Does this work?

My cousin told me this is how she washes her hair to make it soft and it works on her but I wanted to see your opinions on this: these are the steps on how she washes her hair for soft hair. 1. Wet hair 2. Condition all hair 3. Rinse 4. Shampoo scalp 5. Rinse 6. Shampoo bottom half of hair 7. Rinse 8. Condition roots: massage well into your head 9. Do a good wash off to get all conditioner out.

Hmm never tried it but you're typically not supposed to condition your roots

In my opinion that's a lot of product and it may strip healthy oils of hair. I would prefer using a good conditioner instead.

That sounds a bit excessive to me. You wash your scalp because you're getting rid of oil and dirt buildup, which doesn't really happen to the lengths of your hair, and you condition the lengths because they need the hydration, your scalp doesn't need to be conditioned because that can make your scalp oily.

I agree with Izel. If you want softer hair the I recommend using a sulfate free shampoo like L'Oreals Ever- Shampoos & Conditioners. And also using a deep conditioner (I also like L'Oreals) Aussie 3 Minute Miracle is also a good one and I don't think its too heavy.

That seems like a waste of product, and may end up stripping your hair of its natural oils. If softness is what you're looking for, just shampoo your scalp and roots, and then condition the rest, letting it sit for a few minutes and then rinsing it all out. You could also try a leave in conditioner.

I just use As I Am Coconut Cowash to get my curly mane to feel soft. Applying conditioner directly on the scalp is going to eventually lead to build up. And having a congested scalp is no fun (dullness, itchy/flaky).

That's excessive. You don't need all those steps I promise. I only shampoo my roots but lather what runs down into the rest a bit. Then I condition from where my layers begin about halfway up and my hair is majorly silky. It's like the only thing about my hair I'm happy with lol it is waaay soft.

Maybe if your hair is especially dry, use a moisturizing mask a couple times a week and make sure your shampoo and conditioner are geared towards your hair concerns:)

No don't do this. Just shampoo all you hair and then rinse and condition the rest of your hair don't condition your roots
