People wash their hair once or twice a day and suddenly a question bells in their mind, “Maybe I shouldn't bother drying my hair." People face this kind of trouble at least once in their lives.
Some people leave their hair to dry by its own because they think that using hair dryer causes hair loss, or sometimes they are just too busy in the morning.
But the question is: is it better to dry your hair or just leave it?
The answer is yes you must dry your hair after washing it.
There was an interesting experiment about the effect of drying the hair on the health of the hair. The result has shown that if the hair has been dried properly, prevents proliferation of pityrosporum(the bacteria that causes seborrheic dermatitis), helping in a healthy scalp.
Now, let's take a look at the thesis about the topic.
What is the seborrheic dermatitis ?
The white flakes that we call 'dandruff(seborrheic dermatitis)' is actually the dead skin cell of the scalp. When the skin cells on our scalp exfoliate in seven to fifteen days, which normally takes twenty-eight days to come off, this is observed in the form of white flakes which is the dandruff. The cause of the seborrheic dermatitis was announced by the P&G research team at the 2002 World Conference on Dermatology. Just like the report on how the secretion of the two types of mutant malassezia eumycetes that lives in the scalp irritates the scalp and cause inflammation of the scalp, excessive proliferation of the malassezia fungi due to stress, pollution, etc. was the cause of the seborrheic dermatitis.
The experiment was performed to discover how the eumycetes, the primary causes of the seborrheic dermatitis ,Four weeks after the experiment it was found that the scalps of the groupA which had heavy seborrheic dermatitis became very clean, and the scalps of the groupB which had minor seborrheic dermatitis has increased.
I saw it with my two own eyes and I told myself that I should really dry my hair properly. So how should I dry my hair while I'm too busy or it takes so long? At least if you are suffering from hair loss or if you have scalp disease, you should put some more care in it.
Finally, I would like to tell you about the proper way to shampoo your hair.
First, before you shampoo, must soak your hair and scalp enough for the body wastes to come off.
Second, make foam with the shampoo by rubbing the hands together, lather on your scalp and massage.
Third, use warm water when you rinse.
Fourth, take your time to rinse off the shampoo to prevent your scalp and hair from getting damaged.
Fifth, use quality vegetable shampoo instead of petrochemical shampoos.
Sixth, do not dry your hair rapidly with hot hair dryer. Use the towel to dry your hair even if it takes long.
How about using a towel and five minutes of cold dry after shampoo tonight?
effect the scalp's health in relation to the dryness of the scalp and hair after shampoo..
The experiment was progressed through the following steps: two persons with heavy seborrheic dermatitis shampooed and dried their hair with cold wind for ten to fifteen minutes, and the other two with minor seborrheic dermatitis also shampooed and dried their hair using only the towel. Then the they went into sleep.
