Increased levels of humidity during the monsoon makes it difficult to manage our precious tresses

Increased levels of humidity during the monsoon makes it difficult to manage our precious tresses. Problems such as frizzy hair, dandruff and hairfall become more common as we, expect the monsoons to be here soon enough.

Almost of all us have experienced hairfall clogging our washroom drains, or clumps of hair shedding off while combing.

Dilip Kundlia, director, Oshea Herbals shares a few tips on tackling monsoon hair worries:

• Use the right comb to untangle your hair - wide toothed combs which are less static.

• To avoid breakage, comb your hair at the bottom and then start combing up to the roots.

• Make sure your hair is fully wet before you apply shampoo and use warm water while shampooing.

• Like your skin, your hair also needs hydration. Drink plenty of water.

• Eat a balanced protein-rich diet, along with plenty of fruits and vegetables.

• Condition your hair and leave it on for few minutes for deep conditioning effects.

For Frizzy Hair: Some of us might face frizziness during monsoons, cream based shampoos and conditioners are perfect solutions for this type of texture. Frizzy hair is an outcome of raised cuticle. Use a mild shampoo and a light weight leave in conditioner to lock moisture. Use hair masks for Dry and frizzy hair to get that extra moisture to last good 1-2 months.

For dull hair

You can oil your hair once in 15 days in monsoons. Leave it on for 1 hour and then shampoo and condition. Treat your hair to enriched with protein spas once a month to lock in moisture level and close the cuticles.

For flat hair

Use volume boost shampoos and conditioners to give your hair that extra volume look. This is a common problem during monsoons for oily or thin hair.

For oily hair/scalp

Use a lightweight shampoo and conditioner, preferably gel-based products that do not leave your hair feeling oily or sticky. Wash your hair regularly to get rid of excess oil and dirt. Oily hair tends to become limp during monsoons and required shampoo that will give volume to the hair.

To treat hair-fall
