5 Tips for Your Hair Care During Winter
When the cool breeze touches the earth, we say welcome with a woolen coat and a cup of hot chocolate. But are we seriously looking at our hair.
Why is it Important?
According to Ayurveda, VATA is associated with dryness and cold as it has the property- “thathra rooksho laghu sheetha khara sookshmaschalo anila:” (rookshatha means dryness and sheetha means cold). Dryness is the most important feature during winter. Natural oil production is reduced owing to the climate and thus we have to add moisturizer as a must in our skin care routine. Dandruff can also occur as a part of this dry frizzy hair.
