Women are warned against using a hair product in the shower that causes ‘flat and damaged’ hair

There are countless hair care products on the market, from shampoos and conditioners to hair oils and masks.

Using too many or the wrong type of products can do more harm than good, experts said.


They emphasized the importance of conditioner and warned against applying it to the hair too often.

In fact, the experts at luxury hair extension specialist Roxy Hair have recommended “skipping conditioner”.

This is because it can make hair look greasy or weighed down, making it harder to achieve a voluminous, healthy look.

The experts said: “Conditioners are extremely effective at moisturising your hair, but the product also carries the risk of over-moisturising.

“It is often said that conditioners can make hair look greasy. That’s why more and more people are avoiding these products.”

For many people, using conditioner after washing their hair is part of their basic hair care routine and can be beneficial for some hair types.

However, the expert said it might be worth using regular moisturizing hair masks instead to breathe some life back into dry locks.

If you still want to use conditioner, you should make sure you use it correctly. This means avoiding applying it near the hair roots.

The hair experts continued: “When using conditioner in your hair care routine, it is important not to apply this product directly to the scalp.

“Otherwise, your hair may become flat and damaged. For more volume, it’s best to apply a small amount of conditioner only to the ends of your hair.”

To perfect their hairstyle, people often resort to styling tools that use heat, but this can cause the hair to look “damaged and exceptionally dry.”

The experts explain: “Regular use of heat tools can lead to severe hair breakage, including split ends and a loss of natural moisture, leaving hair looking damaged and exceptionally dry.

“This is why wearing your hair natural is incredibly beneficial.

“Allowing your hair to air dry occasionally allows it to breathe beautifully, reducing the risk of dandruff and hair damage. The less you use heated tools, the healthier your hair will look.”
