Co-Washing Should Replace Shampooing

Now don’t get me wrong. I think co-washing is great and it really benefits those with drier hair types that is often quick to tangle. But under no circumstances should co-washing be a complete substitute for some type of actual shampoo for your hair. I think the majority of us have heard to stay away from sulfates and other ingredients that strip the hair. Shampooing should be concentrated on the scalp, so if you’re worried about drying your hair out, be sure to do a prepoo treatment and then try to stick to lathering the roots only. When too much moisture, dead skin, styling products and bacteria build up on the scalp, it can cause infections and irritations.
