5 Simple Ways You Can Help Your Hair During the Rains (Goodbye, Frizz!)

Its the worst time of the year, ladies, well, for your hair at least! While the pitter-patter of raindrops might seem quite romantic at first, a look at your hair in the mirror, and you pretty much kiss those romantic dreams goodbye.
With frizziness and hair fall and all sorts of other problems going on, it’s the perfect time to take extra care of your hair. I give you 5 simple yet effective ways you can work with immediately – so your hair gets all the help it needs! 

1. Lukewarm is the way to go…

Make sure you wash with either cold or lukewarm water. Hot water can add to the frizz. Having your last rinse with hot water dissolves the natural oils on your scalp, causing hair to become dry and frizzy. Bet you didn’t know that!
POPxo Tip: On the other hand, a cool rinse will close up the cuticles and seal in the moisture to each strand.

2. Invest in a good hair mask

POPxo Tip: L’Occitane Repairing Mask is just the thing you need to nourish and restore capillary fibre.

3. Think hydration

In normal conditions, we lose 50-60 strands of hair a day; in the monsoons that goes up to 200. So you gotta be on your guard, always!

4. Sleep on a silk pillowcase

Silk has fibres that don’t snatch your hair in the way that cotton can, and as your head moves smoothly over the pillow because of the fabric, you wake up to healthier hair.

POPxo Tip: Fab Furnish has some great silk pillow covers and at good prices too.

5. Avoid a hairbrush (Yes, it’s true!)
