Preeti loves her curly hair and enjoys flaunting it in various styles. However, come monsoons and she has to face severe hair loss and unmanageable locks. Preeti tried some hair mousse brands as recommended by some friends however, she still couldn’t get past the hair fall and dry scalp. She wondered if her hair care routine lacked something that was at the root of the problem.

Like Preeti, many women with curly hair face a huge task maintaining their locks in the rainy season. Hair products are probably your best bet at controlling your hair however, an excess of chemicals can prove to be a cause of hair loss eventually. Fact is, it is the small, daily habits that can either worsen or soothe wild hair.Here are some great hair care tips that will sort out your frizzy locks immediately:

  1. Make it a cold one

    The last rinse of your shower should be a cold one. While this can sound discomforting after a warm bath, cold water helps seal cuticles and pores and minimizes frizz. Avoid a very hot setting on the shower.

  2. Go alcohol-free

    When buying hair products, you need to read more than just the expiration date on the package. Alcohol content dries out the natural moisture on your scalp. Choose from the many great alcohol-free hair products available in the market and you will notice a difference.

  3. Friction is no fun

    Be gentle when you dry your hair. Rubbing your locks roughly with a towel will leave you with a messy mane. Gently pat down your hair post a shower and allow it to dry naturally. This will help lock in your scalp’s natural moisture. Never wring wet hair as this can cause breakage.

  4. Moisturise and deep condition

    A hair oil massage is a must before you shampoo. Opt for pure oils like coconut, almond, or olive oil which are free from any artificial perfumes or preservatives. A deep conditioning treatment, once a month, at your local beauty salon will help set your locks right.

  5. Don’t fry it

    Skip the unnecessary treatment from tongs and hair curlers. Shockingly, many women use hair straighteners daily. These devices can fry your delicate hair cuticles and leave you with permanently damaged hair. Save the heat-based hair styling for special occasions. 

  6. Pop into the kitchen

    Some of the best remedies for healthy hair can be found in your fridge. The internet has many recipes for hair masks from bananas, yoghurt, honey, and eggs that will leave you with soft, manageable locks. On the plus side, you’ll save money and go natural with your hair care.

  7. Blow drying is for occasions

    The blow dryer might have saved you on days when you were running late, however using it often is going to damage your hair. If you must use a blow dryer often, buy a diffuser which will help minimize the heat damage to your hair.

  8. Shampoo isn’t a daily chore

    Frizzy hair tends to appear oily at the roots and this might tempt you to shampoo it daily. Few things could worsen the frizz as a daily hair wash. Shampooing daily means you are stripping your pores off their natural moisture. This is one of the main reasons for hair loss in women.

  9. A haircut is in order

    Noticing splits at the end of your curls? It might be time for a trim. Trimming the ends of your hair every 6 to 8 weeks adds new bounce and life to dull hair. A trim will also help define your beautiful curls.

  10. Talk to a professional

    Extreme frizz and a dry scalp might be warning signals that your hair is damaged. If you have exhausted almost every option in controlling your hair, it might be time to speak to a professional. Damaged hair requires timely care just like any other part of your body.
