WASHING your hair can be time consuming. Which is why it is good to know that you are doing it properly, and not completely wasting the minutes away.

The standard routine most people appear to have is shampooing first, and then that is followed by conditioner, and a rinse.

But one beauty expert has explained exactly how to wash your hair – especially in these cold winter conditions.

Golâb Beauty shared a video of herself washing her hair and it included a three stage process, with one surprising tip.

Firstly, wet the hair completely.

She explains: “I condition my mids to end first. This protects my hair from drying out from the shampoo.”

She then emulsifies the shampoo between her hands.

She adds: “I only shampoo my scalp, any shampoo that gets on my ends slides off because of the conditioner.

“I only wash my ends if I have product build up.”

She then conditions again and leaves for three minutes.

And lastly she rinses off with cold water.

She shared the video on her TikTok page which has 1.3million followers, as she specialises in hair growth.

And some were surprised about the order of washing, with one writing: “Sorry wait…conditioner first?”
