你真的會洗頭發(fā)？五招正確洗發(fā)

Wonder if you are washing your hair the right way? Washing hair isn’t a hard process – you just wet, shampoo, rinse your hair, apply conditioner or hair mask and then again rinse, and that’s it. Nothing complicated, but washing your hair properly can seriously make a difference. Here’s the ultimate hair washing guide to follow:

想知道如何正確地清洗頭發(fā)嗎?洗發(fā)本身并沒什么難的——你只需打濕頭發(fā)、抹上洗發(fā)水、沖洗干凈、再使用護發(fā)素或發(fā)膜、最后洗凈即可。但是，有了合適的方法確實會讓你事半功倍。以下就為你列出清洗頭發(fā)的終極指南：

1. Begin with a hot rinse

1. 先用熱水沖洗

You probably know the rule – don’t wash your hair with hot water. Well, it’s true, partially. I always thought that hot water is absolutely bad for my hair health until I met a beauty expert who shared the secret of hot rinse with me. When you wet your hair with a hot water (but not very hot, of course!), it helps to open up the pores and the cuticle, and remove any dirt more effectively. This, in turn, helps your conditioner or hair mask absorb better.

你也許聽說過這么個法則——不要用熱水洗頭。我只能說，這句話部分正確。從前，我也一直認為熱水絕對會損傷發(fā)質(zhì)，直到我遇到一位美容專家，他給我分享了沖洗頭發(fā)的秘訣。當你用熱水打濕頭發(fā)的時候(當然啦，肯定不能太燙)，你的毛孔和角質(zhì)層會被打開，有助于更有效地洗去污垢，進而幫助護發(fā)素或發(fā)膜更好地吸收。

2. Wash the scalp

2. 清洗頭皮

The popular way to apply shampoo is all over the hair and scalp. This popular way is actually a wrong way. Apply your shampoo to the scalp only, massage it gently and rinse it with warm water. If your hair is too dirty and oily, then after you apply your shampoo to your scalp, lather it in your hands and gently move it over the strands. There’s no need to shampoo your hair twice or use a lot of product.

用洗發(fā)水最常見的方法是將其覆蓋所有的頭發(fā)和整個頭皮，而事實上，這是錯的。正確的做法是：把洗發(fā)水僅僅用在頭皮上，輕輕按摩，接著用溫水洗凈。如果頭發(fā)過臟或過油的話，在用洗發(fā)水洗完頭皮之后，把洗發(fā)水在手上揉搓起泡，沿著發(fā)絲向下涂抹。用兩遍洗發(fā)水或是用太多都是沒有必要的。

Although most shampoo brand’s instructions recommend us to shampoo hair twice before using a conditioner or a hair mask, I think it’s just a trick to make us use the product faster and spend money on a new one. Handful of shampoo is enough to wash a very dirty or greasy hair, so don’t overdo it. Over-shampooing strips away the natural oils from the scalp and causes dryness, dandruff and irritation.

雖然在大多數(shù)品牌洗發(fā)水的產(chǎn)品使用說明上，都推薦我們用兩遍洗發(fā)水后再使用護發(fā)素或者發(fā)膜，但我認為這只不過是誘導我們更快地用完他們的產(chǎn)品，然后再趕緊買新的。掌心大小的洗發(fā)水就足夠洗凈非常臟而油膩的頭發(fā)了，所以不必過度地清洗。過度清洗會帶走頭皮中自帶的油脂而導致頭發(fā)過干，還會導致頭屑和靜電。

3. Don’t apply your conditioner to the scalp

3. 護發(fā)素不要接觸頭皮

Whether you have oily or dry hair, never apply your hair conditioner to the scalp. Not only do you waste the product, you make your hair look greasy, which means you’ll want to wash your hair again the next day. As you probably know, washing your hair each day is bad for your hair health, so use your conditioner from the mid-length to the tips and rinse it with warm water.

不論你是油性或干性發(fā)質(zhì)，都不要讓護發(fā)素接觸頭皮。這樣不僅浪費了你的護發(fā)素，還會使頭發(fā)看起來很油膩。這樣一來，第二天你就又想洗頭了。你也許已經(jīng)知道，每天洗頭是會損傷發(fā)質(zhì)的，所以正確做法是在從頭發(fā)的中部到發(fā)尾部分使用護發(fā)素，最后用溫水洗凈。

4. Add shine to your locks with a cold rinse

4. 用冷水沖洗，提亮秀發(fā)

This step is for the bravest women, probably. Really, I couldn’t imagine rinsing my hair with cold water. Once I tried, I saw the difference, and now I always finish my hair washing with a cold rinse to add luster to my locks. I can’t rinse my hair with a very cold water (maybe because I prefer hot showers over cold ones) but a slightly cold water works well for me. Give a cold rinse a try and let me know how it works for you.

這一步也許是為勇敢的女性們準備的。說實話，我起先根本不敢想象自己用冷水沖洗頭發(fā)。而當我試過一次以后，就發(fā)現(xiàn)發(fā)質(zhì)大有改觀，現(xiàn)在我一直在最后用冷水沖洗以提亮秀發(fā)。我受不了用太冷的水(也許是因為我更喜歡洗熱水澡吧)，但是略微有點冷的水對我來說就有很好的效果。試一下冷水沖洗吧，然后告訴我這有多有效。

5. Use your conditioner first

5. 先使用護發(fā)素

This rule isn’t for every woman. If you have trouble washing your hair or you have a very long hair, try conditioning your hair before using your regular shampoo. This way, you prevent any hair damage and wash your long hair faster. If you don’t have conditioner, you can use a small amount of your hair mask – just don’t leave it for 20 minutes.

這一條并不適用于所有女性。如果你洗起頭來有困難或者頭發(fā)特別長，可以試試在用洗發(fā)水前先抹一遍護發(fā)素。這樣可以防止對頭發(fā)的損傷，也會使洗頭這個過程更快。如果沒有護發(fā)素的話，也可以用少許發(fā)膜，只要別讓它在頭發(fā)上停留二十分鐘就行了。

I know, it sounds complicated, but once you turn this hair washing guide into a habit, you won’t notice how you make your hair healthy and shiny. So, ladies, let’s be honest, which of you do wash your hair the right way? Do you find these hints helpful? Share your thoughts in the comments section.
