Hair Care Tips to be followed during Changing Seasons
Hair care is essential especially during changing seasons. Caring for our hair during the transition season can be a difficult task as the humidity and heat around us is constantly changing. As the weather changes, keep your hair healthy and safe with these hair care tips:
Be gentle on your hair
Mild shampoos or SLS-free shampoos create less lather. Don’t be harsh on your hair while trying to create more lather. Add more water rather than the product to generate lather. Also, make sure you don’t tie your hair when they are wet, as it causes more breakage.
Stop using hot water to shampoo
When washing your hair, prefer warm or cold water over hot water. Hot water can damage your hair. Use warm water for shampooing and after applying the conditioner, rinse it off with cold or room temperature water.
Maintain a healthy diet
Increase water intake and stay hydrated to flush out any toxins and to keep your hair and scalp hydrated. Eat more fruits as they are rich in vitamins and other essential nutrients.
Trim your locks regularly
Excessive dryness can cause split-ends and as much as you care for your hair and keep it healthy, sometimes split ends are just inevitable. Trim your hair regularly to avoid dull ends. This keeps your hair looking healthy.
Protect your hair from UV damage
As summer approaches, sun rays can take a toll on your locks. Exposure to excessive sun can lead to drying out of hair and scalp. Cover your hair with an umbrella, hat, or scarf. A silk scarf reduces friction between hair strands reducing hair breakage.
Oil your hair regularly
If you have a dry scalp, hair oil can combat dryness. Use it as an overnight treatment to strengthen hair roots and nourish the scalp. Hair oil massage boosts blood circulation in the scalp, sending nutrients directly to all the hair roots.
Avoid using too much heat
Minimize the frequency of heat treatment as it can damage hair.
