First you need to wash your hair with shampoo, then apply a small amount of balm, stepping back from the hair roots by 10 cm, leavefor a few minutes, then rinse well with water at a comfortable temperature. Now you need to apply the shampoo again, but only on the scalp.
Don't worry that the balm will wash off, because all the necessary substances have already managed to penetrate deep into each hair. Repeated use of the shampoo will wash off the balm that may have accidentally got on the scalp. Only in this case, the cosmetic product will not clog pores and make curls heavier. The strands will become obedient during styling, voluminous and flowing.
