The procedure for washing hair for the vast majority is to simply wash them with shampoo under running tap water. But not many people think that this can do harm. In the process of washing, the scales on the hairs open, the cementing component is washed out from under them, and the hair becomes defenseless against the aggressive effects of liquid and friction.
For the beauty and health of curls, it is very important to know how and how to properly wash your hair, as well as what to do before and after:
Important! Hair with regular heating becomes brittle, dull and brittle, as the scales rise on them, and the inner layer loses moisture and grease. Therefore, if after washing your hair you intend to use a hair dryer, curling iron, etc., sprinkle your still damp curls with a heat-protective spray enriched with vitamins E and B5, proteins and plant extracts.
The longer your hair, the more times its ends have been subjected to traumatic washing procedures. In order for regrown curls to be beautiful and healthy, they should be washed according to the rules, which depend on the type of detergent you have chosen.
To achieve not only cleanliness, but also beauty, you should choose a shampoo strictly for your hair type (dry, oily, normal). Consult in a beauty salon or in the cosmetic department of the store. Perhaps you will be selected a highly specialized tool, for example, for dyed normal or long split ends.
It is worth reading carefully what is written on the package. Some shampoos contain silicone. Thanks to him, the hair is very well combed and shiny. But it blocks the access of oxygen, and after a while the curls become thinner and begin to fall out. It is not recommended to use this shampoo for a long time.
If the composition of the product contains foaming sulfates, for example, SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) or SLES (sodium laureth sulfate) and others, then in general you should think about the need to buy this particular shampoo. Yes, it will foam well, but the scalp and curls will become dry, allergies may begin, with constant contact with the eyes - cataracts.
And sulfates have the ability to accumulate in the body, causing serious diseases later. Yes, and for beauty, the benefits are doubtful, because overdried skin will begin to recover hastily, intensively releasing fat, hair will become greasy, and you will have to wash your hair more often. Organic shampoos with less aggressive surfactants lather less, but are not harmful.
When washing your hair with shampoo, the following recommendations should be observed:
Hair extensions are more difficult to wash. If they are synthetic, then washing them in the usual way is not recommended at all, dry shampoo should be used. Hairdryer and hot styling for such hair is also contraindicated. Natural extended strands can be washed as usual, but if at the end of the procedure you apply conditioner, then distribute it far from the keratin capsules, otherwise the latter will collapse.
The composition of the balms really makes such washing of the head possible, and it is shown not only to African women, but also to those whose curls are weakened, the scalp is very sensitive, and also to those who often dye their hair, use a hairdryer and all kinds of curling irons daily.
For those whose strands are normal, it makes no sense to switch to co-washing, moreover, it is even harmful - there is a risk of “overfeeding” the roots with nutrients, which will lead to excessive oily hair.
The balm should not contain silicone. Read the label carefully, and if there are chemicals whose names end in -ane or -cone (eg cyclopentasiloxane, dimethicone), don't buy them. Co-washing with such a product will only harm and create the effect of dirty hair.
The procedure for washing your hair with a balm is simple: first you should comb well, moisten your hair with warm water and dry it thoroughly with a towel. Then divide into strands, applying a large amount of balm to each along the entire length. Then gently massage the scalp for 15 minutes and rub the strands against each other (if necessary, you can slightly moisten them with water). After that, the balm is thoroughly washed off.
Consider the features of washing your hair with improvised means:
Please note! It makes sense to alternate detergents at hand, because each of them has its own special nutrients.
Here is a list of plants for each type of hair:
And here are the recipes for washing your hair:
Remember! Rinse already almost dried curls with decoctions of plants, so the effect will be better.
Curls and scalp can be severely damaged if sebum, styling products, and dust are not washed off from them in time. All this does not allow her to breathe, slows down the growth of hairs, creates a wonderful environment for the development of bacteria and inflammation. Excessive zeal is also harmful. Frequent washing without the need really spoils the hair.

