Monsoon Hair Woes
The monsoon's humidity and moisture can wreak havoc on your hair. Increased frizz, breakage, and, of course, shedding become common concerns. Think of it as nature's
challenge to your hair game. But, fret not! We've got you covered with some simple yet effective tips.
Gentle Cleansing Routine
Switching to a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo is key. Over-washing strips your hair of natural oils, leading to dryness and shedding. Wash your hair 2-3 times a week, or as needed. Consider incorporating a clarifying shampoo once in a while to remove product buildup.
Oil, Oil, Everywhere
Pre-shampoo oiling is your hair's best friend during the monsoon. Opt for warm coconut oil, amla oil, or a blend of nourishing oils. Massage it into your scalp and hair, leave it on for at least an hour, or overnight, and then wash it off. This helps nourish your scalp and strengthen your hair.
Smart Hair Care
Avoid tight hairstyles like braids and ponytails when your hair is wet. Use a wide-toothed comb to detangle gently. Embrace loose hairstyles like buns. Use a microfiber towel to dry your hair to minimize breakage. Eat a balanced diet and stay hydrated for overall hair health.
DIY Hair Masks
Incorporate DIY hair masks for added nourishment. Amla powder mixed with yogurt, or a honey and egg mask can work wonders. Apply the mask, leave it on for 30 minutes, and then rinse. This can help strengthen the hair and reduce hair fall. Remember consistency is key!
