Oily, greasy, limp hair? Try reverse washing!

Yaz November 8, 2015     3 Comments     Beauty, Hair

Reverse washing for oily hairAbout 6 months ago I was reading an article somewhere online with hair tips. It had lots of ones I already know but one that piqued my interest was reverse washing!

Most people shampoo their hair first then condition it, it’s been engrained in us since we were young. With reverse washing you condition your hair first then shampoo it, hence the reverse bit.

Normally when you condition your hair last it leaves a residue on your scalp and hair no matter how much you think you’ve rinsed it out. If you shampoo after conditioning however it washes away any excess heavy residue meaning your hair won’t be weighed down or get greasy after half a day as it was in my case.
Or have you ever blow-dry your hair and notice it’s greasy again? Well, I think, that’s because you have conditioner left in your hair and the heat just sort of spreads it out.

Since the first time I used the reverse washing technique my hair doesn’t get greasy so quick at all! I easily get longer between washes now and my hair feels just feel less weighed down and is definitely more bouncy. It’s way easier to style too.

So next time your washing your hair try out this technique, nothing to lose. If your hair is very knotty and needs conditioner last try a conditioning spray on towel dried hair and some serum after its dries so you still have that moisture.

Since talking about it on snapchat I’ve had a few people say this is the way they wash their hair all the time now as it makes such a difference.

Try it out and let me know how you get on, hope you love it as much as me 🙂  Yaz xo

Instagram post 2191762419487808903_229265379 Absolute imposter syndrome being at the @primark Christmas event this evening, not gonna lie 🙈, coz I know I’m a small fish with a small following (but may I say very awesome supportive followers and not “hate following”!!! 🙌🏽💕) compared to the big bloggers at these events and also I’m not very naturally glam like the big fashion bloggers....nor am I really a fashion blogger 🙈😂 I’m a just a ma who likes to shop in Penneys like the rest of us😄 And look I do know it’s not all about followers, it’s about engagement and real followers who trust you. I’ve been blogging 9 years now and have people following me that whole time since 2010 which is amazing! Ok off on a tangent now! Goodnight! 🌑 . .

And yes, I’m covering my butt cheek practically hanging out here with a strategically placed hashtag ok?! 🤣 📸 @thebargainbuyer

Instagram post 2189567205180430490_229265379 Found this swivel fridge container yoke (honestly dunno what it’s called but that sounds accurate enough right?!) in @tkmaxxie the other day for €9.99.
.

Isn’t it deadly? I was all excited filling it up and swivelling it today in the kitchen going “wheeeee” so the kids and himself came in to see what I was ooooh and aahhing about. They looked at me like I had 10 heads and said I was a weirdo being so excited about it 🤷🏽‍♀️😂 genuinely think its so handy though, love it! .. Edit: someone on my fb page told me it actually called a “lazy susan” 🙌🏽😂

Picked up this hand and lip care set yesterday at @lloydspharmirl for €12! 
If you have very dry skin the CICAPLAST range by La Roch Posay is so good. My hands and lips get extra dry in winter but this stuff is amazing for healing cracked skin and is so soothing! Deffo pick this up, would even be a lovely stocking filler!
