This is probably because you have fast startup enabled. Its on by default and it stores some data from RAM onto the hard drive when shutting down and then loads it when booting up again.
When you do a restart it dumps all that is loaded in the RAM, that way you starts with a "fresh" boot when restarting in stead of shutting down.
To disable "fast startup" remove checkmark where shown
