The most important part of washing your hair is selecting the right shampoo. Do not opt for harsh shampoos that contain harmful chemicals.

To this effect, you may go for the Godrej Professional Honey Moisture Shampoo. This shampoo is enriched with the goodness of honey and nourishing oils that will reduce hair dryness, making your locks soft and lustrous. Similarly, if you have frizzy hair, you can consider using the Quinoa Smooth Shampoo as it will repair and smoothen them. For fragile hair, you can use Avocado Nourish Shampoo, whereas for dry and damaged hair, you can use the Keratin Rich Shampoo.

Here are the steps to follow while applying shampoo:

  1. Wet your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water
  2. Dilute the shampoo with some water and apply it evenly on your scalp
  3. Massage your scalp gently in a circular motion
