The New Year is a perfect time to embrace healthier habits; your hair deserves the same attention. Winter festivities can be harsh on your tresses, but with a few resolutions, you can keep them thriving.
Dr. Jangid, Dermatologist and Hair Transplant Surgeon at SkinQure Clinic, Saket, New Delhi, shares key strategies to ensure your hair looks its best throughout the year.
Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. Focus on scalp care by washing it regularly to clear debris, oils, and product buildup that block follicles and hinder growth.
Your diet significantly affects your hair’s health. Incorporate nutrient-dense foods like salmon, eggs, nuts, spinach, and sweet potatoes. These are rich in Biotin, Vitamin D, B12, and omega-3 fatty acids. Stay hydrated to keep your hair moisturized from within.
Frequent use of heat-styling tools like straighteners and curling irons causes breakage, dryness, and split ends. Use heat protectants, reduce usage, and let your hair air-dry whenever possible.
Chemical treatments can cause more harm than good. Choose sulphate- and paraben-free shampoos and conditioners, and consult professionals before opting for chemical-based procedures.
Ignoring early signs of hair fall can worsen the condition. Visit a certified dermatologist promptly. Early treatments, including medications, PRP, or GFC therapies, can be effective. Severe cases may benefit from hair transplantation.
Home remedies and social media trends may seem tempting but can harm your hair if misapplied. Always consult experts for personalized advice instead of experimenting blindly.
Fragile hair requires careful handling. Use a microfiber towel instead of rubbing with a regular one. Detangle with a wide-toothed comb, starting at the ends and working upward.
2025 offers the perfect opportunity to prioritize your hair’s health. By focusing on scalp care, balanced nutrition, and professional guidance, you can avoid common issues and nurture luscious locks. Stick to these habits, and watch your hair transform into your crowning glory.