5.1. Purpose and general rules for head massage
Massage (from fr. massage- “rubbing”) is one of the oldest methods of therapeutic effects. The essence of the massage is that by kneading the skin and subcutaneous tissues, we improve the functioning of the subcutaneous sweat and sebaceous glands, blood vessels, muscles, activate the nerve endings, and increase the tone of the whole organism. Rubbing the bruised part of the body, stroking the face at the moment of fatigue, and even scratching the back of the head, we give ourselves a massage. But, of course, these are only the initial movements - there are detailed schemes for whole body massage with therapeutic, hygienic (cosmetic) and sports purposes. The ability to massage and self-massage is a very useful skill.
Head massage improves blood circulation, strengthens hair roots, softens the scalp, facilitating better penetration of biologically active substances in the therapeutic emulsion. In addition, massage improves the functioning of the sebaceous glands, preventing the appearance of seboric phenomena.
First, let's list a few general rules
. Do not rub the skin superficially, but press it against the bone, and only after that move it with circular or direct movements, as if probing, kneading and rubbing, feeling the bone all the time. Massage begins with light, stroking movements - the scalp should be warmed up, washed, as it were. Gradually, the effect of the fingers intensifies, and at the end of the massage it weakens again, ending with light, gentle touches. The first massage sessions should be shorter, and the effect should be lighter - so the body will gradually get used to this procedure. Rhythm is of great importance during massage - the client, obeying the masseur's rhythm, as if already expects the next movement in advance, therefore he feels comfortable, relaxed. You can not start the massage very energetically and cut it off suddenly. After the massage, you need to rest for 10-15 minutes (even if you are going to move on to washing your hair). It is not recommended to massage the head more than twice a week.
Massage is performed only on clean, damp hair with the obligatory use of therapeutic and prophylactic drugs.
Currently, all companies producing professional perfumery produce a series of hair care products, as well as preparations for their intensive treatment. Special knowledge is required to use these preparations. Therefore, we will get acquainted with the simplest and most affordable drug "Londestral". It is produced by the German company Londa in the form of an emulsion and intensive.
Londestral emulsion is available in a liter package and is intended for the treatment of all types of hair. Londestral-intensive is usually available in 100 g tubes and is designed to treat a specific type of hair.

Having beautiful and healthy hair is not only a natural desire of every person, but also a requirement of modern fashion. The beauty of hair is impossible without careful systematic care. Hair should always be clean and well-groomed.
WASHING HEAD
Hair washing is an important hygiene procedure. All types of hairdressing work, with the exception of hair coloring with dyes containing hydrogen peroxide, are performed on clean, freshly washed hair. Wet hair is more elastic and easily takes on one form or another, stretches strongly and does not break. In addition, shampooing is necessary to remove the oil that the sebaceous glands of the scalp secrete. If you do not wash your hair regularly, then the sweat and fat released, mixing with skin flakes and dirt, will create favorable conditions for pathogenic bacteria that cause skin diseases.
Washing head haunts three goals :
removal of pollution from hair (hygienic);
removal of traces of the previous installation (deformation);
loosening the outer layer of the hair (preparatory).
hygiene goal washing the head - removing dust deposits, as well as fat secreted by the sebaceous glands of the head. Oily hair is difficult to process, since fat, covering the scaly layer of hair with a thin coating, closes the pores and inhibits the penetration of coloring, curling and styling products into the hair. In this case, hair degreasing can be considered not only a hygienic, but also a preparatory operation.
Wet hair is easy to stretch and take on a given shape. This is a physical property of hair. It is this property that underlies deformation target head washing. Often the hair retains traces of previous styling or a certain shape from hats, and therefore, to eliminate such hair defects, you must first wash and comb it.
preparatory goal shampooing consists in softening the outer scaly layer when exposed to detergents, which contribute to their quick and unhindered interaction with other chemicals.
There are also three type of hair wash :
hygienic - using regular shampoo;
medical- with the use of medicinal preparations;
dry- using dry shampoo.
Most often, hygienic washing of the head is performed. As you know, water has cleansing properties. In hygienic washing, shampoo is needed only to increase the effectiveness of its impact. Shampoos contain substances that can cleanse the hair of dirt, grease and styling products. The sebum secreted by the sebaceous glands does not dissolve in water, but under the action of shampoo it turns into tiny droplets and is washed out with water.
