Getting drenched in rain during monsoon may seem like a filmy moment. But in reality it is not good for your hair at all. As much as it feels good to be happy while soaking in the raindrops. After that, the hair becoming lifeless, tangled and weak can be equally disturbing. Weather changes like increased humidity, pollution and less sunlight can damage the hair. Let us tell you today in what ways you can protect your hair from getting frizzy, dry and lifeless in monsoon.
Rain water is the enemy of hair
Rain water falling in cities is not considered pure. It brings with it pollution, dust and acidic elements present in the air. Which can spoil the natural pH of your scalp. This can make the hair dry, lifeless and frizzy. Apart from this, the problem of dandruff or itching can also increase.
If your hair gets wet, wash it immediately
If you get wet in the rain, do not let your hair dry. As soon as you reach home, wash your hair with lukewarm and clean water so that pollution and dirt do not get accumulated in the hair. After this, use mild sulfate free shampoo which can clean the hair without taking away its moisture.
Adopt the right methods of conditioning and drying
Do not forget to apply conditioner after shampoo. It seals the upper layer of the hair and maintains moisture. Instead of rubbing the hair vigorously, wipe it gently with a soft towel. As far as possible, let the hair dry naturally. If you are using a hair dryer, use it on cold setting.
Use hair protection products and styling
On rainy days, instead of keeping open hair, make a braid or adopt hairstyles like ponytail. So that the hair gets less tangled and avoids moisture. Use anti-frizz serum or leave-in conditioner which protects the hair from moisture. Deeply clean the hair with clarifying shampoo once a week. So that the layer of sweat, dirt and styling products can be removed..
Change hair care routine according to the season
Avoid washing hair frequently during monsoon. It is considered right to wash hair with mild shampoo two to three times a week during monsoon. Take care of the health of the scalp. If the problem of dandruff itching or hair fall persists, then consult a dermatologist. If needed, apply deep conditioning mask once a week so that the hair remains strong and shiny.
