The provided reference doesn't describe a "pre-shampoo" product from Head and Shoulders. Head and Shoulders is typically used as a regular shampoo. Here's how you would use a typical anti-dandruff shampoo like Head and Shoulders:
-
Wet Your Hair: Thoroughly wet your hair with warm water. This helps to loosen dirt and oils and allows the shampoo to lather properly.
-
Apply the Shampoo: Pour a generous amount of Head and Shoulders into your hand. The amount needed will vary depending on the length and thickness of your hair.
-
Massage into Scalp: Gently massage the shampoo into your scalp, using your fingertips. Focus on the scalp as this is where dandruff originates. Work the shampoo into a lather.
-
Leave it On (Optional): For best results, leave the shampoo on your scalp for a few minutes (as directed on the product label). This allows the active ingredients to work effectively.
-
Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse your hair and scalp thoroughly with cool or lukewarm water. Ensure all the shampoo is removed.
-
Repeat (If Desired): You can repeat the shampooing process if desired, especially if your hair is particularly dirty or oily.
-
Condition (Optional): Follow with a conditioner if needed, focusing on the ends of your hair to avoid weighing down the scalp.
Important Considerations:
- Frequency: Use Head and Shoulders as directed on the product label, typically 2-3 times per week. Overuse can sometimes lead to dryness.
- Specific Products: Always read and follow the specific instructions on the Head and Shoulders product you are using, as formulations may vary.
- Alternatives to "Pre-Shampoo": If you're looking for a product to use before shampoo, consider a scalp scrub or oil treatment, before using Head and Shoulders as a regular shampoo.
