How to Use Wen After Coloring

Wen is not a shampoo. Wen is a "cleansing conditioner" that acts as five products in one: shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner, detangler and leave-in conditioner. Wen can be used on any type of hair, including color-treated hair. Although any of the Wen cleansing conditioners may be used, the Fig Cleansing Conditioner is best for thick, coarse, wavy and curly hair as well as dry, heat-damaged, color-treated or dehydrated hair. Does this Spark an idea?

Cleansing

Rinse hair with cool water for two minutes.

Pump six to 12 squirts of the cleansing conditioner into your hands and rub together. Use six pumps for short hair, eight pumps for hair that is down to the shoulders, 10 pumps for hair past the shoulders and 12 pumps for long hair. Apply the cleansing conditioner to the crown of the head.

Apply the cleansing conditioner to the hair, starting at the scalp and working toward the ends.

Work the conditioner into the hair. Add a bit of water and massage for two to three minutes. Be sure to start at the crown and work toward the ends. Use your fingers to push the cleansing conditioner into the hair shafts.

Use a wide-toothed comb to comb the product evenly through the hair. Leave on for a minimum of three to five minutes. The longer you leave it on the better the results.

Rinse with cool water. Use your fingers to massage your scalp for one to two minutes while rinsing. Be sure to run your fingers through to the ends of your hair. Leave your hair soaking wet.

Conditioning

Pump one to three pumps of the cleansing conditioner into your hands and rub together. Apply as a leave-in conditioner. Start from the back of the head and work through to the ends, and then apply from the crown to the hairline.

Apply one to three pumps of Wen styling creme. Start from the back of the head and work through to the ends, and then apply from the crown to the hairline.

Wrap your hair in a towel to absorb moisture. Avoid rubbing your hair with the towel, as this may cause frizz. Remove the towel and style. Allow your hair to dry naturally.

Tips

- Use the cleansing conditioner as an overnight deep-conditioning treatment. Instead of rinsing, cover your hair with a plastic shower cap. The next morning rinse thoroughly.

- Do not use heated styling tools, like flat irons and curling irons, which can dry out and damage your hair.

- Wen may also be used on children and some animals.

Warning

- Although Wen may be used on animals, do not use Tea Tree Cleansing Conditioner on your cat. Tea tree oil is toxic to cats.
