Monsoon Haircare with Sameer Salmani

Mumbai (Maharashtra): The air is laden with high amounts of moisture during the rainy season. This excessive moisture traps the dirt and grime on your scalp as well as on the hair shafts. This makes the hair follicles weak and the hair strands coated. This is the primary reason for hair fall during the monsoon. Also, the depositions near the hair roots become the breeding ground of bacteria and fungi which can aggravate your dandruff troubles.

Celebrity hairstylist Sameer Salmani gives tips on how to take care of your hair during monsoon.

1. Protect Your Hair from Rainwater

The rainwater is often acidic or dirty which can harm your hair. If you cannot avoid contact with your hair with rainwater, wash your hair immediately after reaching home.

2. Establish A Proper Hair Wash Routine

Wash your hair at least twice or thrice a week to remove the depositions from your hair and scalp. Use an antibacterial or antifungal shampoo to prevent the buildup of germs at the roots of your hair.

3. Consult with your Hairdresser for home care

It is best to use a leave-in conditioner to protect your hair and prevent frizz and dullness. You can also do a hot oil massage before washing your head. This will help increase the blood circulation in your scalp making your hair stronger.

4. Keep Your Hair Dry

As the percentage of humidity is already high in the rainy season, you should take extra care to keep your hair dry during this time. Excess moisture can make your hair heavy and limp. Use a clean, soft towel to dry your hair after a wash. Do not tie your hair while it is wet as this will damage the roots of your hair.

5. Keep Your Hair Short

It is best to maintain a short hairstyle if you are facing a lot of hair fall during the monsoon. Long hair gets pulled and is likely to fall out more. Trimming the ends of your hair will also remove the damaged or split ends, thus making your hair grow better.

6. Adopting A Hassle-free Hairstyle

It is best to go for a minimum styling hairdo during the rainy season. The use of heat and styling products can make your hair weaker and prone to breakage.

7. Follow A Proper Diet

Your diet has an important role to play in maintaining the health of your hair. Make sure to eat a proper diet that includes green vegetables, dairy products, eggs, walnuts, nuts, etc. to add shine and lustre to your hair and promote its growth. Drink adequate water too to keep your body hydrated.

8. Show Some Extra Love to Your Hair

Use hair care activities such as a hair serum suitable for your hair type. This will nourish your hair and prevent frizziness, hair breakage, etc.

Actresses Chandhini Bhagwanani and Simran Budharup share their experience with Sameer Salmani’s haircare treatments.

Chandhini Bhagwanani says, “I have been wanting to cut my hair and get a nice hair transformation for a very long time but my profession as an actor restricts the vast changes. So, I wanted a salon that will bring novelty to my look while keeping my originality intact. My friend suggested Sameer Salmani. I informed him about my hair transformation needs.

When he asked for my hair references, I asked him to do what he thinks is best for me. Initially, I was scared but the moment I saw my newly coloured and trimmed hair, I was so happy and excited. I had a brilliant experience and the materials and equipment used on me were of latest technology too. I would recommend Sameer Salmani to everyone.”

Simran Budharup says, “I was looking for a colour that would suit me for a long time and every time whatever I wanted, I couldn’t get that. But this time, I got the colour of my wish and Sameer was good at his work. The environment was chill and he was able to understand what I want. I love my hair colour and it was a very good experience!”
