Hair care begins with caring for the scalp – a truth that everyone should know. We may often not give it valuesbut regular use dry shampoos, conditioners, gels, varnishes and other cosmetics for washing and styling leads to the accumulation of residues of these funds on the surface of the scalp. They, in turn, clog the hair follicles and prevent the skin from breathing normally. As a result, the strands become dry, dull, lifeless, their growth slows down and even appears dandruff.
The problem of oily hair is also added to this list, because excess sebum retains impurities on the skin and makes curls heavier, which makes them quickly become dirty.
