2.Apply it at the right place
When shampooing, focus more on the scalp area, where the roots are and not the hair ends. And, when you are using a conditioner, lather it on the hair ends and not the roots.

3.Rinse properly
Once you have applied the shampoo, don't rinse it immediately. Let the shampoo be on your hair for at least 2-3 minutes, so it can work properly. Also, use cold water, instead of hot water. Cold water will help to seal the hair cuticles, which will prevent further damage.

4.Don't wash your hair every day
Washing your hair every day can end up damaging your hair more than you think. Try to limit your washes to 3-4 times a week. If you feel your hair is greasy, you can use a dry shampoo in between.
