New Delhi. Be it man or woman, everyone likes shiny, black and wavy hair. Everyone takes great care of their hair to keep it safe. For this, they use shampoo, conditioner etc. and also adopt many home remedies from time to time, so that their hair remains thick and strong. But the problem of hair fall or breakage generally increases in winter. As the weather increases, your shiny and strong hair becomes weak and starts breaking.

In winter, a lot of broken hair is seen while bathing, combing or removing the cap, due to which everyone wonders why their hair is falling? Actually, in winter, hair falls more than in normal days, the reason for which is dry air outside. Experts say that the dry wind blowing in the cold season absorbs all the moisture from the scalp, due to which the scalp becomes dry. Due to dry scalp, hair becomes dry, due to which hair starts breaking and falling.

If you are wondering whether hair fall can be prevented in any way during the winter season, then the answer is yes. To prevent hair fall in winter, you can adopt the following methods after consulting an expert, which can prevent or reduce hair fall.

oil massage
In winter the scalp becomes dry and in such a situation there can be no better way than oil massage. Oil massage helps in increasing blood circulation in the scalp, which helps in strengthening the hair follicles from within. For oil massage, heat 2-3 spoons of olive oil or almond oil and massage the hair roots with it. Oil massage also provides your hair and scalp with essential vitamins to fight the winter winds, helping to maintain the strength and shine of the hair.

Avoid bathing with too hot water
During the winter season, people often like to take bath with hot water. Taking bath with hot water for a long time or washing hair with hot water can damage the hair. The reason for this is that excessive heat reaches the hair, due to which the hair pores open and hair starts falling out. Instead of taking bath with very hot water, take bath with lukewarm water while taking bath. Apart from this, minimize the use of curling iron or blow dryer.

Honey and Coconut Milk Mask
To prevent common hair problems, it is best to use natural things. To prevent hair fall, apply a mask of honey and a little coconut milk on the hair, which can prevent dandruff, frizz and dryness of hair during winters, which will reduce hair breakage. For masking, apply honey and coconut milk on the hair for at least 30 minutes and then wash the hair thoroughly with lukewarm water.

eat well and stay hydrated
Due to lack of essential vitamins, minerals and other hair nutrients in the diet, wrong eating habits also cause hair breakage. Eat food rich in nutrients like Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Vitamin B etc., which will help in keeping hair healthy. Also eat lean meat, curd, fish, soya or other protein foods, which promote hair growth and reduce hair fall. Along with this, drink enough water also.

Hair fall due to weather can be stopped to some extent, but if hair fall is due to any reason other than cold weather, then it is difficult to treat it. For this, see what is the reason for your hair fall, from stress to nutritional deficiencies.
