Experts Reveal the Correct Order of Applying Hair Care Products

Should you apply a hair oil before washing your hair or use it as a leave-in treatment post conditioning? Is it always necessary to condition your hair after a shampoo wash? If these questions are baffling you, let Godrej Professional experts help you master your hair care routine.

Do you need a step-by-step hair care routine? The answer is yes. While hair types and textures differ from individual to individual, there is a no-questions-asked order of applying hair care products in the correct manner. Follow these hair care routine steps for best results.

#1 Shampoo Scalp and Hair

Use shampoos as the first step to your hair cleansing routine. A good shampoo can help clear dirt, oil and product buildup from the scalp, and improve hair health. It is essential to shampoo hair at least twice or thrice a week, depending on your hair type.

Use the Honey Moisture Shampoo to treat dry and damaged tresses.

Usage Recommendation:

• Apply the Honey Moisture Shampoo evenly on the scalp after wetting your hair.
• Lather it at the roots and then work it through the lengths of hair.
• Rinse well with cold water.

Enriched with the goodness of honey, this shampoo adequately moisturizes hair revealing nourished, soft and bouncy locks. It also has nourishing oils that combats dryness bringing hair back to life with a lustrous appearance. The best part? This product has no added parabens making it a gentle yet effective formulation.

You can use this along with the Honey Moisture Mask to fill in your weekly masking ritual.

#2 Never Skip a Conditioner

Do you need to condition your hair after using a shampoo? Skipping out on a conditioner can leave your strands frizzy. Conditioners help to seal in essential nutrients in the strands, ensuring that they remain moisturized and nourished up until the next hair wash.

Use the Keracare Recharge Conditioner that is suitable for all Indian hair types.

How to apply the Keracare Recharge Conditioner?

• Shampoo your hair thoroughly and apply an adequate amount of the Keracare Recharge Conditioner on damp hair.
• Distribute it evenly through the mid-lengths and ends of hair.
• Rinse hair after three minutes.

This product is enriched with Acai Oil and wheat protein to deeply nourish hair and repair damage. It helps manage frizz, making hair soft and manageable, with the added sheen.

P.S.: Do not use this conditioner on your scalp!

#3 Apply a Hair Mask Weekly

Can you use multiple hair care products? Of course, as long as the usage is spaced out, giving your scalp and hair enough time to breathe. A hair mask is your hair’s best friend, ensuring effective restoration of moisture to the strands. It also helps with additional benefits depending on the type of hair mask you choose.

Hair masks should only be applied once a week in your step-by-step hair care routine. Use the Honey Moisture Mask for best results.

Usage Recommendation:

• Apply an adequate amount of the Honey Moisture Mask on damp hair, after shampooing.
• Distribute the mask evenly across the scalp and strands with your finger, leaving it on for at least five minutes.
• Rinse thoroughly.

The goodness of honey and nourishing oils in this mask can help revive dull, fragile and damaged hair, from the roots to the tips. In fact, it is also safe for chemically treated and coloured hair.

#4 Nourishing Oils for the Win

Can you use hair oils after washing your hair with a shampoo and conditioner? Yes, the Godrej Professional range of hair oils should never be left out after a good hair rinse. They are effective in treating dull and dry hair.

You can choose between the Acai Oil that protects porous hair by deeply moisturizing it or the Argan Oil that is enriched with UV protect ingredients to safeguard your hair from sun exposure, dust and pollution. It also nourishes your hair by adding a layer of gloss.

These oils can also be used every 2 to 3 days depending on how often you wash your hair. This should be the last of your hair care routine steps.

A proper hair care routine does not have to be too complicated - it just needs to be adequate for your hair type. Follow this routine to achieve nourished, manageable hair in no time.
