Can I wash my hair during menstruation?
Rumor 1: You can't wash your hair during menstruation, which will make the uterus cold.
You can't wash your hair during menstruation since the older generation. At that time, their conditions were poor, and they might catch cold when washing their hair, so let women avoid washing their hair during holidays to ensure their health. But it's a new society now. Washing your hair with hot water during menstruation can not only prevent cancer, but also make your blood smoother! Won't it stink if you don't wash your hair for a week? If cancer doesn't come to you, other bacteria will come to erode your health!
Rumor: during menstruation, it is not that you can't wash your hair, but you can't let your head catch cold. During menstruation, women's resistance drops. If your body catches a cold, your blood will stagnate, which may lead to menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea. Therefore, it is reasonable not to blow your hair and catch cold during menstruation, not to wade in the rain, not to wash your cold feet or take a cold bath, and not to eat cold food. The ancient saying that "you can't wash your hair during menstruation" is conditional. People's living standards were not high at that time. When washing your hair, it is inevitable to blow cold air or wash your hair with cold water, which will indeed lead to damage to women's health and is also one of the causes of cancer. But now people's living standards have improved. Washing your hair with warm water and drying it quickly with a hair dryer can avoid cold and alternating cold and heat.
Myth 2: Shampooing during menstruation will leave dirty blood in the uterus, leading to endocrine disorders and cancer.
Rumor: During menstruation, the cervix will open slightly. Once menstruation occurs, it will enter * * * from the cervix and then be excreted. The uterus of a pregnant woman is about 5ml. How much blood can you "cripple"? Therefore, there is no direct relationship between menstrual shampooing and cancer, as long as washing your hair with warm water has no effect on your health at all.
Rumor 1: you can't take a bath in the second month, and you are prone to catch a cold or infection.
Rumor: In the past, there was no heating and air conditioning, so it was easy for women to sweat more after giving birth, and it was easy for them to catch cold when taking a shower and washing their hair. Now that the living conditions have improved, there is no need to wash your hair and take a shower when you are confined, as long as you don't have to take a shower with cold water and keep warm after washing. It is also good for children's health for lying-in women to take a bath and wash their hair to keep their bodies clean.
Correct method:
1. Wash your hair and take a bath with warm water to avoid catching a cold.
2. It's best to choose a shower instead of a tub bath and a sitz bath.
3. After washing your hair, blow it dry in time, and it is best not to blow it with wind.
Correct shampoo method
Although we wash our hair almost every day on weekdays, do you really wash your hair? Improper shampooing will make hair more oily, and the correct shampooing method will also have a certain health care effect.
Correct shampoo method:
1, comb your hair before washing your hair.
Shampooing is the most taboo. Comb your hair before shampooing. When combing your hair, first comb the messy knotted part of your hair with a comb with sparse teeth, and then comb it from the end of your hair until it can be combed smoothly from the root to the end. Be careful not to comb your hair from the root at the beginning to avoid damage.
Step 2 get your hair wet
Dry cleaning is popular among young people now, but this way of washing hair is not suitable for the elderly. Because chemical shampoo is often used for dry cleaning hair, and the action of scalp when washing hair is easy to open scalp capillaries and absorb chemicals in shampoo. Long-term accumulation is easy to cause cerebral infarction.
Therefore, when washing your hair, you'd better get your hair wet and use the shower nozzle to let the water run down your hair. It is best not to soak your hair completely in the washbasin.
Don't rub your hair hard when washing your hair.
Hair is rarely particularly dirty, so after soaking it, pour a proper amount of shampoo on your hands, rub it out and gently rub it on your head to produce foam. You don't need to rub your hair too hard to avoid damaging your hair scales. When washing, gently straighten your hair with your fingers, and don't twist it into a ball like clothes.
Step 4 use conditioner in moderation
When hair is wet, it has high friction and is easier to rub and tear. Using proper amount of conditioner can effectively avoid this situation.
5. Wash the shampoo and conditioner as clean as possible.
Because shampoo or conditioner contains a little chemical, it must be cleaned when washing your hair to avoid leaving it on your hair and hurting your hair and scalp.
6. Try not to pull when you wipe your hair.
Although hair is elastic when it is wet, it is also the most fragile moment. Therefore, when you blow dry your hair, you should apply two towels. One towel is used to absorb most of the moisture in the hair, and the other is used to dry the hair gently. What needs to be reminded here is that try not to use thick towels.
7. Combing your hair is also important.
Whether you gently rub your scalp with your fingers or comb your hair with a fine comb, you can pull the capillaries in the hair roots and scalp, thus nourishing your hair. In addition, avoid excessive contact with hair in life. Hair has the same composition as bones, teeth and nails. Exposure to the sun for a long time will cause the loss of nutrients in the hair and form a dry and fragile situation. Therefore, we should pay attention to protect our hair and avoid long-term exposure to the sun. If you have to work long hours in the hot sun, please put on your hat.
