Emulsifying Conditioner Can Also Save on Water Bills [It's Not Just About Smoothness]
Do you know about emulsifying conditioner? If you are someone who puts effort into hair care, you might already be aware of it.
I have also been emulsifying my conditioner recently, and I have started to think that it might also save on water bills.
In this article, for those who want to save on water bills, I will talk about it from the perspective of emulsifying conditioner and rinsing.
As a premise, I will briefly explain it for those who do not know about emulsifying conditioner.
*Emulsification is a phenomenon where, after applying conditioner to your hair, adding a small amount of water causes them to mix together. This makes it easier for the ingredients to cling to and penetrate the hair. A white cloudiness is the sign of emulsification. It is the same as emulsifying pasta sauce.
The generally cited benefits of emulsification are as follows.
・It becomes easier for ingredients to penetrate
Indeed, I understood this well when using Napla Caretect Treatment.
However, what I will talk about in this article is saving on water bills through the emulsification of conditioner and treatment.
Now, let's begin.
🍁Reasons I felt that emulsifying conditioner saves on water bills
*I felt the same way not only with conditioner but also with treatment.
When you emulsify, conditioner and treatment become easier to rinse off. As a result, the rinsing time is shortened, which leads to savings on water bills.
Conditioner is oil. It is hard to rinse off with water
Conditioner is, so to speak, like oil.
Even if you try to rinse this off with water, it does not wash away easily. It feels slimy, doesn't it?
The image is like rinsing a frying pan used to cook chicken with hot water. Even if most of it washes away, the sliminess remains.
By adding a small amount of water to hair coated with conditioner, a phenomenon called emulsification occurs.Performing this emulsification makes the oils easier to rinse away.
(If you search for 'conditioner emulsification,' you'll find plenty of results, so if you're curious, please give it a try♪)
Therefore, adding a small amount of shower water or bath water to the conditioner causes emulsification, making it easier to rinse out.
(Of course, since it's for hair care, it's packed with technology to make it much easier to rinse than food oils.)
🍁 Emulsifying conditioner also saves time
Since I started using this method, it's become easier because the rinsing time is shortened.
I used to rinse while checking to make sure the conditioner was properly washed out. However, when emulsified, it slides right off, making it incredibly easy to rinse.
Surprisingly, leaving the shower running (even just to rinse hair) consumes a lot of water... (；´Д`A
For children's hair too
I do the same for my 4-year-old daughter's hair.
Since it's a child's hair, it rinses out right away.
Furthermore, perhaps because the conditioner penetrates better, I can feel her hair becoming fluffy just by rinsing it.It's a completely different sensation from the sliminess of conditioner. I'm envious...
🍁 Regarding water bills after emulsifying conditioner
I haven't received the actual water bill yet, so I can't say for sure, but the experience is clearly different.
Personally, I'm convinced it makes a difference.
However, depending on your water billing contract or how other family members use water, it might be offset.
In our house, my husband keeps the water pressure on high, so I feel it's a bit wasteful. (I wonder where on his body he needs that much water pressure... He seems to like a stronger stream.)
🍁 Bonus: Emulsifying conditioner might also help prevent back acne.
It's just a possibility, but one of the causes of back acne is residue from hair care products.
The sliminess of conditioner tends to remain on the back.
However, when you emulsify it, that sliminess on your back becomes easier to rinse off.
As a result, I thought it might also lead to the prevention of back acne.
🍁 In conclusion
I apply this "emulsification" skill in my daily life as well. Please feel free to take a look at my other articles.
There are many things that reach their full potential or become more cost-effective, such as saving time, just by emulsifying them.
I have only discovered about three so far, but I hope you enjoy them (^▽^)/
