I know it wasn't just me that went overboard during the holiday season and ate half my weight in ham, potatoes, cake and hot cocoa (with no regrets of course...)
But! As 2019 slowly settles in majority of us are setting our personal goals and leaning towards a healthier lifestyle. Aside from your typical new years resolution list of:
- Lose weight
- Eat more healthy
- Be more positive...
Why not add "wash my hair less" to the list? I know this sounds a little crazy to some but I promise you won't regret adding this to your new years goal! Let's get straight into the why and how.
WHY YOU SHOULDN'T WASH YOUR HAIR EVERY DAY
While it seems like an obvious solution to wash greasy and dirty hair, washing it every day will actually strip off the natural oils or sebum that the hair needs in order to stay healthy. Stripping it so often can surprisingly lead to dry and brittle hair.
HOW DOES LESS WASHING RESULT IN HEALTHIER HAIR?
Since we've learned that our hair thrives off of natural oils from the scalp, that is exactly how it keeps it healthy! Ever wondered why your scalp starts to become dry and flaky? Or your overall hair is dry, brittle and not happy? Well try washing your hair less and witness the magic of unwashed hair begin to unfold...
Your first step to achieving this new year goal is to purchase your favorite dry shampoo. Not everyone's oil production will be the same so here at Zennkai, we have an amazing selection to choose from. From pigmented dry shampoo's to heavy duty ones and to lightweight refreshers... we've got it all here! Let's take a look at our top 5 loved dry shampoo's!

For peeps with thinning hair ..not keeping scalp clean only washing once or twice can lead to more thinning due to build up at follicles. It’s important not to overdo or just not use these types products like dry shampoo which clog the hair follicles…but everyone’s different…but my hair is now growing and healthier washing every other day!
