Hair growth and hair loss are two primary worries for anybody. When we particularly talk about monsoon, the climate calls for a specific hair routine. Rains affect your hair even if you remain indoors, especially on days when the humidity is high.

'Depending on your hair type, it may leave your hair frizzy or flat. Hair that is fine, wavy, or curly usually tends to absorb the moisture in the air. This makes fine or thin hair fall flat, but people with wavy or curly hair end up with frizzy strands. The best solution to this is to use a humidity-protective gel before styling. These gels help by forming a protective coat over the hair cuticle and preventing moisture from getting in and also out,' said Dr Apratim Goel dermatologist and laser surgeon Director, Cutis skin studio, Mumbai.
