The change in seasons, indoor heat, outdoor elements, your daily habits and hot hair tools are only some of the culprits that can cause these changes. Luckily, you can just try these DIY desi nuskhe and pamper yourself with a hair care day. But first, watch this video to know why you may have excessive hair fall.
1. Over-Brushing Hair/ Using The Wrong Hair Comb There is a common notion that says brushing your hair 100 times every day helps distribute natural oils from your scalp to the end of the hair and makes it appear shiny. Even teasing the hair too much for creating different hairstyles can cause irreparable damage to your hair. Understand which kind of brush or comb works best for you and stick to it!
2. Brushing Wet Hair Wet hair is more prone to breakage. Therefore, make it a point to never brush your hair when it is wet. Instead, gently comb it with a wide-toothed comb or run your fingers through them to detangle. Don’t use a fine-toothed comb or brush it while the hair is still wet. You must also avoid vigorously rubbing your hair dry with a towel.
3. Using Extreme Heat Blow-drying, straight-ironing, perming and curling your hair requires the use of styling tools that generate extreme heat. This damages the hair follicles.
4. Washing Hair With Hot Water This is yet another common practise – taking a shower in hot water. Hot water when used for rinsing hair can strip it of its essential oils and moisture. It leaves the scalp dehydrated and your hair tends to get frizzy and static post-wash. We would recommend that you use lukewarm water for your hair wash and end it with a cold rinse. Coldwater seals the moisture in your hair and leaves your scalp hydrated.
5. Using Chemical Treatments Chemically treating your hair with hair dyes, hair colours and other products is also one of the leading reasons for hair fall, hair thinning and hair loss. Use natural products for your hair to restore them to its previous glory. Try this 24/7 hair fitness solution from the Red Dot Shop here.
