Every
hair care routine involves to a certain extent the use of shampoos,
conditioners, moisturizers, deep conditioners, styling products, gels
and a host of other products. Clarifying your hair is simply
stripping your hair of all the product build up to renew it and make
it squeaky clean. Although shampoos are effective in cleaning the
scalp, deep cleansing is possible only when you clarify.
When
to clarify?
The
best answer to this question is provided by your hair itself. Hair
behaves differently for different people and it is when you start
listening to your hair that you know what it needs. Your hair is
looking lifeless even after applying conditioners, pre-poos and
moisturizers? Have your curls stopped to pop out and be bouncy like
before? Clarifying may just be the answer to your problems.
How
to clarify naturally?
Although
there are clarifying shampoos available in the market, it is best to
use natural ingredients that are free from sulfates. Apple cider
vinegar diluted with water is a fantastic clarifying agent that takes
away all the oil and product build up from your hair, making it very
clean.
Remember
that it is natural for the hair to tangle while clarifying because
with everything else you are stripping it of natural oils as well. Do
not attempt to detangle without applying a good conditioner after
getting done with the clarifying process. Always clarify in segments
instead of tackling the whole of your hair at once. It is wise to
keep it manageable from the very beginning.
Benefits
of clarifying
- It removes all the stale build up from your hair and scalp including chemicals from products, pollution and even the natural oils.
- It renews the hair and scalp, making it more absorbent of the nutritional and moisturizing treatments that you pamper it with afterwards. This eliminates the need to keep changing hair products that is otherwise required to make a difference to your hair.
- It is a great hair care routine for people who are exposed to a lot of environmental pollution. It helps to keep the scalp pores clog free and hence receptive to the goodness .
- It is an ideal solution for women who have excessively oily scalps that can lead to hair fall and breakage.
Clarifying
your hair once every month is a good way to start. After that just
follow your hair and it will tell you what it requires.
