if you too are a hopeless romantic
just the way I am
then probably you and I love monsoons
but other than that
if you are just another girl-next-door
we definitely hate the monsoons too
because
frizzy, dry, boring hair
Hi guys, it's me Hesha
your fashion and beauty director at Pinkvilla
and given the fact that
it has been pouring so heavily
I decided to pick out some of my products
and share a few tips tricks here and there
that will help you get
healthy hair this monsoon
so this interests you
stay tuned and keep watching
till the end of the video
if you guys have seen my previous videos
I am sure you must have understood
that I have literally like poker straight hair
but I am somebody
who is a huge fan of textured wavy hair
which is why I keep doing these things
and experimenting with my hair
but I got a lot of requests
wherein you people suggested
that you want me to share
a video specifically for
monsoons where I am focusing on
how one can take away from the texture
or probably also curb down the frizz
so I decided to do this video
and one of the things that comes to my mind
first
when it comes to frizzy hair
or taking care of textured hair in the monsoons
is Aloe vera gel
now let me tell you guys
Aloe vera gel is not only great for skin
but also superbly amazing for your hair
and if you guys have seen my
10 beauty hacks video
the link which I will put it down
in the description below
you will notice how I made
a DIY at home hair serum
using Aloe vera gel
now today I am gonna be using
Aloe vera in a different way
and tell you why you can use this
now if you are at home
or maybe just stepping out of the house
you realise that you know oh-my-god
it's raining
and it's gonna really frizzle all out
and be all over the place
what you need to do is
just take a little bit of Aloe vera gel
rub into your hands
and just put it all over your hair
starting all the way from your scalp
taking it all the way down below
now what this is gonna do is
that it's gonna kinda hold on to your hair
and tame the frizz
so even though you do step out of the house
your hair already has some Aloe vera gel on
and you have to just let it dry naturally
without using any harsh tools
or blow dryer
and once your hair dries up
you will notice that the frizz is relatively lesser
and your hair is also extra soft and shiny
now as we all know that
Monsoons tends to give us like
super dry, dull and lifeless hair
which is why what becomes super important is
choosing the right shampoo
and conditioner
specially during the monsoons
now one thing that I keep in mind
when I am picking out a shampoo
for monsoons is that it is
specifically meant
to heal and treat
dry, damaged hair
and which is why Dove becomes my go-to product
because as we all know
Dove shampoos are super rich
and hydrating
which is why they add that moisture back
into that hair
that brings back that life
and gives that extra gloss and shine
so any time that you are using a shampoo
specifically during the monsoons
make sure that it takes care
of dry hair, adds that extra volume
and at the same time
moisture retention is super important
so use a conditioner as well
without fail
another thing we all do after shampooing
and conditioning is using a hair serum
I kinda like the Matrix hair serum
this is the deep smoothening serum
and it's got Avocado
and as we all know
Avocado is amazing
when it comes to kinda taking
care of you know knots and tangles
and also makes the hair super smooth
and nice
but in case you are looking at for something
you know
which is more natural
and you don't kinda want to invest in
hair serum
then there's one thing
that I would highly recommend
you guys to do is
invest in Argan oil
now I don't even know how to begin
with the goodness of Argan oil
because
you know there was a time
when my best friend told me that you know
that Argan oil shampoos, conditioners
or hair serums are super amazing for the hair
especially
to take care of the frizz
but I kinda went mental
because I had to pick like
one shampoo, one conditioner and one serum
and all of that
and let me be honest
products that have Argan oil
can tend to be little expensive
so
I decided that I am instead
and gonna go ahead
and invest in
simply 100% natural organic Argan oil
now what I do with
this Argan oil is that
I used it as hair serum
right after I am done washing my hair
and before I am gonna blow dry my hair
or may be probably just let it dry
and sometimes when I am on the go
and I feel that my hair
actually like going crazy
and gotta mind of its own
I just take about 1-2 pumps of it
and I used it all over my hair
and trust me
my hair looks like
it got some sudden instant shine, life
and the frizz is taken care of too completely
another thing that I wanna share with you guys
is the
importance of actually using
a heat protectant before
we go ahead
and kind of style our hair
using any hot iron tools
what a heat protectant does
is that it makes like a protective shield
all over your hair
so no matter what temperature
you are using
whether your hair iron
is at 210
or maybe you are curling wand is at 200
make sure you have heat protectant on
because this is what gonna prevent your hair
from damage
now let me tell you
that frizzy hair
and dull lifeless hair
is also a reason
of super damaged hair
so make sure you take care of your hair
at all points
so if you feel that your hair is really
dry or damaged
opt for products
have a healthy regime
that kinda take care of your hair
and it takes care of the dryness
and adds the moisture back
one of the things
that can help you actually
add the moisture and life back
into your hair
is hair massage
now c'mon
we guys know the importance of hairoiling
as much as a school girl
I was literally running away
from it
but I really thank
granny and mamma for actually
getting me into the habit
of kinda doing hair oiling and massage
and one of her secrets is
what I am actually going to share it with you guys
which is
castor oil
now you all must be wondering
what is such a big secret about Castor oil
because I think most of us
know the importance of Castor oil
specially when it comes to hair
or getting thicker eye brows
or eye lashes
but Castor oil
if you mix it with just
a few ingredients here and there
it can become
your own
quick thing to get that hair
growing faster
and thicker and nicer
what I usually do is
which is taken inspiration from
my granny's hack
I mix Castor oil
with warm coconut oil
I make sure that the coconut oil
that I am using is
organic
and I get a little bit sweet almond oil
because as we all know
almond oil is extremely rich in
Vitamin E
and that really
helps not just in hair growth
but giving you that gloss
taking care of that extra frizz
and at the same time making it shiny
so that's like my little DIY
that I do at all points
one more thing that I wanna take you through
maybe two
one is my simple little hack
that I always do
which is with talcum powder
that I use it as a dry shampoo
and I think specially
during the monsoons
when your hair tends to get dampen
and it literally like putting all the weight down
and you are feeling really heavy on the head
a little bit of talcum powder
can go a long long way so
just dust it a little bit
rub it on your hair
and just see how all of that moisture
and oiliness gets absorbed
and you gonna have like
super shampooed hair
but with powder
and last but not the least
I have
my secret ingredient here
Olaplex as you guys know
or may not know
let me tell you a little bit about it
it's just a hair perfector
it's actually hair strengthening proteins
that goes back into your hair
and gives it that nourishment
and that niceness
that your hair needs
and best part about Olaplex is
that you can leave it all night long
you can actually wear it and even
step out because it is non-greasy
non-sticky
or simply use it as a conditioner
for about 10-15 minutes
before you kind of rinse off your hair
ummm
I wanna give a quick disclaimer about Olaplex
Olaplex treatments are actually available
at multiple salons here
but you know what happens
is sometimes salon treatments
can get a little expensive
so what I instead do is
that I go ahead
maybe invest a little bit extra
into picking up the products
that I could be used
that could be used at home as well
which is why I once went ahead
and got myself a Olaplex treatment
and I realised that
Olaplex was so amazing
that I actually spent money to pick it up
so yeah that's pretty much it for me guys
I think these are few tips, tricks and products
that I use specially in the monsoons
to take care of my hair

share it with you guys as well
