    Hey Rafael,

    Rinsing with warm/hot water will make your hair frizzier, as warm water opens the pores in your hair. Using cold water will close those pores, allowing the moisture from conditioner to stay with the hair follicle. So really, rinse with warm after shampooing, and cold after conditioning. You'll notice quite the difference. Stay well and hope that helps! =)

      I have REALLY oily hair. I've discovered that the warmer water "strips" more of the oils.

          It removes the natural oils from your hair and scalp. No worries about the language thing. There are a few Portuguese-speaking members here if ever necessary. =)
