What do you do if you use too much shampoo?
Too much shampoo – diminishing returns If you’re worried that your shampoo isn’t doing a good enough job at cleaning, it may be time to switch to a deep cleaning shampoo that works.

What happens if you don’t wash shampoo out properly?
Hair washing mistakes tend to be the most obvious when it comes to personal care. Hair that isn’t washed enough, or washed too much, can look stringy or greasy. If any product is left in the hair for too long, or not rinsed out properly, it can cause build-up and even create dandruff-like flakes.