How often you wash your hair depends on the condition of your hair and whether your skin is oily or dry. The universal rule: wash your hair as it gets dirty. The existing opinion that frequent washing increases their fat content is incorrect. Very oily hair can be washed every day, but use a mild shampoo that does not dry out (leach) your hair.
temperature and water quality. To get a good result, it is very important to choose the right shampoo and prepare the water.
Depending on the type and content of inorganic compounds, there are soft and hard water . Soft water contains a small amount of inorganic compounds (in particular, calcium salts), so the shampoo lathers very well in it. In hard water, on the contrary, there are a lot of inorganic compounds, so the soapiness of the shampoo decreases. Hard water can be softened by adding baking soda to 1 liter of water (¼ teaspoon of baking soda). Softer water can be obtained by filtering or boiling.
It is a mistake to think that hair is better washed in hot water. The only thing that you will achieve by washing your hair with hot water is increased greasiness and a gray coating on the hair that forms due to curdled shampoo.
The optimum water temperature for washing hair is room temperature. That is, the scalp should feel such water as slightly cool. Favorable temperature for hair washing is 34-39 C.
At the end of the rinse, it will be useful to rinse your hair with cold water to add shine to your hair.
If you have the time and desire to pamper your hair, then wash it with boiled water, and if possible, it is better with distilled water.
Shampoo selection. To keep your hair intact and give it shine, you need to be very careful in choosing a shampoo, especially if you wash your hair frequently. Too strong or incorrectly selected shampoo can damage the hair. Gentle, soft preparations, on the contrary, due to their healing properties, improve the condition of the scalp and eliminate damage to the hair structure. Before choosing a shampoo, you must correctly determine the type of hair.
Hygienic head washing technology
Preparatory work
Before washing the hair, the master must do the following:
prepare the workplace, be sure to wash the sink;
invite the client to the chair;
conduct a preliminary conversation;
wash hands and disinfect tools;
carefully comb the hair in order to detect the presence of diseases, as well as to determine the type of hair and their condition;
cover the client with hairdressing underwear (they use two towels and a napkin, while one towel is placed on the shoulders, and the hair is wiped with the second);
pour the required amount of shampoo into a measuring cup;
adjust the water temperature (the optimum temperature for washing hair is 37-40 ° C).
The hairdresser uses two washing method hair: with head tilt forward And head tilted back. When washing hair with the head tilted forward, it is necessary to offer the client a sterile napkin to protect the face. When using the second method with the head tilted back, a special sink with a notch is used. The recess in the sink makes it possible to press the client's neck tightly against it so that water and hair products do not get on clothes.
Wash sequence
Moisten hair thoroughly with water.
Pour the required amount of shampoo into the palm of your hand for more convenient distribution on the hair, as well as for warming.
Distribute the shampoo evenly on the hair, starting from the roots.
Lather the shampoo on the hair in a circular motion, while the fingertips should move from the marginal hairline to the highest point of the head.
Rinse the shampoo and then apply a second time (hygienic hair washing is performed twice).
Final works
At the final stage of washing your head, you must:
conduct a neutralization reaction on the hair (application of drugs to improve the structure of the hair);
wipe the hair with light wetting movements;
comb your hair, starting from the ends;
offer additional services (drying, styling, haircut, etc.);
take off hairdresser's underwear.
HAIR DRYING
Hair drying is an obligatory final operation in almost all types of customer service, especially in women's halls. The need for drying arises sometimes during a particular hair treatment operation. However, the main purpose of drying is to fix that shape. Which was given to hair when wet.
As mentioned above, wet hair is very vulnerable and easily damaged. Therefore, you need to handle them delicately, that is, do not rub against each other with force and in no case immediately comb them.
If you do not want to damage your hair, then after rinsing, you need to gently pat it dry and wrap it in a clean towel. When the water from the hair is absorbed into the towel, it must be removed and gently, avoiding vigorous movements, wipe the hair along the entire length, moving from the roots to the tips. Then the hair must be carefully divided into strands with your fingers and wait until they dry.
