Deep cleansing shampoo

We can say that shampoo is the same hygiene product as soap or toothpaste. Everyone knows that hair should be washed several times a week, and better - as it gets dirty. But how much washes away daily shampoo, does it really cleanse? Of course not, it removes only part of the impurities and sebum without penetrating into the deeper layers of the scalp. And in order to “pull out” the dirt from there, you need a stronger tool. For example, a deep cleansing shampoo.

Perhaps you think you don't need a deep cleansing of your hair. Most likely it is not. If you color your curls or often style them with styling products, if you like to make masks or are lovers of dry shampoos, then a deep cleanser is vital for you.

That's why. Think silicones, waxes, oils, moisturizers or cleansing powder—any product you use (even your regular conditioner). Add here, for example, chlorine from the water in the pool and dust from the roads of the metropolis. All this remains on your hair and scalp, since a completely ordinary shampoo cannot remove it. Thus, the hair becomes greasy faster, their growth slows down, they begin to fall out.

Most shampoos are designed for gentle cleansing and include a roughly equal proportion of surfactants and additives for shine and softness. In comparison, deep cleansing shampoos contain fewer conditioners and more surfactants to clean hair as much as possible. You may need this remedy if:

• You are preparing your hair for coloring. This ensures that the color will last longer, the pigment will penetrate deeper into the hair, and the curls themselves will be less damaged, since the paint will not contribute to the accumulation of dirt in the hair structure, will not seal it inside. Of course, you don’t need to do it on the same day with coloring - go to the hairdresser a day or two after. The same applies to lamination and perm hair - so the result will be better and last longer.
• You use a large number of masks and balms, so you need timely cleaning and prevention of excessive sebum secretion. Because silicones, waxes, and other ingredients coat your hair and build up over time, they can (and certainly will) thin your hair structure, contribute to split ends and breakage, and make your hair look greasy.

• To give volume to thin and straight hair before an important event, you can wash your hair with this shampoo. Since the cleansing with this tool is deeper, it will really help to achieve volume by removing dirt and everything superfluous from the follicles. In this case, do not apply it to the roots, only to the tips and lengths.But again, don't make it a habit - it can really dry out your hair. Just before a very important event.
• You have oily hair or scalp. Of course, such curls require more thorough care and a really good cleanser. If oily hair drives you crazy, use a deep cleaning shampoo once or twice a week, alternating it with one, two or three regular ones, since often the problem of oily hair is associated precisely with the wrong product or the sebaceous glands getting used to surfactants.
• You want to enhance the effect of the hair mask. As you know, paints fit better on a clean prepared canvas. Any mask will work much more effectively if it does not have to break through layers of sebum and dirt. Make yourself such a habit - once a week to carry out deep cleansing, and then make a mask, any - against oily hair, to accelerate growth or prevent inflammation. Deep conditioning will also help restore your hair to a softer, silky feel.
• If you have bleached hair. Especially for blondes: bleaching your hair makes it very porous, which means it's easier to absorb yellow tones from the environment - the sun's rays, like city air pollution, cigarette smoke, or even your styling products. If your hair has a yellowish tint, and you want to remove it, then you should make a habit of using a deep cleansing shampoo once a week, as well as an ash blonde shampoo with a purple corrector.

Such shampoos cleanse the pores of the scalp, which contributes to the flow of oxygen, that is, they begin to breathe.. This leads to accelerated hair growth, as well as a reduction in hair loss.After cleaning the hair scales with shampoo, care should be taken to close them, use a hair balm, thereby preventing further contamination. In addition, thorough cleansing, in principle, heals the hair, improves its condition, makes it more elastic and strong and protects it from the negative effects of the environment, hard water.

The use of a deep cleanser is not particularly difficult, but it is worth remembering that you can use it only once or twice a month. You can divide the stage of washing your hair with it into several actions:

1. First, wet your hair with warm water.
2. Apply a small amount of shampoo to the hair with massaging movements, distribute along the length and leave for three to four minutes. At this time, you can use the shower gel.
3. Wash off the shampoo.
4. Apply a mask or balm to your hair, keeping them in accordance with the characteristics of the application - you should not overexpose inorganic products on your hair for longer than expected, as chemicals in this case can harm the hair.
5. After rinsing, dry your hair in the usual way - naturally or with a hairdryer.

They degrease the hair and neutralize the negative effects of the environment, including hard water. And, on the contrary, they enhance the effect of paints, masks and laminating compounds, prolonging the result for weeks.But if you use a deep cleansing shampoo after dyeing, it will help wash out the pigment from the hair structure.

Many brands of professional cosmetics have deep cleansing shampoos in their lines - for example, Estel, Ollin, Kapous, Concept, Constant Delight. The cosmetics of these companies are used in salons and fashion shows, they are of high quality and efficiency, as well as mild or non-traumatic effect.

Almost any professional tool has a home counterpart. As a rule, it is more difficult to use such products, since they need to be prepared independently, and the application process has its own difficulties. However, this does not mean that they are less effective. In between using professional shampoos, you can use some recipes:

• For example, if you add one or two tablespoons of soda to your regular daily shampoo and leave it on your hair for a few minutes, because soda is an alkali that dissolves fats and exfoliates. Hair growth is accelerated due to blood flow to the skin. It will also help get rid of dandruff and add volume to the hair at the roots.

How to use: add a teaspoon of soda to one portion of shampoo, mix and apply to hair with massaging movements.. Can be repeated. It is better if the shampoo you use is natural. It is impossible to add soda to shampoo in advance, as it can react with surfactants. You can use soda without shampoo - just moisten with water and rinse the roots.

• A great idea is to scrub your scalp. You can use salt, sugar or the same soda, as well as several essential oils.

How to use: you will need two tablespoons of an abrasive base - either sugar (for dry scalp), or salt (for oily), or soda, a universal option. So much water.To enhance the effect, we recommend adding five drops of essential oils - rosemary, mint, lemon, coniferous or tea tree, and two tablespoons of clay (black, white or green).

Clay as an independent element is also great. You need to take three to four tablespoons of green, white or black clay, mix with the same amount of warm water or herbal infusion (nettle, oak bark or chamomile), add five to six drops of essential oils - the same as in the case of scrub. Clay should be applied to the scalp and left for half an hour to an hour. Remember that such a mask is not easy to wash off - first you should thoroughly moisten your head, then use regular shampoo two or three times.

Deep cleaning shampoo Estel "Essex". Customers note its softness - the product acts very carefully, so the hair does not actually injure. The composition includes keratin and panthenol, which is why the curls after washing are shiny and lively. They are easy to comb, and in general they look quite decent - the scalp breathes, but, alas, it will not be possible to delay the day of shampooing. Can be used before coloring - really prolongs color fastness. It is sold only in a volume of 1 liter for 300-400 rubles.

Kapous shampoo for all hair types costing 400 rubles per liter has a rating of 4, 4 and very conflicting reviews. The girls themselves periodically change their minds - either the remedy suits them completely, or not at all. There are several questions about the composition - yes, even judging by it, you can understand that the shampoo cleans really well, but the products included in its composition can also accumulate in the hair structure. Therefore, it is often not recommended to use it. Regarding the packaging, the shampoo does not have a dispenser, which is completely inconvenient. A liter bottle is a lot, especially considering the use once or twice a month (more often it’s not worth it, since the composition is really not the best). Ladies note that curls after shampoo are badly combed - sometimes even a balm does not save, they creak from cleanliness and the feeling of breathing of the scalp is really present.
