Cooler Water for the Final Hair Rinse
Finishing a hair wash with cool, not hot, water to keep the scalp comfortable and the hair smoother. A simple habit, not a hair-growth treatment.
A cool finish
Very hot water can leave the scalp tight and the hair rough. Washing with comfortably warm water and finishing with a cooler rinse leaves hair feeling smoother.
Keep hot water off the scalp, rinse out shampoo thoroughly and finish with a cooler pour. This is a simple routine and not a treatment for hair fall.