Important! If you still need to comb your hair, then use a wooden or horn comb with sparse rounded teeth. At the same time comb your hair very gently and carefully. If nodules form, they should not be torn apart with a comb, but carefully untangled with your fingers.
It is not recommended to dry your hair with a hair dryer every time after washing. Hairdryer, of course - the invention is necessary and useful. But, nevertheless, it is also harmful. Hot air dries out the hair and damages its structure, causing the hair to become brittle. Therefore, it is better to dry your hair naturally. If there is no time for this, then try to minimize the harm caused by blow-drying. Namely: never dry completely wet hair - wait a bit until they dry themselves; use the "cold" drying mode; do not bring the hair dryer closer than 30 cm to the hair.
Never go to bed with a wet head. During the night, the skin cools, normal blood circulation is disturbed: the hair begins to experience a lack of oxygen and nutrients necessary for their growth and development.
Wet hair is very plastic (pliable) and quite easily takes the form given to it with the help of styling and curling tools. When dried, their elasticity is restored, and the hair is able to maintain the shape given to them in the wet state for a long time.
Hair drying in a hairdressing salon can be done with the help of special devices - dryers. At the same time, to give the hair the desired shape and volume, they are pre-wound on curlers.
Sushuary- Appliances for quick hair drying. They come in several varieties. According to the method of attachment, dryers can be both stationary and mobile. Stationary dryers are mounted on the wall. Mobile ones are convenient because they can be moved to any place in the cabin with the help of a tripod on wheels. The presence of such functions as a regulator of the temperature of the supplied air or a timer, by which it is easy to follow the drying time, is very convenient and is indispensable in large beauty salons. The power of the air supply is also very important: dryers are both single-speed and speed-controlled.
The quality of hair styling depends on how the hair is dried. On under-dried hair, the hairstyle will not last long, as they have not fully restored their elasticity. With strong overdrying, the hair loses its shine, becomes brittle, and the hairstyle also does not last long. Therefore, you need to limit yourself to such a drying time, during which all the moisture applied to them has time to evaporate.
Determining the right time to dry your hair is very difficult. Therefore, firstly, one should take into account the hygroscopicity of the hair, i.e. their ability to absorb a certain amount of moisture. The more hygroscopic the hair, the more water it absorbs and therefore takes longer to dry. Drying time also depends on the length of the hair. Hair 12 - 15 cm long can be dried, depending on their properties, in 10 - 25 minutes. Drying hair with a length of 30 cm or more requires much more time - 30 - 40 minutes.
Such a difference in drying time of hair of different density, length and properties is very significant. Therefore, it is important for the hairdresser to be able to determine the required minimum drying time for given hair with an accuracy of 5 minutes in order to avoid over-drying or under-drying the hair. In the latter case, the hair is simply dried. When overdrying, irreparable damage is done to the hair - they become brittle, lose their shine.
Before seating the client under the sushuar. It is necessary to adjust the temperature using the thermostat (50-60 C) and set the timer to the minimum number of minutes required to dry the hair of this group. After the set time has elapsed, they make a control check of the quality of drying by unwinding two or three curls. If the hair is slightly damp, you can increase the drying time by 5-10 minutes. Immediately after drying, the curlers should not be untwisted. It takes some time to keep them wound up so that they cool down. This is necessary because heated hair does not have sufficient elasticity due to the action of elevated temperature. The horny layer of the hair softens from heating, as a result of which the curls can unwind half even under the influence of their own weight.
HAIR COMBING
Combing is a mandatory procedure for all types of hair treatment, without exception, even completely dissimilar. Combing allows you to perform the following important tasks:
eliminate tangled areas of hair;
ensure that the hair is parallel to each other, which is very important when winding it on curlers or bobbins;
give the hair the right direction;
determine the length of the hair of each or individual sections of the scalp;
Combing hair is also useful in hygienic terms. In the process of combing, as a result of scalp massage, blood flow to the hair roots increases, which has a beneficial effect on their vital activity. There is a uniform distribution of sebum along the entire length of the hair.
