The typhoon season may have come earlier this year, but that doesn’t mean you should let the wet season get you down. While you could spend a good amount of time preparing your hair in the morning, it just can get easily dampened by the heavy downpours at the end of the day.
While rainwater is considered the purest and safest form of soft water, the first rains can actually have some harmful effects on your hair too as it washes away the harmful impurities and chemical pollutants in the atmosphere.
As much as we want to avoid rain, sometimes getting drenched in it is inevitable. So here are some tips to help salvage your style this season:
1. Keep it simple & stylish
3. Condition and care
The rainy season will be here for a while, whether we like it or not. That’s why it’s important you have a regular conditioning routine to protect your hair from frizzing. If you have hair that has undergone a rebonding or keratin treatment, it’s even more important to use the right products to counteract damage from the rain. Widely for its Smoothing Therapy, the Keratin Complex Care Conditioner is most used to fight frizz while enhancing softness and smoothness. For rebellious or straightened hair, another popular choice is L’Oreal Serie Expert’s Liss Unlimited Conditioner that can block out humidity and provide up to 4 days of anti-frizz effect.
4. Stay dry, dry, dry
The humidity that comes with the typhoon season can speed up the breeding of bacteria in the hair – and we definitely wouldn’t want that! Not only is it cringe-worthy, it can also result to serious scalp infections. It is, therefore, important to dry your hair completely! Obvious as it may be, towel drying your hair gently or letting it dry naturally will help you keep a healthy scalp environment. If time is not on your side, use a quicker solution like the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer that can do the job in less than 5 minutes while minimizing hair damage making it a super-worthy buy especially for busy women.
