Lather, rinse, repeat” is the shampooing method we’ve mostly stuck with all these years. While that technique works, it’s what we do next that is secretly wreaking havoc on our hair.
Using a traditional towel to dry our soaking strands is the worst
thing ever. The coarse texture and dryness of a cotton or terry cloth
towel can cause damage to the hair, according to celebrity hairstylist
and author Monae Everett.
The hair shaft can be
roughed up during the drying process when you wring out your hair or
squeeze it too hard with a towel. “This can worsen split ends and cause
small craters along the hair shaft, weakening the hair,” says Everett.
“Noticeable signs of damage are dry hair and frizz. Frizz is a major
indicator of damaged, dry hair in need of moisture.”
If you’ve been making this
hair mistake like us, there’s no need to panic. Everett believes you can
repair this damage by making a few changes to your hair-washing routine.
