Hair Care in the Summer and Monsoons

Posted on by

Every summer, your hair will grow limp. Most likely, it’ll become ultra-frizzy or the colors in your hair will start to turn brassy. Don’t worry; you’re facing the same problems that most people encounter during summer. Thankfully, there are a number of products available in the market that can help you combat summer hair complaint.

Here’s how you can fix hair in the summer:

1. Humidity can affect hair in a bad way in the summer making your hair wilt. Apply some serum to towel dried hair. This will add volume and also detangle hair.

2. If you don’t have long hair, tie it in a pony tail or a small bun.

3. Color your hair! This pumps up the hair strands and adds volume to your hair.

4. Make sure you take care of your hair depending on the kind of places that you plan to hang out. If you’re heading to the beach, opt for a good salt spray and then tie hair. If you want to add some more body, sprinkle a dry shampoo (or baby powder) at the crown and roots. It soaks up moisture.

Here is how you can keep the frizz out of your hair:

1. Moisturize hair with a deep conditioning shampoo once a week.

2. When you wash your hair, let it air dry.

3. To tame the friziness, opt for a smoothing serum which will envelope your hair and control the frizz and make it smoother.

The sun, chlorine and salt water can also wreck havoc on hair color. Here’s how to keep the damage in control:

1. Wear a hat or bandanna in the sun.

2. Before swimming, rinse hair with tap water. This will cut down on salt and chlorine absorption.
While talking about the monsoons and hair care, make sure you have a balanced routine to deal with monsoon hair blues. Here’s how you can keep hair well groomed.

If you get caught under a cloudburst make sure you wash your hair with a shampoo and lightly conditioner when you get back home.

Different kinds of hair react differently to different conditions. Normal to oily hair tends to get greasy during the monsoons, while dry hair tends to frizz. Beat the greasiness by washing your tresses every few days with a daily use or mild shampoo.

To combat frizziness you can wash and condition your hair as always and then follow up with some gentle blow drying and end with some anti-frizz serum.

Avoid using hair styling products such as mousse, hair gels and wax. These clump up and become ineffective in contact with moisture laden air. Worse still they can become dust magnets in a storm, working hair into a dry, frizzy, tangled mess.

Essentials for At-Home Hair Trimming – Professional Hair Shears

Posted on by

We have all been there, your bangs are getting long and scraggily and your split ends are getting out of control. Or your son keeps bumping into the furniture because his hair is hanging too far into his eyes. Ideally, you would take yourself and your son to a professional hair dresser to fix these problems, but you keep putting it off until the problem can no longer be ignored. It is at this point that you decide to take matters into your own hands and trim up all the heads of hair in your household. To take on such a task, there are a few essential tools you will need.

  1. Water bottle: When hair is dry, it is hard to get it all in the same place to snip cleanly. By wetting down the area that needs to be trimmed, the hair will be matted down and easier to see the line you wish to cut or trim.
  2. Professional hair scissors: Your grandma may have used the same scissors to cut fabric and your dad’s hair, but that is not the case now. Investing in a quality pair of hair scissors will come in handy when your mane has grown out of control and just needs a few quick snips to bring it back into shape. Make sure your hair scissors are sharp and kept in a safe place away from water and other contaminants. You can find professional hair scissors at a variety of prices and in drug stores as well as professional hair product stores.
  3. Fine-toothed comb: To gather the hair into one area, in a smooth formation, a fine-toothed comb will do the trick. Combs with wider gaps between the teeth will not provide as smooth of a surface in which to snip. Fine tooth combs also range in price and can be found at drugstores as well as professional hair product stores.
  4. Mirror: This may seem like a no brainer, but always cut hair in front of a large mirror, such as the mirror in your bathroom. Never try to free hand hair without a mirror.
  5. Non-carpeted area: A non-carpeted area will be easier to sweep excess hair from, rather than dragging out your vacuum cleaner after you have finished. Even after you have vacuumed, fine pieces of hair will cling to your rug, so it is best to cut hair on linoleum, tiled or hardwood floors.
  6. Cape or towel with clip: Like they do at the hair salon, you will want to cover yourself or your subject with a cape or a towel to keep pieces of fine hair from getting down your back an into your clothes.

There are many other products which are helpful to do-it-yourself hair cutting or trimming, but using the essentials of water bottle, hair scissors, a fine-toothed comb, mirror, a non-carpeted area and a cape/towel, your hair cutting experience will be on its way to successful.
