Hair tip of the day Printed From: HairBoutique.com Category: The HairTalk® Archives Forum Name: Hair Talk Archive Forum Description: All the old Hair Talk Messages...

I try to do everything good for my hair but taking cold or even luke warm showers sounds uncomfortable. Isn't hot water part of the relaxing nature of showers? What do you folks think? Do you wash your hair with hot water or have you found some way to get around doing this? Replies: Posted By: Ally Date Posted: January 12 2000 at 3:59am Could someone please answer this? I try to do what's best for my hair, but I live in New England, and the Victorian house I rent is drafty. I can't imagine washing or even rinsing in cool water--except in the summer.Does this really make a difference (except where color is concerned)?And if hot water is such a bad idea, why do so many salon professionals rinse you with water so hot you need skin grafts afterward? ;)Ally -------------
