02Cold water
Pros:Sealing moisture Cold water does the exact opposite of what hot water does. It causes the pores and cuticles to gently close thus ensuring moisture remains locked in and prevents frizzy hair. Adding sheen and softness Conditioning with cold water not only makes your hair extremely soft and shiny but also adds a glossy, well-defined texture to your hair.**Cons:**Reduces the volume of hair For those of you with thin and fine hair, a cold water rinse can make your hair fall flat and seem sleek which basically reduces the volume. Cold water may then be an unfavourable option.Apart from what temperature of water you use to wash your hair, it is essential that you give your hair the right kind of nourishment via a great shampoo and conditioner—one that won't sap its moisture and at the same time give it a boost of nutrition that it is in need of. We swear by the Dove Oxygen Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner Range that has Oxyfusion ingredients that breathe life into dull and limp hair to add 95% more bounce and moisturisation too!
