Co-washing, which is short for conditioner-only washing, is the latest hair care craze that involves trading in your traditional two-step shampoo & conditioner for one cleansing-cream\/conditioner product. These hair cleansers are made with natural essential oils and botanicals that are kinder to hair. Intrigued or still not convinced? Here are four handy things to consider before making the change:<\/p>\n

1. THEY DON\u2019T LATHER<\/strong><\/p>\n

No matter how much you work it in your cleansing conditioner will not lather, so stop trying! Give your arms a break. Don\u2019t panic though, it\u2019s free from hair-stripping detergents, so it\u2019s meant to feel very different to your normal shampoo. This doesn\u2019t mean that you won\u2019t have clean hair when you jump out of the shower in the morning.<\/p>\n

2. THEY DO WASH YOUR HAIR<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve all been completely brainwashed into thinking that if a product doesn\u2019t lather up and then feel squeaky afterwards, then it isn\u2019t clean. Wrong! Using a cleansing-conditioner eliminates product buildup, but doesn\u2019t strip the hair of its natural oils, meaning it discourages oil production. So say goodbye to greasy chip shop roots.<\/p>\n

3. THEY NOURISH AND PROTECT COLOUR<\/strong><\/p>\n

Co-washing is much more moisturising than your favourite shampoo, so it doesn\u2019t dry out your strands and scalp. You\u2019ll hopefully notice less breakage on your ends, colour that lasts longer and hair that\u2019s much more manageable. Brushes won\u2019t get stuck on knots anymore, so you won\u2019t have to spend a chunk of your paycheck on detangling sprays. Hooray, what\u2019s not to like?!<\/p>\n

4. THEY GIVE YOU THAT \u2018SECOND-DAY HAIR\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

You know that fluff that sits on top of your head after you\u2019ve just washed it? Well co-washing cleans, but doesn\u2019t leave you with the frizz typically seen on the first day after washing. Hair almost feels textured, as though you\u2019ve already popped in a styling product. Essentially, hair will be on fleek straight away.<\/p>\n
