After months of searing summer heat, the monsoon is finally here to give us some respite. But, our hair isn’t as happy as the excessive moisture in the environment during monsoon makes them brittle and frizzy often leading to hair fall — which is one of the most common problems during the rainy season, coupled with dull hair and dandruff.

However, with some extra care, you can significantly reduce hair fall this season and keep your locks healthy.

“Taking care of your hair becomes much more difficult during the rainy season. But with a little extra care, you can enjoy this season to the fullest without worrying about your hair,” Dr Nitika Kohli, ayurvedic doctor, wrote in an Instagram post as she shared some useful remedies.
