Having gorgeous hair is probably the most important beauty-related thing for every woman. We care so much about our hair and want to be informed about the best ways to do it, but sometimes the wrong information comes our way.

Here are top 5 hair-related myths that are very far from true.

Myth #1 – The Foamier the Shampoo, the Cleaner the Hair

This is a common misconception because the logic tells us that more foam will clean our hair better. In fact, the foam is not responsible for cleaning; it’s the surfactants in shampoo that do it.

Myth #2 – You Need to Use ALL the Hair Products to Make It Look Good

Good news – you don’t have to spend your entire paycheck on shampoos, serums, conditioners, masks, oils, and all the other styling products to have your hair look amazing. Excess products can even make your hair dull, so stick to the basics and only add what’s necessary.

Myth #3 – Using the Same Shampoo All the Time Will Make it Less Efficient

Many girls think they need to change their shampoo brand with every purchase to prevent their hair from “getting used to” a certain one. This is not entirely true. There’s no such thing as hair getting used to a shampoo, but different seasons leave our hair with different needs. For example, you probably wash your hair more often in the summer than in the winter, so you need a mild shampoo suitable for daily washing.
