One should then apply little amount of shampoo (in a size of a quarter) onto the palm and rub both the hands together for evenly distributing the rich lathery material.

The next step is to apply shampoos to the scalp with the balls of the fingers gently. The primary objective of shampooing is cleaning the scalp along with hair roots and not wrestles with the hair.
