Co-washing, short for "conditioner washing", is a hair care method that just uses conditioner to cleanse the hair instead of traditional shampoo. This method is popular among those with curly or textured hair, as it helps maintain moisture and prevent stripping the hair of its natural oils.
When co-washing, you apply a generous amount of conditioner to wet hair, massage it into the scalp and hair, and then rinse thoroughly. Some people choose to follow up with a leave-in conditioner or styling product.
Co washing hair extensions/wigs is a great way to keep your hair extensions/wigs looking fresh and healthy. Co washing means washing your hair extensions/wigs with a cleansing conditioner instead of shampoo. Here are some benefits of co washing:
- HYDRATION: Shampoo often strips the hair of its natural oils, leaving it dry and brittle. When you co wash, you can keep the natural oils intact and provide your hair with the hydration it needs.
- GENTLE CLEANSING: Cleansing conditioners are designed to gently cleanse the hair without stripping it of its natural oils. This means that you can use co washing as frequently as you like without worrying about damage to your hair extensions.
- IMPROVED TEXTURE: Co washing can help improve the texture of your hair extensions, making them look smoother, shinier, and more manageable.
- PROLONGED LIFESPAN: Co washing can help prolong the lifespan of your hair extensions by reducing the need for harsh shampoos and other damaging hair products.
Overall, co-washing can be a great option for your natural hair or extensions. Don't forget to read the ingredients on the bottle of conditioner.
