2. While applying shampoo to your hair, do not apply a lot of pressure. Apply the shampoo gently and rinse with your fingers for only a few minutes. When washing, make sure that the shampoo is completely gone from your hair.
3. Do not comb your hair immediately after you take head bath. First rub your head gently with a towel and wait for at least 5 minutes. Then gently style your hair with a comb that has wider teeth.
