Shampooing
-is the preliminary step for various hair treatments. The importance of a good 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 preparations for cleaning hair and scalp. 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.

Unless the scalp and hair are cleansed regularly, the accumulation of oil and perspiration which when
mixed with natural scales and dirt offers a breeding place for disease producing bacteria. Permitting this
condition to exist can lead to a scalp disorder.

1. Hair should be shampooed as often as necessary depending on how quickly the scalp and hair
become soiled.
2. As a general rule, oily hair should be shampooed more often than normal hair.

SELECTING THE CORRECT SHAMPOO