Combing hair is advisable to start from the ends, gradually moving up. If the hair is very tangled, it is necessary to divide it into thin strands and, holding it with your left hand, comb it very carefully with a comb with sparse teeth.
For combing short hair, you can not divide into sections. In this case, combing is done with light short movements, holding the scalp of the combed section of hair with your hand. Only after making sure that there are no tangled areas of hair, they begin to comb the entire scalp.
The movements of the hairdresser should be light, neat, unhurried. Particular attention should be paid to combing wet, dyed or bleached hair, as well as hair that has been systematically permed.
Be careful when choosing a comb. Good combs are made from natural materials or high quality plastics. It is best if they are of medium hardness, flexible and durable. The surface of the comb should be smooth without nicks, and the teeth should not be too sharp.
HEAD MASSAGE
Massage of the scalp stimulates blood circulation and metabolism, improves the nutrition of the hair roots, enhances hair growth, normalizes the activity of the sebaceous glands, makes the scalp soft and supple. Thanks to the massage, the effect of medicinal preparations is enhanced (the drug is applied to clean and damp hair, then the head is massaged).

Preparations for improving the structure of the hair after shampooing.
There are two groups of hair care products after washing:
Washable funds;
Indelible means.
Group flushable funds for hair care after washing includes all types of rinses or conditioners, starting with liquid milk, conditioners, creams for combing hair with various consistencies and ending with liquid gels and masks. The main purpose of such products is to compensate for the adverse effects on the hair and give them properties such as ease of combing, elasticity, shine and softness.
The principle of operation of conditioners, conditioners and balms is the same: the special regenerating substances (ceramides and proteins) included in their composition replace the natural “glue”. As a result, the tousled scales fall into place and form a single smooth surface.
The difference between conditioners and rinses from balms is only in the amount of these regenerating substances. There are fewer of them in conditioners, so they can only protect the hair from the effects of the external environment. Conditioners (liquid and cream) are used to make hair easier to comb and give it shine. They make hair more manageable, help to style it even without styling products. Also, conditioners give hair shine, maintain the color of dyed hair, and protect them from the harmful effects of the environment.
The conditioner “closes” the scales, but does not nourish the hair, but, as it were, envelops them with a protective film. This is important for hair that is often blow-dried and treated with other heating tools. Another function of the air conditioner is to remove static electricity. Conditioners and conditioners are applied to wet, freshly washed strands and left, as a rule, for 1-2 minutes, after which they are thoroughly washed off with warm water.
Balms are more active. They allow not only to protect, but also to restore, “repair” the damage in the hair structure, take care of the scalp. That is why they are rubbed into the skin or applied first to the roots, and then distributed along the entire length of the hair. The exposure time is usually quite long - 10-15 minutes, but there are also fast-acting products (manufacturers know how little free time modern women have).
Nowadays, industrialists often combine these two products and offer us conditioners that perform more than just a protective function. They nourish, moisturize, strengthen the hair, stimulate its growth, improve the structure, remove static electricity, allow you to increase the volume, help to cope with tangled curls, give a healthy shine, splendor, elasticity, elasticity. Hair becomes obedient and easy to comb. There are special products for the care of dyed and highlighted hair - they treat them after exposure to paint and help to keep the color longer. The same applies to products that support permed hair.
Hair masks are one of the most popular means of intensive restoration of the hair structure. Most often, nourishing and moisturizing masks are used; masks for colored hair and hair after a perm. The mask is used no more than once a week. It is applied to washed, damp hair for 30-35 minutes, after which it is thoroughly washed off. The mask can be applied for a shorter period - for 3-5 minutes. In this case, it works like a balm. The composition of the masks can be anything, but you should pay attention to the following ingredients. Aloe vera is a great moisturizer for all hair types. Chamomile, mint, eucalyptus soothe, relieve irritation - for sensitive scalp. Rice protein restores the structure of severely damaged hair.
