Hair cycling is all about variety. With each wash, you alternate the products in your hair care routine, with the aim of making your hair as healthy as possible. Instead of using the same product at every wash, spread out your use and give your hair a chance to rest. By varying hair care products, different hair problems can be remedied, such as dryness, dandruff or oily hair. At the same time, the overall health and vitality of your hair is promoted. It is important to mention that hair cycling has nothing to do with the natural cycle of hair growth, although some people may confuse this.
Hair growth treatments versus hair care
It is important to distinguish between hair growth-stimulating products and regular hair care. With hair growth-stimulating products, consistent use is critical. The first results become visible after about three months, which is why we recommend using the same hair growth-stimulating products for a longer period of time. However, hair care products can be alternated, as they do not otherwise directly affect hair growth.

Alternation in hair care is essential for an effective hair cycling routine. You can alternate different hair care products, such as shampoo for cleansing your hair and scalp, conditioner for nourishing and detangling hair, hair masks for deep hydration, oils for the scalp, leave-in conditioners and various styling products. A typical hair cycling routine is all about flexibility and adaptability, observing the condition of your hair and scalp with each wash and choosing the products that best suit it. With this approach, you maximise the health and vitality of your hair with each wash.
What can a hair cycling routine look like?
We understand that it can be difficult to find the right products for your hair cycling routine. That's why we'd like to help you get started with some hair care products we recommend. Read below to see what your weekly hair cycling routine could look like.
Wash day 1: cleanse hair and scalp
Healthy hair starts with a clean scalp. During your first wash day, therefore, focus on cleaning your hair and scalp. You do this as follows:
Wash your hair with the Neofollics exfoliating shampoo that cleans your scalp thoroughly. Specially designed to address scalp problems, this shampoo provides a deep clean.
The Exfoliating Scalp Therapy Shampoo is clinically proven to bring relief due to its high concentration of active ingredients.
The shampoo is suitable for both men and women.

Always wash your hair twice with shampoo. The first wash removes residue from your styling products, while the second ensures that your hair is clean.
Chances are that your hair is now dehydrated due to the cleansing ingredients. Therefore, after your shampoo, use the 'Klorane nourishing mask for dry hair Mango'. This mask restores hair structure and offers long-lasting shine to dry hair.
To prevent your hair from becoming dry, focus on hydration the next wash day. For example, with the products below: Wash your hair with a nourishing, gentle shampoo, such as the Abyssian deep hydration shampoo. This gentle shampoo cleanses your scalp without stripping away its natural moisture. Wash your hair twice with this shampoo, so you do remove all the dirt properly and cleanse your scalp.
Then use a conditioner tailored to your hair type. For dry hair, choose the Abyssian deep hydration conditioner. This conditioner repairs hair breakage and retains moisture.
Refinish your wash day with a leave-in conditioner to maintain hydration and style your hair with gel, mousse, or hairspray of your choice, such as Klorane's volumising dry shampoo.
Simple, ecological and volumizing solution for fine hair
Gently cleanses, adds texture and volume between washes

How well you take care of your hair, it always has to deal with outside influences. Styling, brushing, UV rays: all can damage your hair. To keep your hair healthy, you need to repair it in between. You do this as follows:
Start your wash day with a shampoo of your choice. Tune it to what your hair needs, such as the Beaver keratin shampoo for thicker and fuller hair. The shampoo improves the overall condition of the scalp and strengthens hair. Again, wash your hair twice.
Use another conditioner of your choice afterwards, such as the Beaver keratin conditioner, as a nice complement to the shampoo. This is a conditioner that nourishes and thickens hair.
Follow up your hair care with the application of a bond builder, such as the Nia Fix hair mask. This revolutionary two-step treatment helps repair and transform damaged/treated hair.
