How to Use "Evan Williams" Preparations for Beautifying the Hair

كيفية استعمال مستحضرات «إيفان وليمز» لتجميل الشعر

Lesson One

The Regular Henna Shampoo "Henna Shampoo" for Dark Hair

If your hair is oily, use the soapless Henna Shampoo "Henna Shampoo"; if your hair is not oily, use the regular Henna Shampoo containing soap.

First comb your hair well, then prepare the shampoo with care. To do so, place half the contents of one box, or all of it (this depends on the amount and thickness of your hair), in a vessel, then add to it gradually a quarter of a liter of hot water, stirring constantly.

After that, wet your hair thoroughly, then apply to it half the shampoo mixture and rub it in with your fingertips until it produces a thick lather; then wash it out with plenty of hot water. After washing, apply the remaining portion of the shampoo and massage it well until the lather reaches every part of the hair; then wait a minute or two, and afterward wash your hair well with lukewarm water until every trace of soap is completely gone.

In districts with hard water, where soap lather does not appear, add a little vinegar to the water you use for rinsing — two or three teaspoons to a quarter liter of hot water..

When the washing is finished, dry the water a little from your hair, then comb it and let it dry in the air.

The regular Henna Shampoo "Henna Shampoo," one of the "Evan Williams" preparations, increases your hair's natural strength and deepens its color without dyeing it a new shade; it also leaves the hair soft, sleek, and glossy, and protects it from the known diseases of the hair..

Lesson Two

The Camomile Shampoo "Camomile Shampoo" for Blonde Hair and for Children

If your hair is oily, use the soapless Camomile Shampoo "Camomile Shampoo"; if your hair is not oily, use the Original Camomile Shampoo "Original Camomile Shampoo," which contains soap..

Comb your hair well before beginning, then prepare the shampoo with care and precision. To do so, place half the contents of one sachet, or all of it (this depends on the amount and thickness of your hair), in a vessel, then add to it gradually a quarter of a liter of hot water, stirring constantly.

After that, wet your hair thoroughly, then apply to it half the shampoo mixture and rub it in with your fingertips until it produces a thick lather; then wash it out with plenty of hot water. After that, apply the remaining portion of the shampoo and massage it well until the lather reaches all parts of the hair; leave it on for a minute or two, then wash it with lukewarm water until every trace of soap is completely gone.

In districts with hard water, where soap lather does not appear, add a little vinegar to the water you use for rinsing — two or three teaspoons to a quarter liter of hot water.

When the washing is finished, dry your hair a little, then comb it and let it dry in the air.

The use of this kind of shampoo is very well suited to children's hair, for it is entirely free of chemical dyes.
