Should you try it?
Forget the traditional rule of shampooing, rinsing and conditioning your hair. Rules are meant to be bent anyway (NOTE: bent not broken). Try the method of washing your hair the other way round (reverse hair washing) and and see what happens.
What Is Reverse Hair Washing?
In layman’s terms, it’s the process of washing your hair in reverse. You apply your conditioner first, the you shampoo afterwards.
Why Should You Try It?
If your hair is thin, oily and/or prone to product build-up, doing these two steps in reverse may help you to achieve better results with your existing shampoos and conditioners (this includes products that perhaps never worked for you in the traditional way of using them, or even products that once upon a time worked for you, but stopped working for whatever reason).
