Introduction
A simple question, but it makes a lot of difference in the result:
Do I apply oil to wet or dry hair?
People sometimes put the oil immediately after the shower and then complain of heaviness or dandruff, or put it on very dry hair and then it becomes difficult to distribute.
In this article, we explain when it is best to have wet hair and when it is dry, depending on your goal: ends split ends Heishan?
The general rule
✅ For oil before washing (Pre-poo): The best is often on Dry or semi-dry hair
✅ For light hydration after washing (on the ends only): The best on Slightly damp hair And in a very small amount
❌ On the scalp after the shower (wet hair): It often causes buildup in many people, especially oily scalp or dandruff
1) oil before washing: wet or dry?
The best: dry or semi-dry hair
Because:
- The oil is better distributed on the hair without “skating” with water
- Gives protection to the ends before shampooing
- Reduces tangling and brittleness during washing
Correct method (before washing)
- Department of hair
- Apply oil to the scalp (if your goal is a scalp)
- Apply a light amount to the ends (if your target is pounding/hissing)
- Leave it according to the type of undercoat
- Wash off with a gentle shampoo

- Avoid roots completely
3) What about the scalp Wet or dry?
Best for the scalp: before washing and on dry hair
