These days we have to be our own pampering hero, so here\u2019s how to master a DIY shampoo treatment that feels just like the salon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step One: Get Drenched<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pros are never in a hurry, they take their time with every step for a truly luxe experience. Stand under your shower for a solid minute to get your tresses fully soaked. Work the water into every strand, and try not to run too hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step Two: Use an Amount That Makes <em>Cents<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Different hair textures call for different portions of product. Typically it goes like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Short hair = A nickel-sized glob<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Medium hair = A quarter-sized glob<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long hair = A half dollar sized glob<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can also vary based on hair texture or type of shampoo. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step Three: Spoil the Scalp<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hands down, the most luxurious part of a salon shampoo is the attention paid to your scalp. This isn\u2019t just a vamping step, it\u2019s important for a thorough clean. Spend a good three minutes massaging shampoo into your scalp. Wiggle your fingers in circular motions from your hairline to the nape of your neck. This helps scoop up any gunk, dirt, or oil buildup that\u2019s been hanging out on your noggin. Massaging also helps increase circulation and stimulate hair growth and shine. Plus, it feels oh-so nice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step Four: Don\u2019t Scrunch the Strands<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of a roof. Typically it has shingles layered one over the other, all going one direction. Your hair is the same way. Each strand has three parts to it, and the outermost part is called the cuticle. The cuticle is arranged just like those roof shingles, so it\u2019s important to wash in one direction to avoid breakage or frizz. Swoop shampoo down the shaft of your hair instead of scrunching it all over.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step Five: Rinse and Seal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of cuticles, warm water makes those little shingles open up and let in moisture or nutrients from product. To seal that good stuff in, rinse out your hair with cold water which closes the cuticle. Rinse for a minute to make sure you get all the excess product out and leave only clean hair behind. Some Pros suggest doing the old rinse and repeat, where you do one wash focusing just on your scalp and one dedicated to your strands. The result is super glowy hair that feels salon fresh and ready to roll.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s no denying it, a salon shampoo just hits different.
