Hair care in summers

July 4, 2008

Sunlight can be as damaging as a hot blow dryer. Scorching sun not just causes your skin to sweat in summers but also your scalp. The sunlight makes the hair to stick together in clumps, making it look like hay. It damages your hair cuticles, excessive exposure of hair in sunlight results in dryness, split or frizzy ends. Thus it becomes extremely important to beat this heat in order to protect your hair from dying out.

It would be wise if you use shampoos and conditioners which offer your hair UV protection and also gentle to your scalp.

Hair scalp sweats when exposed to sunlight, so it is important that you shampoo your hair at least 3-4 times in a week and later wash it with Luke warm water. Mind it, washing hair with hot water strips away the moisture and proteins from your hair leaving them look dry and fragile.
