How do i know if the water i am using is too hot to wash my hair, and what does it do to hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Water temperature: I would say if it is too hot to touch, then too hot for your hair! Whatever temperature feels good on the skin, should be okay for the hair basically. Don't wash too frequently or you can dry hair out.
