Shampoo is to wash the dirt from your hair and scalp away while Conditioners work to give that soft feel on your hair and a fresh scent.Use the shampoo first then use the conditioner.If you happen to purchase a Leave-In Conditioner,then you should apply that after your shower.Hope this helps;)

You should always use a separate shampoo and conditioner. They work way better seperate then mixed together. Shampoo washes your hair, while conditioner softens and detangles it, it makes it smoother and helps to combat the damage done by washing and drying it and useing products like hairspray.

Shampoos Clean your hair. Conditioners moisturize and help to detangle your hair. conditioners should be used AFTER you have cleaned your hair with the shampoo and rinsed it out. then put a quarter sized dollop of conditioner in your hand and work it through your hair from front of scalp to the ends. (adding a small splash of water to the top of your head helps) then let it stay in your hair for a minute or so then rinse it out. your hair should be easier to brush (less tangles). and feel a bit softer and/or appear shinier. a lot of conditioners help with specific things, like dry hair, color treated hair etc.

Hello.raiikoshy,shampoo is a little bit acidic in nature,when you just finish rubbing your head with the shampoo,there will be a lot of bubbles on your head,the pH value of your hair will still be in a low value even you wash the shampoo away,in order to maintain a neutral ph Value of your hair,conditioner which is alkaline in nature is used to mainatain the health of the hair. You should only use the conditioner after using shampoos and wash the shampoo is washed away with water.

Shampoo washes dirt and human hair oil out of the hair. Conditioner makes the hair easier to comb/brush out, and restores shine, body and pH balance to the hair. If you only have shampoo, shampoo your hair first and rinse thoroughly and after rinsing apply a conditioner on it. An idea of mixing it? Well i dont ever try to do that so far.

i think shampoos clean our hair while conditioners moisturize.. dirt from pollution wont easy be cleaned by conditioner alone.

It always tells you on the bottle how to use it. So read the direction and follow exactly what it said to get a good result.
