SHAMPOOING OF
HAIR
 SHAMPOOING
• Is an important preliminary step for
various hair treatments. The
importance of shampoo should not
be underestimated. The reputation
for good shampooing builds friendly
relationships with the patrons and is
the foundation for future business.
Shampoos, are prepations for cleaning the
hair and scalp.
A shampoo is given both for sanitary
reasons and to obtain better results in
relation to other hair works. The purpose
of a shampoo is to cleanse the hair and
scalp. A shampoo to be effective, must
remove all dirt, oils, cosmetics present and
the skin debris from the scalp and hair
shaft without adversely affecting either the
scalp or hair.
• Hair should be shampooed as often
as necessary depending on how
quickly the scalp and hair become
soiled.
• As a general rule, oily hairs should be
shampooed more often than normal
or dry hair.
SELECTING THE CORRECT SHAMPOO
To make an intelligent choice of
shampoo, the cosmetologist should
know the composition and action of
the shampoo and whether it will do an
effective job. To obtain this
information, carefully read the label
and its shampooing literature.

 HAIR BRUSHING
• Do not brush before giving a
lightening treatment.
• Do not brush before the
application of tint.
• Do not brush before giving a
permanent wave.
• Do not brush if scalp is
irritated.
Brushing stimulates the scalp, helps
remove dust and dirt from hair and
gives added sheen. Stimulation of the
scalp, by brushing, helps to normalize
the oil glands. The hair should receive
thorough brushing whether the scalp
and hair is dry or in oily condition. The
comb should not be used to loosen
scales from the scalp; it should always
be used in disentangling the hair.
To brush the hair, first part it through the center
from front hairline to neck. Now part a section
about a quarter inch from the center parting to
the crown of the head.
Holding this strand of hair in the left hand
between the thumb and fingers, lay the brush
(held in the right hand) with the bristles against
the scalp; sweep the bristles the full length of
the hair, turning the wrist slightly in doing so,
and sweep to the ends of the hair. Repeat three
times. Then part again, a quarter inch from the
first parting and continue until the entire head
has been brushed.
