Winter Hair Care: Mistakes To Avoid

Skipping Hair Wash: You must wash your hair whenever required. We are not asking you to wash your hair every alternate days. When the hair looks dirty and starts becoming oily, it needs a wash. Skipping hair wash just to avoid contact with water is a wrong solution! TRY THESE TIPS TO WASH HAIR DURING WINTERS

Using Too Hot Water: This is another hair mistake a lot of people do during winters. Taking bath with hot water is good as it helps relax the body and also reduces pain. However, the hair tends to become dry and frizzy if washed with hot water. It is because the hair loses its moisture and this creates hair problems. Prefer warm or lukewarm water for hair wash.

Dry Scalp: Winter is a dry season. Not only the skin, but the hair also becomes dry during winters. That is why, you should prevent your scalp and hair from becoming dry. Dry scalp can elad to itchiness and also cause dandruff. So, it is always advised to apply hair oil and massage at least 4 hours before shampoo.

Tying Wet Hair: A lot of women tie their long hair after bathing so as to protect oneself from catching cold in the chilling weather. Most of us don't realise that the cause of hair damage begins during the shower, when you tie your clammy hair as this weakens the thickness of your strands. Trying to tie your hair when it is semi-damp can cause hair to become brittle. It can also lead to baldness, cause dandruff and also damage the hair. Avoid tying wet hair. WHY YOU SHOULD NOT TIE WET HAIR?
