Rain Game - Skin & Hair Care for Monsoons - Part 2



HAIR CARE

Hair are exposed to sudden showers and are often not completely dried. As a result, dandruff is rampant in this season. Rain water has the tendency to seep into the hair and penetrate into the hair shaft, thus making it weak.

DOs and DON'Ts

  • Just as you massage oil, massage raw milk in your hair. Wash off after an hour.
  • Grandma's advice still holds good. Give your hair a hundred strokes with a brush, before going to bed to increase the blood circulation
  • Heat olive oil and massage into hair, this helps get rid of split-ends.
  • A paste of jaggery, curd and multanni mitti applied on the scalp before shampooing keeps dandruff at bay.


DIET

  • Avoid sugar as it promotes inflammation in skin and scalp.
  • Biotin is very essential for hair care. Intake of tomatoes, leafy sources such as spinach and cabbages; milk products; and walnuts and almonds ensures it.
  • Sprouts and soya proteins are the good options for vegetarians; while non vegetarians can have meat, chicken and eggs.
  • Avoid leaving your hair open in rain.
