What's Co-Washing?



**Recommended Conditioner Giovanni
Smooth As Silk



Co-Washing is when you use conditioner instead of shampoo to wash your hair. Cleansing the hair using a basic rinse-out conditioner, this is definitely good if you are without Shampoo. Co-washing avoids harsh results from frequently shampooing your hair, leaving your hair soft and manageable. Now you know I'm an advocate for using natural products so if you do look for a conditioner make sure to look at the ingredients to avoid getting a product that has harmful chemicals such as harmful alcohols which I notice is in many conditioner products. Now I was paranoid "LITERALLY" in seeing Cetyl and Stearyl Alcohol as the ingredients in many conditioners but through research I have found that basically its harmless to our hair.
It does not behave like "Real Alcohol" but helps emulsify the oil and water since thats what conditioners are a mix of in the ingredients. I will post up later next week the harmless alcohols and the harmful ones...but back to Co-washing, so make sure you wet hair thoroughly with warm water add conditioner to each section of your hair working from root to ends, massaging conditioner in hair. Then leave the conditioner in hair for the time indicated on the conditioner instructions. Rinse Well! You can choose to use a leave-in conditioner after co-washing your hair if you like, its up to you.
