Manel's advice

• The towel

  After washing, the towel is there to absorb water, not to rub.

  Gently press your hair in a soft towel, without rubbing or pulling on the lengths.

• Shampoo starts at the roots

  It is the scalp that gets washed: the lengths simply receive the foam.

  Massage the scalp with your fingertips, then let the foam glide over the lengths, without rubbing them.

• Knots

  Detangle starting at the ends, not the roots.

  Start at the ends and work your way up little by little. Manel helps you choose the tool and the moment that suit your texture.

• Heat

  Dryer, straightener or curling iron: fewer passes, moderate heat.

  Limit the passes, keep the heat moderate and apply a heat protector following its instructions.

• How often to wash

  There is no rule that works for everyone.

  Adapt how often you wash your hair to your scalp, your texture and your daily life.

• The right product

  A hair care product is chosen for your hair, not at random.

  Follow the stated amount, application area and leave-on time.

This routine advice does not replace the specific instructions for the first days after a smoothing treatment: follow the ones Manel gives you.
