2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner?
Hi! Would like to share about something I learnt sometime ago. Most people might have already known this, but if you're using 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioners, STOP! They're kinda useless and does nothing beneficial to your hair.
Check out an extract from
http://www.york.ac.uk/res/sots/activities/acidtest.htm:
"Things that are neither acidic nor basic are neutral and come in the middle of the pH scale... Knowing whether something is acidic or basic can be very useful. Hair conditioner is slightly alkaline as shampoo tends to be slightly acidic, so any traces of shampoo can be neutralised by the conditioner. What does this tell you about all-in-one shampoo/conditioners?"Actually I read this (the above, about the 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner) in a magazine while I was getting my hair done at Jean Yip Salon. =) Sidetrack: I love my new hairstylist! And his name is Nick. ^^ Really made my hair nice. Though people who have seen me in it have commented that I look a little more mature, but I secretly like it. hahaha. Thank you Nick!
Back on track, it just makes more sense to buy hair products that work in what they specialise in. Personally I like my L'oreal Elseve Pearl Shampoo and Pearl Conditioner. =) They make my hair really nice and soft. But, it still doesn't help take away my split ends. They are like never-ending! I cut them away, and next moment my hair ends split again! BAH!
I think in barely 2 weeks, I've cut up to more than an inch of split ends, and they are still haunting me! Split ends shoooo away please!
