Piling product on top of the natural oils that your scalp produces, particularly if it’s in excess, can not only clog the hair follicle but also might lead to irritation, inflammation, itching, and in more severe cases, follicle damage or hair loss. Understandably, reservations about over washing curly hair are common. Curly and Coily hair types are the driest hair types but it’s all about balance. Your scalp needs to stay clean and with the right hair products and hair washing routine, you can absolutely make the most of each shampoo session.
Alternatively, using a cleansing foam can be effective for cleaning your scalp in between wash days and after exercise.
Cleansing foams are also great for protective hair styles like dreadlocs, braids and weaves.
