washing thick hair
May 27^th, 2003 at 5:05pm

I have very thick, long hair that is also curly... I feel that when I am waching it, I am not cleansing all of my scalp because of the amount of hair i have, or that I am getting the shampoo over my whole scalp, but not rinsing it all out. I love my thick long hair, but sometimes it can be a real pain!!!!! If somebody could help me out, that would be great!
Thanks Grin

First of all, you might consider diluting your shampoo a bit so that it will rinse out easier. Then use a vinegar/water rinse to make sure the shampoo is completely removed. You can then condition the ends of your hair and rinse with cool/cold water. These steps should ensure all the product has been removed from your hair and leave it soft and shiny.

I read this somewhere else and it works well on my hair. Of course, my hair is not nearly as long as yours, but it may be worth a try. Good luck.

It take a little longer but it gets the job done.
