When it comes to our hair, there are different details that seem small, but that we should consider. A good example of that is the temperature of the water. Have you ever thought about how it could help or hurt your scalp?

We have, and we’ve thought about it a lot! So today we want to talk to you a little more about it so you can take away some tips to help you in the process of giving your hair some love. Ready to get started? Here we go!

Water temperature and hair

The simple fact of wetting our hair means a lot of things to it and altering it in different ways. What we want to explain to you in this article is how different temperatures can alter its composition.

What happens if I wash my hair with hot water? In theory, nothing happens. However, when you use this temperature on your hair frequently, it is possible to affect our scalp, causing it to become damaged and dry, preventing it from growing healthily.

If you decide to wash your hair with hot water, try to pamper it by using a product that protects your hair structure like our vitamin E serum.

What about cold water – is it better? There is no study that proves that cold water helps our hair more or less, but it is true that it allows it not to dry as much as it could if we wash it with hot water.

The recommended temperature to wash our hair

The most advisable would be to achieve a balance, so we could wash it with lukewarm water, i.e. not too hot, but not too cold either. This temperature allows us to clean our hair without damaging it.

Important: If your hair is oily, washing it with warmer water may help. This is because it cleanses more thoroughly and prevents oil from accumulating on the scalp. Just be careful not to overdo it on the temperature, because if it’s too hot it can strip your hair of its natural oils and dry it out.

As you can see, it’s all about balance and knowing your hair well enough to know what’s best for you. Remember: Every hair is different and the most important thing is that you fill it with love.

Love,

Maka.
