Managing your hair in the hot summer sun is a challenge to say the least. For those of you who love your long tresses, here are a few tips.
Use the proper comb:
Taking out the knots in the hair with the wrong comb can cause hair breakage and long term damage. Use a wide toothed comb for better results.
Cover your hair:
Exposure to harsh sunlight dries up the hair. Protect your tresses by wearing a scarf or a hat. In the least, use an umbrella when outdoors.
Natural hair masks:
The internet is full of hair care treatments that are easy to do at home. Use natural products for long term gain. The easiest mask to apply is the egg mask. Eggs are high in albumin, a natural conditioner.
Hot oil treatment:
Massage your scalp with hot oil. A mixture of natural oils can lead to best results - coconut, olive and avocado. These oils are readily available in supermarkets across the city.
