How To Wash Men's Hair - Shampoo and Conditioner Mistakes Guys Make
About this video
Weston teaches men how to properly wash and dry their hair based on their specific hair type, arguing that correct technique is essential to maximizing the benefits of quality hair products. She covers washing frequency recommendations for different hair types, proper shampooing and conditioning techniques, and the best methods for towel drying and styling preparation.
Key takeaways

- Weston recommends using sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to avoid stripping natural oils and vitamins from hair
- Weston advises washing hair every time styling products like gels, pomades, or clays are used to prevent product buildup and clogged pores
- Weston recommends spending one to two minutes vigorously scrubbing the scalp during shampooing to stimulate blood flow and promote hair health
- Weston suggests gently patting hair dry with a towel rather than rubbing to minimize breakage and frizzing, especially for thinning or curly hair
