If your shampoo isn't lathering, your hair most likely isn't wet enough! Add water, not more shampoo.

You do NOT have to switch shampoos (some say to change them weekly), you only need to change products if your hair goes through a change like if you perm it or color it.

Wash your hair with warm water! Don't use cold, even if your best bud says it is good for your hair. Shampoos are formulated to work best with warm water.

To eliminate frizz or to define curls use a wave enhancing shampoo like Back to Basics Get Curly Shampoo.

Don't pour shampoo onto your head! Pour it into your hands then work it through your hair.

Dandruff shampoos -- Massage them into your scalp, then leave the suds on for a few minutes before rinsing.

If greasy hair is a problem, use a deep cleansing shampoo like Clairol Herbal Essences Clarifying Shampoo.

Curly hair is often dry, so use a moisturizing shampoo like Neutrogena Clean Shampoo Replenishing.

Before conditioning, squeeze excess water from your hair (please be gentle) soaking wet strands don't absorb conditioner very well.

To strengthen strands try a protein-based conditioner like Pantene Pro-V Daily Treatment Conditioner.

AFTER conditioning rinse those locks with cool water to boost the circulation in your scalp and to increase the shine of your hair.

You'll know conditioner is all washed out when your hair feels slightly slippery.

DON'T pile your hair on top of your head (if it is long), this will only create knots.

DON'T brush wet hair, it can tear your hair, use a comb, more on that in Hair Tips and on part one.

Please be kind to your locks!
