We’ve Been Washing Our Hair Wrong Our Entire Lives

But, you don’t have to overhaul your routine to try this trick at home. Just take your normal shampoo and conditioner and reverse the order. However, if you hair is thick or coarse, you may benefit from a condition-shampoo-condition regimen, says Nina.

There are however, some best practices to keep in mind if you’re going to start this regime. While we’d typically only use our conditioners from our ears down post shampoo, Nina says to saturate all your hair (from root to tip) if you’re planning on taking on the trend.

You will be cleansing it after, so your hair won’t be weighed down or oily.

If you typically lather up twice, she says to scrub the conditioner into your hair like a shampoo instead.

Extra hydration is never a bad thing, especially as we stare the cold, wintery months in the face. So, instead of trying to find a miracle formula this season, why not try changing up your roster order. It’s got to be worth a try!
