Check out these effective hair care tips for summer
What's the story
The soaring temperatures and humidity levels during the summer season can damage your hair and lead to hair fall, split ends, and unruly mane.
Instead of just chopping off your hair, you can tweak your hair care routine and choose good quality products to suit the weather and make your hair strong and healthy.
These haircare tips will help you sail through summer smoothly.
Shampoo and conditioner
Use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner
First, detangle your locks before taking a shower to avoid breakage.
Choose a gentle hydrating shampoo to moisturize and nourish your hair strands while keeping the natural oils of the scalp intact.
You can go for a shampoo infused with shikakai, moringa, and onion seed oil.
Next, use a hydrating conditioner and wash off after two minutes to prevent frizz and split ends.
Hair mask
Use a hair mask once a week
Pamper your tresses with a nourishing hair mask once a week to deeply condition the lengths and roots of your mane and make them soft and healthy.
Hair masks will also strengthen your hair and prevent hair loss, frizziness, and dryness.
You can blend ripe bananas, avocado pulp, mint, and honey and apply the mixture to your hair. Wash off after 30-45 minutes.
Perfect comb
Avoid hair brushes and use a wide-tooth comb
Brushing your hair while it is wet can break your strands. It is best you avoid hair brushes as they can destroy the hair cuticles and cause split ends.
Instead, you can opt for wide-tooth combs that are gentle on the hair and do not cause breakage while untangling.
You can even use them on wet hair as they glide through easily.
Shield for hair
Use a hair serum
If you want to protect your hair from the heat and the harsh UV rays, use a hair serum that will act as a shield for your mane and prevent frizz and split ends.
It also adds a nice shine to your hair and makes it appear healthy and lustrous. Apply it on semi-dry hair to help your hair retain moisture.
Replenishes moisture
Oil your hair
It is important to oil your hair a couple of times every week to prevent dehydrated tresses and to strengthen and moisturize your mane.
A good hair oil massage will not only help replenish the moisture but also stimulate blood circulation and provide essential nutrients to your roots.
