How to Use Aloe Vera & Vetiver Shampoo:

1. Wet Your Hair: Start by thoroughly wetting your hair with warm water to open up the cuticles and allow for better cleansing.
2. Apply Shampoo: Squeeze an appropriate amount of shampoo into your palm (usually about a quarter-sized amount, depending on your hair length).
3. Lather: Rub your hands together and then apply the shampoo to your scalp. Gently massage it in using your fingertips (not your nails) to create a lather. Focus on the scalp where oil and dirt accumulate.
4. Work Through Hair: Once you’ve massaged your scalp, work the lather through the lengths of your hair.
5. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse your hair thoroughly with cool water. This helps close the cuticles and adds shine.
6. Repeat if Necessary: If your hair is particularly dirty or oily, you can repeat the process for a second wash.
7. Condition: Follow up with a conditioner to nourish and detangle your hair. Look for a conditioner that complements the benefits of aloe vera and vetiver.
8. Dry: Gently towel-dry your hair and avoid rubbing it vigorously. Allow it to air dry or style as usual.
