What Happens When You Condition Before You Shampoo?


If you've got fine hair, but need some intense moisture to mend damage, you may want to rethink your lather-rinse-repeat routine. Even just as a joke, we've always wondered exactly what would happen if we were to swap the order of our shampoo and conditioner, but as it turns out, it's a great way to give your strands hydration without causing them to go limp. Conditioner does nourish the hair, but can also weigh it down. So, if you shampoo after you condition, it will whisk away any residue. 
Clean hair is bouncy hair! 
The technique has been dubbed reverse washing, and it's likely to change the way you shower.
Even if you don't have fine hair, it's a great technique to try with your everyday conditioner, not to mention, those heavier masque formulas recommended roughly once a week. By cleansing after, you'll be eliminating any lingering buildup either formula can leave behind. 
Brands like TRESemme are already on board, with a reverse washing system of their own new to the market, though it's a technique you can do with the staples you already have, just be sure to use two moisturizing options that could technically work solo. 

The best part? Reverse washing will actually stretch the lifespan of your style by whisking away the aforementioned excess conditioner, as well as any natural oils that could cause your layers to fall flat. 
Long live the blowout.

In honor of Shiseido's O.G. Rainbow Beauty Powder, which launched in 1917 almost 100 years ago , the beauty giant just dropped a gorgeous, limited-edition set of color-correcting powders, all neatly packaged in small satin cream-colored boxes reminiscent of sweet little  engagement ring  boxes. Sadly, no sparklers were stashed in these mini cases. Like other color correctors on the market, these powders are designed to cover specific issues. So, for example, white, which should be applied to the T-zone, brightens; yellow evens out the complexion all over; beige smooths texture; rose, which should be brushed on the apples of ...

My color story with Schwarzkopf Palette Deluxe Part 1

My color ventures began approximately 12 years ago, I have always chosen between the browns and blondes and blended them together. At times adding a touch of pinks, reds or purple for the added extra effect.    Hair Color is a way of expressing myself, I use it as an accessory to my fashion style.  It's been a long while since I have had dark brown hair or anything close to my natural hair color. So... Here's a few color variations I have had thus far. In the past 10 years my hair has always been light brown or blonde or a combination of the 2. As we can see in the pictures below.
