We all love rocking our natural hair, whether it’s curly, wavy, or straight. But the monsoon season can be a real hair-raiser! Humidity, rain, and scalp issues can leave your locks looking less than fabulous. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with quick and easy tips to keep your hair healthy and looking its best all season long.
Keep Your Hair Dry: Wet hair is more prone to damage. When hair is wet, the cuticles (the protective layer of the hair) remain open, allowing external pollutants to affect the hair directly. This makes hair weak and prone to breakage, resulting in a frizzier and unmanageable appearance. Avoid getting your hair wet, and when you do, pat it dry gently with a towel.
Scalp care is key: The monsoon can lead to a buildup of oil, sweat, and bacteria on your scalp. Use a clarifying shampoo to remove impurities and prevent issues like dandruff or itchiness. Establish a weekly oil routine to massage your scalp. This stimulates the scalp and promotes healthy hair growth.
Color with Care: Modern dyes can strip the scalp of its protective hydro-lipid layer, drying it out and disrupting its pH balance. Some of these dyes may even contain ingredients like paraben, SLS, heavy metals, mineral oils, etc. Naturtint, enriched with nature’s finest, gives you vibrant hair color while keeping your scalp and hair healthy and comfortable. Our formula maintains the hydrolipid layer of your scalp, ensuring it stays hydrated and balanced.
Harness the Power of Essential Oils: Essential oils like tea tree, lavender, and rosemary can work wonders for your scalp and hair. They have antimicrobial properties that prevent scalp infections and soothe irritation. These oils provide deep nourishment, helping to tame frizz and smooth hair texture while adding natural shine and luster.
Fight the Frizz: Humidity is the enemy of smooth hair. Combat frizz with leave-in conditioners or anti-frizz serums. These products create a protective barrier around your hair strands, keeping humidity at bay and locking in moisture.
Embrace Natural Ingredients: Products with natural ingredients are generally gentler on your hair and scalp. They are less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions, making them suitable for sensitive scalps. Botanical extracts and proteins strengthen hair strands, reducing brittleness and promoting overall hair health. Look for shampoos, conditioners, and styling products that contain plant-based extracts and oils.
Nourish Your Hair from Within: A healthy diet is essential for healthy hair. Incorporate plenty of protein, vitamins, and minerals into your meals. Foods like salmon, spinach, and nuts are excellent for hair health.
Prevent Color Fade: Avoid overly hot water, prolonged sun exposure, mineral-laden hard water, salt water, and chlorine in pools, as they can cause color fade. Naturtint’s bio-based ingredients work hard to keep your hair's color vibrant while preserving its natural shine and luster. Its quinoa mask with 99% natural ingredients improves color longevity and can be used for multiple applications for better color retention.
By following these tips, you can enjoy beautiful, healthy hair even during the monsoon season. Remember, a little extra care goes a long way!
