How Many Times Do You Lather...

[angelbaby]

I wash my hair daily so I only lather once.

 

[karmelsassy]

I lather twice both when I shampoo and co-wash. I use Surge (2x a day) and Olive oil on my hair so I like to make sure I it's clean.

...when you shampoo and when you conditioner wash. I remember when going to stylists they would lather with shampoo 3 times before conditioning. I used to do this but now I just lather once. I'm not sure how many times to lather with conditioner for conditioner washes.

I lather once w/ shampoo. If my hair still feels heavy, I lather twice. For COW, I rinse fully and massage my scalp with warm water and COW once and detangle.

I wash once a week and I lather twice

 

[SerenityBreeze]

I lather up twice. On the second time round I only lather the crown of my head and try to reach the scalp only to get a good cleaning & scalp stimulation. I wash 2X a week.

 

[Nanyanika]

I only lather once/twice with diluted shampoo

 

[WaterChylde]

I lather once. My hair feels weird to me when it's squeaky clean.

 

[SUPER SWEET]

Atleast 2x

basically its only needed for you to lather once because all shampoo is meant to do is to clean the roots...if you were to go about leaving hair "dirty" for a longer period of time (like a week to two weeks) then a bit of extra shampoo can be used for the strands..

but its only really supposed to be used to cleanse the roots..

Poo once wk. Usually lather only once unless I've used gel during the week. Then I might lather twice...

 

[LiLi]

I lather only once because I wash almost everyday. Also I clarify (Redken Hair Cleansing Cream) once a week and I let it sit on my hair for 5-10 minutes and that takes off any buildup from previous washing/conditioning during the week.

I like to lather at least 2 times until my hair is full of suds. That's how I know that my hair is clean and I don't have to worry about any build up.

 

[Cinnabuns]

I lather up twice then add my favorite con.

 

[kombov_dymond]

With shampoo, once. Conditioners, once. And when COing, only once. Too many lathers strip my hair.

 

[Diane71]

I deep condition my ends first for about a half hour then I shampoo my hair 2 x's in the shower before braiding it up.

 

[karezone]

Depends I technically twice. Once with cheap shampoo to remove build up and then with CON to add moisture and detangle. When I was washing twice a week, I only lathered once.

If I have a lot of build up or am clarifying, I will lather 2-3 times with the cheap shampoo.

loose naps - once
now that i'm locing - twice

 

[Ayeshia]

I lather once...I use Elucence. All you need is a dime size amount and it gives you suds galore

Conditoner...I use a lot...and then I rinse and apply more as a leave in.

 

[Nightingale]

I lather once with shampoo after applying it in sections ( new growth is So thick) once a month or even less frequently. Once when cowashing too.

 

[shawniegee]

I lather about three times. I like the majority of my tangles to be gone before I condition.
