Hair care tips in Monsoon:

Rinse your hair after getting home:

If ever you get caught in heavy rain fall, wind storm, or even mild rain shower, the first thing you should do after reaching home and changing clothes is to wash your hair with mild shampoo. Apply some lemon juice to your scalp and smoothly rub it and after few minutes rinse it out. Lemon is full of vitamin C and bleaching property; hence works amazingly for cleaning up toxic chemicals.

Cover your hair:

No one wants frizzy hair. With scarf or cap cover up your hair while exposing to wind storm. Thus, you can protect your hair from dust and dirt. You can also use umbrella or raincoat to prevent your hair from getting wet in rain.

Massage with hot oil :

I have heard that warm oil massage stimulates hair growth. Science is also saying that for proper hair growth it requires a particular temperature. Oils act as a protection layer for your hair and inhibits direct infuse of toxic chemical to your scalp.

Healthy diet :

Diet is something that affects from inside your body and serves direct nourishment to your hair. Try to include apple cider vinegar, Greek yogurt, nuts like protein rich food, seasonal fruits, carrot, green leaves, good fat like butter, ghee, coconut oil, olive oil, and avocado in your daily diet. And most importantly, have at least 4 liters of water a day. If normal water is hard for you to consume, then go for detox flavoured water, coconut water, or even in form of green tea.

Hair mask in a week:

Apply any easy to make hair mask once in a week time. You can go for banana, neem, egg, yogurt or onion hair pack for better result. Even try out apple cider vinegar to rinse your hair for silky and shiny hair. You can apply homemade coconut milk to your scalp to keep it hydrated and moist.

Regular combing:

It’s not a trick but a routine habit to comb your hair. Combing facilitates good blood circulation and so stimulates hair growth. Combing keeps your hair frizz free and tangled free. It is best to comb your hair after a hot oil massage to allow the oil seep through evenly and gently to hair roots.
