We may have been washing our hair wrong all this time!

It turns out we’ve been washing our hair wrong for all these years!

Style website Refinery29 thinks we should take a break from the old rinse, lather, rinse, repeat routine and start 'reverse washing'.

Applying conditioner BEFORE shampoo can have positive effects, including adding more nourishment to hair.

Nina Dimachki, Artistic Director for Kérastase Paris explains:

"Conditioning before you shampoo is great for adding nourishment to fine hair without weighing it down. It also promotes a longer lasting blowdry and primes the hair before cleansing, allowing shampoo to distribute easier and more evenly."

They claim it can have benefits to those of us with hair that tangles or is prone to grease.

Mind blown!