Leave-Ins for hair care after washing are represented by lotions, mousses, conditioning creams and cosmetic hair serums. Light in consistency, these products create a film on wet hair; give shine, volume, remove static electricity, maintain the shape of the hairstyle.
Having beautiful and healthy hair is not only a natural desire of every person, but also a requirement of modern fashion. Hair can be thick or thin, fine or bouncy, wavy or straight. But they must be clean and well maintained. To achieve this, the correct execution of shampooing helps.
Hair washing is used in hairdressing salons for almost any service. If you do not wash your hair regularly, then the sweat and fat released are mixed with skin scales and dirt, creating a fertile ground for pathogenic bacteria, which can lead to various skin diseases. All types of hairdressing work, with the exception of hair coloring with dyes containing hydrogen peroxide, are performed on clean, freshly washed hair. Wet hair is more elastic, easily acquires one form or another, stretches strongly and does not break.
Shampooing has three purposes:
hygiene goal washing the head - removing dust deposits, as well as fat secreted by the sebaceous glands of the head. Oily hair is difficult to process, since fat, covering the scaly layer of hair with a thin coating, closes the pores and inhibits the penetration of coloring, curling and styling products into the hair. In this case, hair degreasing can be considered not only a hygienic, but also a preparatory operation.
Wet hair is easy to stretch and take on a given shape. This is a physical property of hair. It is this property that underlies deformation target head washing. Often the hair retains traces of previous styling or a certain shape from hats, and therefore, to eliminate such defects, the hair must first be washed and combed.
preparatory goal shampooing consists in softening the outer scaly layer of the hair when exposed to detergents, which contribute to their quick and unhindered interaction with other chemicals.
Hair washing in hairdressing salons can be done in two ways - with the head tilted forward and with the head tilted back. In modern salons and hairdressing salons, the second method is used more often.
When washing with head tilt forward no special equipment is required - the client tilts his head over the sink. The head is washed with shampoo, choosing for this purpose the most suitable for this type of hair.
When using the second method with head tilt back a special sink with a notch is used. The recess in the sink allows the client's neck to be pressed tightly against it so that water or hair treatment compositions do not get on clothing.
Depending on the type and amount of inorganic compounds, water is soft and hard. Soft water contains a small amount of inorganic compounds (in particular, calcium salts), so the shampoo lathers very well in it. There are many inorganic compounds in hard water, so the amount of shampoo foam is reduced. Hard water can be softened by adding baking soda to it. Favorable temperature for shampooing is 34 - 39°C.
Shampoo selection. When choosing a shampoo, it is necessary to correctly determine the type of hair. For many years, soap has been the main cleansing ingredient in shampoos. But it had a number of disadvantages, such as poor foaming in hard water and the formation of a dull coating on the hair. As a result, instead of soap in shampoos, surfactants began to be used, which give abundant foam in water of any hardness and are easily removed when rinsing, without leaving a dull coating on the hair.
The search for new hair care products that has continued over the past decade has led to a significant improvement in their quality. The main purpose of shampoos is to remove impurities from the hair and scalp. It should be noted that most modern shampoos contain certain conditioning additives.
Modern developments of new shampoos take into account the fact that hair is washed much more often today than a few years ago; this stimulates the development of mild shampoos with a pH close to that of the scalp and hair (5.5 - 6.0).
By appointment, there are several types of shampoos:
Shampoo technology. Before washing the head, it is necessary to prepare materials for washing and hairdressing linen, wash hands, invite the client to the chair. The client is covered with a towel, tightly wrapped around his neck, after which his hair is carefully combed. Combing hair before washing ensures a more even distribution of detergents over the entire surface of the hair and scalp and makes it easier to comb hair after washing. Also, in the process of combing, the type of hair and their condition are determined, which allows you to more accurately select the right preparations for washing your hair. Hair swollen from water and detergents loses approximately half of its strength to mechanical stress. Therefore, such hair requires more careful handling. It is especially important to remember this when treating naturally weak hair, as it can be easily damaged after washing. Hair that is well combed before washing is easy to comb after this procedure.
