Even though it is only the first days of September, I can feel the chill of winter in the morning. Winter has arrived, even though we still suffer from monsoon-induced hair problems. It’s time to experience hair problems again! Is it possible to be immune from hair problems? Being immune from hair problems is impossible, but you can reduce your vulnerability.

In the winter, the harsh winds can dry out our scalps and remove all the moisture. The scalp and hair become very dry. Hair becomes frizzy and becomes coarse. The cuticles also become more brutal, making it difficult to manage. The scalp becomes flaky and dry, and dandruff makes it worse! You may remember that feeling when you removed your sweater in the winter and felt the static electricity on your hair. The lack of moisture is the reason for this. Remember when the hair under your jackets or sweaters becomes tangled. Untangling hair is a word of war. What is the result? The comb or brush is covered in broken hair strands. This is due to a lack of moisture on our scalp and hair. Here are some easy and effective homemade hair packs to keep your hair strong and healthy during winter.

Easy Homemade Hair Packs!

Strawberry Hair Mask

Strawberries are one of the most delicious fruits. This fruit is my favorite, and I would use it to mask my hair. Strawberries are rich in Vitamin C, which is beneficial to hair growth. Strawberry extract is also considered an effective treatment for dandruff. This pack is handy for people with flaky scalps. Strawberries not only help to treat dandruff but also prevent any irritation during the winter. Strawberry promotes hair growth. So, while struggling to untangle those tresses, you can relax knowing that strawberries have already done their job.

It is best to use extra virgin olive oil and 4-5 strawberries, depending on your hair length. Add the olive oil and egg yolk to the paste. Blend the strawberries until they form a smooth paste. Apply it to your hair and scalp. It treats dandruff, hair loss and adds shine to hair. After 15-20 minutes, wash off the pack with a mild shampoo. This pack can be used twice or three times a week. If you prefer, you can omit the yolk.

Milk and Honey Hair Mask

Honey and milk are both great for your skin. Milk and honey both have tremendous benefits for hair. The nutrients and compounds in milk help to treat hair loss. It is important to note that milk in winter is suitable for dry and rough hair. It also strengthens hair. Honey adds moisture to the hair, which is essential during the winter.

It would help if you used a mild shampoo to rinse your hair, not a powerful one.

Banana Hair Mask

Fruits high in nutrients but low in calories are a fruit to avoid. Bananas are high in calories but good for your skin, hair, and health. I’ve used a banana pack on my face, and it worked well. Banana is an excellent way to moisturize the scalp and hair. We all know that our hair and scalp tend to become dry during the winter. Banana is not only natural conditioner but can also treat damaged hair.

You will need a ripe banana, an egg, and either coconut or olive oil to make banana hair. Mix the egg with the banana and mash it well. You can also add a bit of olive or coconut oil. This is a complete pack for hair and scalp; it includes a hair fall treatment, moisturizer, and conditioner. Add milk and honey if you don’t want to use the egg. This pack should be applied to your hair and scalp. Let it sit for 20-3 minutes, then rinse with a mild shampoo.

Fenugreek (also known as Methi)

Fenugreek seed can be a miracle for anyone tired of hair loss. It’s also a great way to add volume to your hair. Methi seeds are rich in compounds that promote hair growth and bounce hair. It prevents premature greying of hair by strengthening the roots, preventing hair loss, and managing hair growth. Methi is great for treating dry, rough hair during the winter.

You can use Methi for hair packs in many different ways. It is easiest to soak the seeds in water overnight. The following day, grind the seeds and add water to make them more liquid. If you want, you can also add yogurt. This paste can be applied to your hair and scalp. Let it sit for 20 minutes, then rinse it off. This pack will care for your rough and dry hair, so you can go out without worrying. You can also grind the seeds after soaking them and add mustard oil.

Multani Mitti, aka Fuller’s Earth

Multitani mitti, or fuller’s Earth, has been used in ancient times worldwide to give a face a bright and healthy glow. Multitani mitti has various benefits that give us a healthy and clean look. Mutani mitti can be used to nourish the hair. Fuller’s Earth is mild and has no harmful side effects. It also conditions hair and treats dandruff. Multitani mitt is a great way to treat damaged and dull hair. It also cleans the scalp of toxins. Multitani mitti is effective for all scalp types. For those with dry or oily hair, it tends to add moisturizing and Conditioning.

Mix 4-5 spoons with yogurt. If the pack becomes too liquid, it will make applying it difficult. Add some honey and lemon juice to the group.

Egg Mask

Egg whites are directly linked to hair care for most people. For centuries, egg whites have eliminated frizzy, brittle, and dry hair. Even some shampoos available on the market contain egg white extracts. Egg whites are rich in vitamins and nutrients that help to promote hair growth. They also control hair loss, give your hair a shine and soften the ends.

Take two eggs, separate the whites, and mix until you get a thick paste-like consistency. Applying it to your hair is best; let it sit for a few minutes, and then rinse it off. Add a few drops of olive to the mixture. Rinse with a mild shampoo. This will protect you from harsh winds and provide better nutrition during winter. For those of you who are vegetarians, why not try the egg extract shampoo? You can also use mayonnaise to apply nutrients from an egg.

Dos and Don’ts of Hair in Winter

Will the hair packs above be enough to get you through the winter? It would help if you did more than use hair packs to keep your hair healthy during the winter.

Dos

• Trim your hair regularly at intervals of about one and a half months. Trimming helps remove dry and unhealthy hair, which can lead to split ends. It will make your hair more manageable, and you will have less to struggle with.
• Use warm water to wash your hair instead of hot.
• Deep Conditioning is essential during the winter. Deep Conditioning not only softens your hair but also adds moisture to it. Go outside and get a conditioner for your hair.
• Cover your hair with a silk hat or scarf to prevent damage from the wind. Your hair will be just as static as before.
• Use oil to moisturize your hair and keep it flake-free.
• Water is essential for hair and scalp. Avoid unhealthy foods, as they can affect your hair and scalp.

Don’ts

• Avoid washing your head every day. Winter’s harsh cold air causes hair and scalp to lose moisture. Washing your hair frequently will remove the water that remains.
• Avoid going out with wet hair. While it is not something we would all want to do, you should ensure your hair is dehydrated before leaving the house. The cold air makes wet hair frizzy.
• While a hot water bath can relax in the winter, washing your hair will make a mess. Avoid hot water as it can damage your hair.
• Use hair straighteners and curlers instead of hair treatments. These tools can make hair rough and dry, which is worse during the winter.
• Refrain from brushing or combing your hair too much. If you want to comb your hair, hold it with one hand and then use the comb. You will be able to avoid hair loss by doing this. Apply Serum to get a smooth comb.
