Is it okay to wash and blow dry my hair at night?

Washing hair is actually a very common phenomenon. Everyone washes their hair normally, but modern young people are under a lot of pressure. They are busy every day and when they get home, they lie there and don’t want to move. Most people wash their hair at night. It is okay to wash your hair at night, but you must blow your hair dry before going to bed after washing it. If you don’t blow your hair dry before going to bed after washing it, it will affect your health in the long run.

How to wash your hair

Blow dry your hair before going to bed

Many people go to bed before their hair is dry after washing it at night. This is a very bad behavior and will cause many bad situations. It is best to blow dry your hair before going to bed.

Don't comb wet hair

After washing your hair, the hair scales are still open. If you comb your hair too many times at this time, the hair scales will be obviously damaged and the hair will become frizzy after it dries.

Don't pour shampoo directly on your head

It is best to pour shampoo into the palm of your hand, rub it evenly and then wash your hair. Pouring shampoo directly onto the scalp can easily cause chemical residues and is not conducive to foaming, which reduces the cleaning effect.

The water temperature is preferably around 40℃

Washing your hair with cold water is the most irritating to the scalp and may cause hair loss; washing your hair with too hot water can also damage the hair follicles.

It is better to wash your hair less frequently

If your hair is not greasy, you should not wash it every day, because the hair scales will inevitably suffer some damage in the process of opening and closing.

Keep your head slightly lower when washing your hair

Many people stand upright when washing their hair in the shower, and the force of the water may cause more hair to fall out on the top of the head than elsewhere. A better way is to bend down and lower your head to heart level. This can reduce the impact on the hair and improve blood circulation in the head.

Use silicone-free shampoo

If your hair feels greasy and heavy, you can consider using a shampoo that does not contain silicone oil. This type of shampoo has a stronger cleaning ability and will feel more refreshed after washing.

Always dry your hair after washing it

After washing your hair, the hair scales are open, which means they are fragile, and some dust, bacteria and dirt can take advantage of the opportunity to enter. It is best to wipe the hair with a towel until it is 60% to 70% dry first to promote the closure of the hair scales, which will help reduce the damage to the hair caused by frequent use of shampoo.

Precautions for washing your hair

Do enough preparation before washing your hair

To comb out tangled hair, you can start from the ends and comb slowly, then comb from the roots to the ends. You can even turn your head down and comb from the back of your head to the front to make the hair smooth and improve blood circulation, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort when performing cleaning! It can also allow the oil to fully moisturize the hair on the entire scalp and brush away the dead cells and fallen hair on the scalp. This step is very important, especially for people with dry hair. It can stimulate blood circulation and oil secretion, thus making the hair more moisturized.

Wash your hair moderately

In the south or in summer, or when your hair is oily and uncomfortable, you can wash it once a day; in the north or in winter, washing it 2-3 times a week is enough.