After the hair has been combed, the client is invited to the sink. To prevent water from getting on clothes, the visitor should press his neck tightly against the cutout of the sink. The hair is thoroughly moistened with water, after which shampoo is applied. It should be borne in mind that cold shampoo causes discomfort, so it is better to apply detergent to the hair from the palm of your hand.
When applying detergent to the head, it should be evenly distributed over the entire head with a light circular rubbing with the pads of the fingers, trying to cover with the fingers at the same time as large an area of the scalp as possible. With the appearance of soap foam, the hair is rinsed with water, and the soaping operation is repeated if necessary. If your hair is heavily soiled, you can use a deep cleansing shampoo.
Foam is removed from the hair by rinsing thoroughly with water. For one washing operation in the women's room, 20-25 ml of shampoo is required, in the men's room - 8-10 ml.
Further processing of the hair depends on what operation will follow the washing of the head and what kind of detergent was used in this case. If the hair has been chemically attacked, then for better combing of the hair it is necessary to apply a small amount of therapeutic balm. The shine of hair depends on the condition of their outer scaly layer. The tighter the scales are pressed together, the better the hair shines. When using the balm, the outer layer of the hair is thickened, unevenness is smoothed out, which further facilitates combing and does not lead to mechanical injuries of the hair. The frequency of shampooing depends on the condition of the hair and whether the scalp is oily or dry.
Washing your hair is necessary to remove the oil that the sebaceous glands of the scalp secrete. If you do not wash your hair regularly, then the sweat and oil released are mixed with skin scales and dirt, creating a fertile ground for pathogenic bacteria, which leads to skin diseases.
Hygienic washing hair is done before all kinds of work hairdresser, except for hair coloring with dyes of the 1st and 2nd groups (contain hydrogen peroxide). Wet hair more elastic and easily acquire one form or another, strongly stretched And not torn.
Hygienic washing is done in 2 ways:
When washing hair with head tilt back(there must be a special sink with a notch);
When washing hair with head tilt forward.
There are 3 types of washing:
- hygienic- washing hair with shampoo or liquid soap;
- medical- washing hair with the use of medicinal preparations;
- dry- hair is washed with dry shampoo, produced in aerosols (flour, starch), or with alcohol (on a comb with cotton wool).
Hair washing is performed for the following purposes:
- hygienic washing- removal of pollution from the hair, fat - secreted by the sebaceous glands (since fat covers the scaly layer of hair with a thin coating, closes the pores and inhibits the penetration of dyeing, curling and styling products into the hair), hair degreasing can be considered not only hygienic, but also preparatory operation;
- deformation washing- removal of traces of previous styling or a certain shape from hats, and therefore, to eliminate such defects, the hair must first be washed and combed;
- preparatory wash- loosening of the outer scaly layer of hair when exposed to detergents, which contribute to their quick and unhindered interaction with other chemicals.
Hygienic washing with shampoo: the most common type of washing. Water has a cleansing property, and shampoo is only necessary for its effectiveness. The shampoo contains substances that can cleanse the hair of dirt, grease and styling products.
The sebum secreted by the sebaceous glands does not dissolve in water. But under the influence of shampoo, the fat is folded into tiny droplets. For a good result after shampooing It is very important to choose the right shampoo and prepare the water.
1) Water treatment: Depending on the type and amount of inorganic compounds, water is soft and hard.
In soft water contains a small amount of inorganic compounds, therefore it lathers the shampoo very well..
In hard water, on the contrary, there are many inorganic compounds, therefore the soapiness of the shampoo is reduced. Hard water can be softened by adding borax or soda to it.
Favorable temperature for shampooing is 34 - 39 o C.
2) Choice of shampoo: When choosing a shampoo, it is necessary to correctly determine the type of hair.
Soap has been the main cleansing ingredient in shampoos for many years. But it had a number of disadvantages, such as poor foaming in hard water and the formation of a dull coating on the hair. As a result, instead of soap in shampoos, surfactants began to be used, which give abundant foam in water of any hardness and are easily removed when rinsing, without leaving a dull coating on the hair.
