10 Hair Care Tips to Beat the Heat
Summers have begun and heat is rising as April is coming to an end. Summers bring a lot of challenges such as dryness, dehydration, exhaustion, etc. It even takes a toll on your skin health too. But, have you noticed any changes in your hair recently?
Yes, Summers have a great impact on your hair health too. Your hair loses its moisture and sweat makes your scalp sticky and grimy. You may be wondering about these many problems, but what is the solution? I will tell you about a few secret tips and hair care regimes, you must follow to get healthy, shiny locks.
Hair care Routine for healthy hair from roots to tips
1. Refresh, Renew, Cleanse: There is no secret about this step. All of you must know the importance of having a thoroughly cleansed scalp in any weather. But here is the catch! Washing your hair with any cleanser/ shampoo can make them dull and dry. It would be best if you used a mild, hydrating shampoo. We have a solution for that too. Our Omeo Intense Repair Shampoo is a MUST-use item as it has the hydrating and healing properties of Calendula.
2. Nourish, Restore, Condition: The second step is where you condition your locks deeply. Conditioner helps to restore the moisture content of your hair shaft and prevents it from becoming brittle. It helps to balance out the porosity of hair.
Super tip: You can check the porosity of your hair by immersing one strand in a glass of water. If your hair sinks quickly then you have high porosity hair. If it stays somewhere in the middle and sinks slowly then it is balanced. But, if your hair keeps floating over the surface then it has low porosity. Porosity means the capability of hair to absorb moisture content.
You can use Omeo Hydrating Conditioner to moisturize your strands in a balanced way. It is enriched in Arnica, Amla, and Reetha. All of them are natural products loved by your hair.
3. Oil, Revitalize, Shine: There are always mixed opinions about the hair-oiling. Some are in favor of it and others are not so much. I am not here to impose my opinions on you but to give facts.
Hair oiling helps in restoring the oil balance of the scalp. If you are experiencing excess oil in your hair and you believe that you don’t need external oiling. This excess sebum production is your body’s way of telling you that it needs hydration. Excess sebum production can block your follicles. This is another additional problem too. Hair oiling is also required in those who experience dryness of the scalp.
Another benefit of hair oiling is that it coats your hair shaft, providing it with a protective layer. This protects your locks from losing their natural hydration.
Omeo Arnica Hair Oil has the power of 3 oils and vitamin E. It counters hair loss, breakage, and split ends.
After covering the advanced hair routine, let’s focus on other angles of Hair health too.
4. Stay Safe in Shade.
The scorching heat from the SUN can also damage your hair in a significant manner. Always protect your hair from heat by covering it with a hat or scarf when stepping outside.
5. Style without sizzle.
Avoid using hair styling tools regularly. These heating instruments can add to the environmental heat of summer.
6. Gel, swirl, Wow!
Hop on to the trending use of aloe vera for hair. Aloe Vera gel can boost hydration in your mane and make them shinier than ever. Use Omeo Aloe Vera Gel with natural extracts of Aloe Vera leaf without coloring agents.
7. Chug, Chug, Chug!
Keep drinking water to hydrate yourself. Your hair needs hydration not only from the outside but inside too. Your hair, like your body, contains a significant amount of water. Consuming plenty of water helps rejuvenate cells in your body and strengthens your hair follicles by promoting mineral and vitamin resorption.
8. Towel, Tress, and Mess.
It's 2024 and it’s high time that you stop making this mistake once and for all. Avoid drying your hair by rubbing your strands vigorously with a towel. Instead, wrap your hair in a towel to absorb the excess water and then let it air dry. This way you can avoid unnecessary damage to your locks.
9. Pool Perfect Locks.
As summer approaches, we all want to spend our holiday in the pool. But the chlorinated water makes our hair dull and damaged. If you have color-treated hair then it’s going to cause more problems to you. I come bearing solution too.
- Always wash your hair post-swim.
- Wear a swim cap and if not possible then tie your hair back in a ponytail or a bun to reduce contact with chlorinated water.
- Use a mild shampoo. For example Omeo Arnica Shampoo by Omeocare.
- Apply Omeo Arnica hair oil before swimming. It adds a protective layer to your hair and reduces the effect of chlorinated water.
10. Trim, Time, Triumph.
Trimming your hair at frequent intervals is a very necessary step to give your hair a healthy look. Trimming those split ends and frizzy ends can give your hair an entirely new look. It gives them the appearance of healthy hair and promotes growth.
In the scorching heat of summer, our hair deserves just as much care and attention as our skin. By following these 10 hair care tips, you can shield your locks from the harsh effects of the season. From gentle cleansing to protective measures against chlorine and UV rays, each step plays a vital role in maintaining hair health. So, embrace these practices and let your hair shine with vitality and resilience all season long. Here's to a summer filled with beautiful, healthy hair!
