Dry hair
Why do we have dry hair
Dry hair or frizzy hair could be mainly due to two reason that either the hair are not able to absorb moisture or they are not able to retain moisture. When the hair are not getting enough hydration it often tries to get it from the air around us ,hence hair tends to get really dry and frizzy during monsoon .
How to manage dry hair
The best way to combat dry hair is hydration so here I am mentioning some of the ways in which you can combat dry hair and say good bye to those frizzy hair.
Apply serums or oils post wash
As we wash our hair the shampoo tends to get rid of all the natural oil which were acting as a protective layer exposing hair cuticle, so applying serums and oil post wash just seals the cuticle providing enough hydration that keep hair together making them feel less frizzy .
Using sulfate free and paraben free shampoo
These two are the biggest enemy to your hair health.I am repeating this again please use a shampoo free from these chemicals as they dry out hair more than anything else .
Sleep in silk and satin pillow cases
If you are someone who wakes up to frizzy hair in the morning than this must be your saviour .
One of the biggest reason for split ends and dry hair is friction which tends to get exaggerated when we sleep in cotton pillow cases but this is not the case with silk and satin pillow cases as the reduces the friction keeping hair less tangled and frizz free in the morning.
Rinsing conditioner with cold water
Let me explain this a bit differently.
As we use steam to open up pores of our skin and use ice to close the pores making skin feel supple,Same goes with our hair,the hair cuticle open up due to steam in the shower looking uneven and frizzy but rinsing our conditioner with cold water closes the cuticle making hair look more even.
Apply conditioner prior to washing your hair
Yes I know that conditioner is supposed to be applied post washing your hair but good chemical free conditioner would also be used as pre hair wash treatment .All you need to do is apply oils to your scalp normally and apply conditioner to your ends, keep this for a while and wash your hair normally and this could be your easy go to thing when you feel your hair is more frizzy .
Ditch Your plastic combs
Everyone of us has read in our science classes that how hair gets static due to plastic comb but that doesn't apply with a wooden combs. Hence use wooden combs because not only it helps to combat frizz, it also helps in hair growth by increasing blood circulation and evenly distributing natural oils .
Use a good hydrating hair mask atleast once a week.
