Looking at yourself every day in the mirror and
wondering when you are going to hit the salon! Fret not
for we are sharing with you hair tips and hacks to
conquer and embrace, while we are all staying at home!

1.Washing your Hair –
Try to minimize using shampoo to once or twice a week
to wash your hair in order to release your natural oils
into the strands. We recommend washing your hair with
plain ol’ water in between if you feel like you have a
greasy scalp. Use a conditioner only on the lengths of
your hair to remove frizz and bring out the smoothness.
Now we are all culprits when it comes to hair handling in
shower! We know it feels amazing to scratch that scalp
but avoid putting too much pressure on your strands as
they tend to break more when wet. Gently massage your
scalp in a to-n-fro motion and not circular in order to
prevent tangles in your hair. Always use an SLS and
paraben-free shampoo to save your hair from harmful
chemicals.

2. It’s all about the masks –
You must have definitely caught up with the whole
masking trend for your face! Well, who is stopping you to
use them on your hair? Fidget a little in your kitchen to
bring out ingredients like curd, mayo, eggs, and honey to
whip up a thick mask and apply to your hair for smooth
and lustrous hair. Wait for half an hour or so and gently
wash it off with a mild shampoo. You would notice that
you wouldn’t need a conditioner to top it up! I f you want
to go professional, by all means look for a hair mask
with keratin or biotin as these are the building block
protein for your hair. Use it at the end of your shower
and wait for 15 minutes. Rinse it off with water and you
will end up with hair as good as they are after spending
a bomb at the hair spa! Try it to believe it!

3.Work From Home Edition –
For all you folks working from home wondering how your
hair is going to look in the video call meetings, dry
shampoo to the rescue! Dry shampoos are a boon to
discovery and are super affordable and travel friendly (in
case you want to carry them later in your travel plans).
Spray some dry shampoo to your roots and brush your
hair to have that immediate volume and that blow dry
effect! We are not kidding, once you try dry shampoo,
you wouldn’t be able to give it up on your dear lives! Use
a sea salt spray to add some texture and to get those
beachy waves! If you want a straight look, damp your
hair and comb out gently by parting your hair in the way
you want. Smoothly, pin up your hair in a criss-cross
manner on your scalp and wait for an hour. Remove
slowly to get that natural straight look. Alternatively, you
may use a leave in serum to tame your hair and give an
impression of a kempt look.

4.Bye Bye to heat and the likes –
Bid goodbye to your heating irons, curlers and heat
brush for a while as you need to give your hair time to
breathe and gather its natural texture. Heat weakens
your hair follicles and thus causes hair fall, dry and
brittle hair. If you want to curl your locks, try the easy
sock-curl hack where you damp your hair and roll in into
a clean sock. Leave your hair overnight or for a few
hours and unroll them into beautiful curls. Also stay
away from steaming your hair often.

5. Grandma knew the secrets –
We are proud of the culture where our grandmoms
would make a weekend by doing the much-required oil
‘Champi’! Well it’s definitely a no-brainer to oil your hair
once or twice a week to nourish that mane and keep that
hair looking bouncy and shiny. Remember to only use
cold pressed raw oils like coconut, olive, mustard or
castor depending on your hair woes. Mildly warm your
oil and massage gently to increase blood circulation.
And please! Do not microwave your oil as it destroys the
linking compounds leading to forming toxic chemicals in
your oil.

6. Cheap once in a while hacks-
Do the first thing to protect your hair by switching to a
silk pillowcase as it reduces friction to your hair. This
helps to prevent unnecessary hair fall and wrinkles
(wink!). Try rinsing out your hair with apple cider vinegar
or rice water for salon-style shine.

We guarantee you will never look back in doubt about your hair concerns once you try these hacks!
