Winter is coming!
With close to a month and half left for winters, it’s imperative that we buckle up in advance and start taking care of our tresses. Why? Because the coldness and chills in the weather can not only dry out our hair but also make it vulnerable to breakage, split ends, and those white un-adorable flakes of dandruff.
It’s essential to focus on our manes so that they are easy to manage and look beautiful as ever this season! While oiling and enriching your hair with nutrients and herbs is important—you can amp up your hair game by incorporating conditioning and moisturising products in your hair care routine.
Hair care specialist and manager at Plum – Neha Nandakumar emphasises that a healthy haircare routine has some essential steps. She suggests, “Cleansing using a gentle, nourishing shampoo with no parabens does the job really well. It helps in removing dirt, grease and any build-up caused. You should nourish your hair using a conditioner that helps hydrate and provides moisture to the strands. You should always Detangle and Style your hair using a lightweight, non-greasy serum as it helps smoothen hair and gives a clean, finished look”.
We spoke to Neha on the essentials of hair care to help you all have and flaunt smooth, shiny hair this season, read on!
Q. What hair products should we ideally use?
A. Use a gentle shampoo with ingredients like hibiscus and ceramides. Top it up with a conditioner which helps smoothen strands and end your hair care routine with a lightweight vegan serum with ceramides so that your hair has a shiny, glossy look.
Q. What all ingredients should we look out for in the hair care products?
A. While the list is vast, you can begin by incorporating Hibiscus Extract and Coconut Milk in your regime. You can also include skincare ingredients such as ceramides, squalene, and peptides as they also help and work magically on hair. Coconut milk enhances shine while Peptides help strengthen the strands. Similarly, Hibiscus Extract and Ceramides help in getting long and healthy hair. You can also use Avocado which reduces the frizz and Onion Oil which helps with hair growth.
Q. How can one take care of their hair in the changing weather?
A. The use of the right products will always help with maintaining healthy hair. Vegan, clean, cruelty-free and gentle products will help enhance hair health. Additionally, a regime is always recommended. Using products that are a perfect blend of hibiscus extract and ceramides gives the smooth, frizz-free glossy look which everyone wants, especially during the festive season. This also helps prevent split ends and helps with hair growth, thereby giving long & healthy hair.
