Why Hair Fall And Frizz Increase in Monsoon?
Of course, rain brings much-needed relief from the scorching heat, but tags along high humidity, sweat, and damp air, all wreaking and creating havoc on your sassy manes. What’s more troublesome is the excess air moisture, making the scalp very oily while the strands remain dry, leading to an imbalanced scalp environment. Wet hair is also more vulnerable to damage, and if not dried properly, it may result in hair fall and split ends. Moreover, frequent tying of wet hair can lead to scalp irritation and even bacterial growth. The result is chronic hair fall, thick dandruff, and scalp health woes. Rainwater, often acidic and polluted, can do the following to your scalp and tresses:
- Weaken hair roots
- Causes scalp infections or fungal buildup
- Lead to hair fall, frizz, and split ends
- Promote bacterial growth if hair stays wet for too long
