Diet & Hydration
A balanced diet is crucial, especially when it comes to hair. Just like a delicious thali, your hair needs the right nutrients. Poor eating habits often
lead to dry, brittle strands. Remember to drink plenty of water, particularly important in the Indian heat, to keep your hair moisturized from within.
Heat & Styling
Excessive heat styling, like using curlers or straighteners frequently, can cause damage. Imagine repeatedly applying high heat like tawa on chapatis; eventually, the hair will weaken! Reduce heat usage, and always use a heat protectant before styling to minimize damage and keep your hair healthy.
Habits & Treatments
Sleeping habits can surprisingly affect hair health. Avoid brushing wet hair, as this can increase breakage. Harsh chemical treatments like perms and relaxers, similar to experimenting with too many spices in a dish, can weaken the hair's structure. Over-washing, like over-watering plants, can strip natural oils, and damage hair.
Sun, Stress, & Styles
Sun exposure, similar to extended time under a scorching sun during summer can damage hair. High stress levels and hormonal imbalances also play a role. Tight hairstyles, like a tightly braided updo, pull on your hair, leading to breakage. Water hardness, too, can wreak havoc on your locks.
Product & Trims
Using the wrong hair care products, like using the wrong type of oil for your hair type, can be detrimental. Skipping regular trims is like ignoring the need to remove dead ends, this will also lead to breakage. Regular trims are essential for healthy hair growth.
