Summer has set in and with it, the blazing sunlight and scorching heat. With weather like that, one thinks twice before stepping out in the sun. Not only this unbearable heat is bad for one’s skin, which, most people do make it a point to care for, but the major part of one’s appearance is hampered because of the hair gone bad.
In summer the excessive heat and dry, polluted air also hamper the hair growth. Here are a few tips that might help you combat the hair problem in summer:
-
Before washing the hair, brush the hair rigorously. This makes the hair stronger and also improves the blood circulation.
-
Wash hair with a mild shampoo thrice a week, taking care to massage the scalp thoroughly and make sure that you rinse thoroughly after each wash.
-
Conditioning is the key in having beautiful, healthy hair, full of vitality. Make sure that you condition your hair after every wash, but concentrate on conditioning the tips of the hair, rather than the scalp.
-
Once in two weeks you could add 100 ml of vinegar to the bucket of water and give your hair one final rinse, this adds shine and luster to the hair.
-
Give yourself a relaxing hot oil massage. Take a tablespoon full of either mustard oil or coconut oil and massage on the roots of your hair. Dip a towel in hot water and wrap the hot towel around your head for thirty minutes. Wash your hair with your regular shampoo and see the difference.
-
Egg yolk is a natural source of protein. It does not only help in hair growth but also makes the hair strong and lustrous. Take two tablespoons of yogurt and one egg yolk. Mix thoroughly till the mixture becomes smooth, if you want, you can also add a dash of lemon in the mixture. Now apply this mixture to the sections of your head and leave for thirty minutes. Make sure that you don’t wash your hair with hot water or the egg will scramble right in your head!
-
Henna popularly known, as mehndi is very good for the hair. Not only does it gives natural highlight but also makes the hair more shiny. Mix two tablespoons of henna and one tablespoon of mustard oil. Add a little bit of water to make a smooth mixture and apply to the head and leave for one hour.
These tips will ensure that your hair stays healthy all day long, but make sure to have a trim every six weeks to avoid split ends. In the summer, it is better to go for a shorter length because of the heat factor. However, if you want to show off your long tresses, then make an investment in scrunches and hair clips. So this summer flaunt your hair and set many a hearts fluttering!
