Take Cold Showers
Many people associate cold showers with dry hair, as hot showers have a habit of opening your pores and softening your hair. While it’s true that warm water can help soften the hair and help you shave, there is such a thing as potentially scalding your hair. If you’re used to hot showers, you might damage your hair without knowing it. Dry hair has many different causes, with hot water being one of the more surprising — especially for those who believe that hot water is better for hair than cold water. That said, cold water has some potential health benefits for your hair. For example, while cold water might not soften your hair, it can help encourage overall growth. It can also help your hair develop more sebum, the oil that gives the hair its youthful sheen. It can also help revitalize your hair and keep it from developing dry hair for longer.
If you want the best possible route when washing your hair, start with warm (not hot) water to help open pores and soften the hair and skin. Then, once you’ve applied your shampoo, you can start rinsing with colder temperatures to help revitalize the hair.
