]]> 46365 1 25 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/25.jpg Massage your scalp Next, loosen dirt and dead skin by massaging your scalp for a minute. Use the pads of your fingers, not the nails.

]]> 46366 2 34 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/34.jpg Wet your head with warm water Thoroughly wet your hair with warm — not hot — water. Very hot water damages hair shafts, causing fly-away hair.

]]> 46367 3 42 Tip Don’t wash your hair every day; all you’ll get for your trouble are oily roots and brittle ends.

]]> 46368 4 48 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/48.jpg Apply shampoo Pour a quarter-sized amount of shampoo into your hand, rub it between your palms, and then spread it evenly over your scalp. Using more shampoo than that will strip your hair’s natural oils, leading to the frizzies.

]]> 46369 5 60 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/60.jpg Work up a lather Work up a lather for at least a minute.

]]> 46370 6 65 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/65.jpg Rinse thoroughly Rinse thoroughly with warm water.

]]> 46371 7 69 Tip Contrary to what you’ve probably heard, do not rinse hair until it “squeaks,” or you’ll be rinsing away the hair’s natural oils.

]]> 46372 8 75 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/75.jpg Condition your hair Gently squeeze out excess water with a clean towel, then wrap the towel around your head and let it absorb some more water. Hair is at its weakest and most prone to breakage when it’s soaking wet.

]]> 46373 9 88 Tip If you have damaged hair, use a deep conditioner every few weeks, according to directions.

]]> 46374 10 93 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/93.jpg Rinse again Rinse the conditioner with warm water, adding a final blast of cold water to seal the cuticles, which makes hair really shine.

]]> 46375 11 102 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/102.jpg Towel dry your hair Gently squeeze out excess water with a clean towel, then wrap the towel around your head and let it absorb some more water before combing your hair. Hair is at its weakest and most prone to breakage when it’s soaking wet.

]]> 46376 12 112 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/40572/112.jpg Use a detangler Spray on a little detangler or leave-in conditioner before combing your hair.

]]> 46377 13 118 Fact On average, hair grows about half an inch each month.
