Monsoon's Hair Drama
The monsoon season in India is beautiful, but it also means increased humidity, leading to more hair fall. The rise in moisture levels can weaken hair follicles.
This section addresses why your hair is shedding more during this time, especially in the lively chaos of Mumbai or Delhi rains.
Gentle Cleansing Rituals
Opt for sulfate-free shampoos to gently cleanse your scalp. Avoid harsh chemicals that can strip your hair of its natural oils. Incorporate regular hair oiling with coconut or amla oil, a time-honored tradition in India, to nourish your roots and reduce breakage.
Conditioning is Key!
Deep conditioning is crucial. Use a rich conditioner after every wash to replenish moisture. Consider a DIY hair mask with ingredients like curd, honey, and egg, inspired by traditional home remedies, for extra nourishment and to reduce frizz during those humid days.
Styling with Caution
Minimize heat styling, such as blow-drying or straightening, as this can further damage your hair. If you must style, use a heat protectant. Embrace loose hairstyles like braids or buns to reduce tension. And yes, let's skip those tight ponytails!
Healthy Diet Matters
What you eat plays a huge role in hair health. Include protein-rich foods, like lentils (dal) and leafy greens, in your diet. Consider a biotin or a multivitamin supplement to strengthen your hair from within, ensuring you have those strong, beautiful tresses!
