If you have been staying for a very long time - where else but - at TikTok, you have probably noticed a new technique, which is supposed to clean the hair from excess products giving it more softness and making it healthier. As you can see below, scissors are used to clean the hair.

At first glance, it seems a safe technique, although experts say it is not advised, especially if not performed by a specialist. Ricky Walters, a beauty salon executive, told Yahoo that this technique in most cases results in shortening and damage to the hair.
This method of cleaning hair is known as "clarifying" and is used after a long time of using products such as spray or serum, which leave residue on the surface. Ordinary shampoos happen not to remove all debris from the hair.
Instead of using scissors, you can use a shampoo that reads "clarifying" and is specifically for this problem. If you have done a hair treatment at the hairdresser, such as a keratin treatment, it is likely that this type of product has also been used. Such shampoos remove from the hair residues and impurities which ordinary shampoo does not remove.
However, even in this case care must be taken in use, as you can not use it as a regular shampoo because it removes from the hair natural oils and other nutrients.
