New Delhi, May 3 (IANS) With heat, humidity and dust playing spoilsport to the hair during summers, they require that extra dose of nourishment! To help solve the problem, conditioning is important to avoid dull and dry tresses, experts say.
Thirumal Raj, CEO and Founder of Advanced Beauty and Cosmetic Clinic, summed up a few tips stressing the importance of conditioning to avoid dull, dry hair. Besides, drinking lots of water and eating the right food is crucial to promoting hair growth, he points out.
Here are a few tips summed up by Raj:
Deep conditioning: Summer heat can wreak havoc with your hair and can leave it dull and dry. Conditioning becomes imperative in this scenario.
Oil your hair regularly to revitalize dull and dry strands of hair. A little oil on the scalp helps stimulate blood flow and relieves stress.You can also apply some Shea butter on the strands for a lustrous post-wash look. An easy hack for making an effective conditioner at home is rinsing your hair with diluted apple cider.
Eat and drink right: It is advisable to consume healthy foods such as green leafy vegetables, salads and fresh fruits to improve the condition of your hair in the summer. Low water intake in this season can cause dehydration. This will not only damage your skin but will also lead to hair loss and dry scalp. Drink plenty of water and eat the right food to promote hair growth.
Use a scarf: It is essential to cover head with a cotton scarf to protect tresses from the scorching heat. This will also save your hair from dust, pollution and wind.
Trim it or keep it short: To escape from the sweltering heat and humid climate, it is advisable to keep your hair short or trim them. Have your hair trimmed once a month to remove any dry or split ends that may have occurred in the summer. Cutting tresses short means low maintenance, which will keep the hair thicker, too.
