Why Double Shampooing Is a Game Changer for Your Hair

Have you ever washed your hair and felt like it still wasn’t completely clean? Maybe your roots feel oily, your hair looks a little dull, or your styling products seem to build up quickly. That’s where double shampooing comes in! It may sound like an extra step, but shampooing twice can actually help your hair and scalp get cleaner. (And it helps your conditioner and treatments work better!!)

So, Why Shampoo Twice?

Think of the first shampoo as the clean-up round and the second shampoo as the treatment round.

Your hair can collect oil, dry shampoo, styling products, sweat, pollution, and other buildup. The first shampoo helps loosen and remove that buildup. The second shampoo can then actually cleanse the hair and scalp more thoroughly.

First Shampoo: Cleanse & Clarify

We love using Davines SOLU Shampoo for the first round.

SOLU is a clarifying shampoo designed to help remove buildup and impurities from the hair. It's a great first step when your hair needs a deeper cleanse, especially if you use a lot of styling products, dry shampoo, oils, or other leave-in products. Once that buildup is removed, your hair is ready for the next step.

Second Shampoo: Cleanse for Your Hair Type

After your first shampoo, use the shampoo that is best suited to your specific hair needs.

This is where your regular shampoo can really do its job. With the excess buildup removed, the second cleanse allows the shampoo to better reach the hair and scalp. Then comes the fun part: conditioner or your favorite hair treatment!

What Are the Benefits?

Double shampooing can help:

✨ Remove product and oil buildup✨ Give the scalp a more thorough cleanse✨ Help hair feel lighter and fresher✨ Improve the performance of your conditioner or treatment✨ Leave hair feeling cleaner and more refreshed✨ Help restore shine when buildup is making hair look dull

Do You Need to Double Shampoo Every Time?

Not necessarily!

How often you need a clarifying first shampoo depends on your hair, scalp, lifestyle, and how much product you use. Some people may benefit from it regularly, while others may only need a deeper cleanse occasionally. Your stylist can help you determine how often you should incorporate a clarifying shampoo into your routine.

Next time you wash, try the Davines SOLU Shampoo first, followed by the shampoo that's right for your hair. Your clean, fresh, bouncy hair will thank you! ✨
