Monsoon is one of the eagerly awaited seasons of the year, as it signals the end of the hot and exhausting summer season. While the monsoon is a welcome respite from the scorching heat, it’s a testing time for your hair.

The season means a lot of humidity, which leads to various hair issues including an oily scalp, frizzy and dull hair, dandruff, and most of all, hair fall. Looking for the right ingredients in your Hair Cleansers and Hair Conditioners can be a savior when controlling these hair problems. It is best advised to use a sulphate free, natural, herbal oil infused, shampoo and conditioner.

To prevent the rains from getting the best of your hair, we’ve curated a list of some Monsoon Haircare Tips from our in house Ayurvedic Doctor:

What are the most common hair issues during monsoon?

Monsoon brings with it not one, many hair care concerns, including frizzy hair, hair fall and dandruff. Read on as we answer how to Address hair fall, dandruff and frizzy hair during Monsoon and decode some solutions to soothe your scalp and protect your hair.

Monsoon Hair Care to Avoid Dandruff

With humidity on the rise, it is important to keep your hair and scalp fresh. Build up of dirt, sweat and grime will only make your hair more prone to dandruff, by clogging your hair follicles. The scalp feels oily and most often than not, also leads to frequent hair fall and frizz. May we suggest washing your hair every alternate day or as and when your scalp feels oily, to keep a check on your scalp’s health. Use natural hair cleansers and conditioners that do not strip your scalp’s natural moisture, like the Amla, Honey & Mulethi Hair Cleanser.

Prevent Hair fall during Monsoon

Our Ayurveda Expert recommends not pulling on your hair while drying them with a towel, to avoid excessive hair fall. Always comb your hair once you have air dried them as combing them wet can increase hair fall. You can also use the Bhringraj & Shikakai Hair Vitalizer for improved scalp health.

Monsoon Hair Care Tips for Frizzy Hair

The most common mistake we make is making the hair static while drying them with a towel. Rubbing the hair against each other and friction caused by the towel leaves them frizzy and with unwanted volume, once air dried.

No, this is not recommended as oiling cools your scalp and keeping it on for more than thirty minutes will make you prone to a cold or activate your sinus.
