Holi brings a festival of colors, joy, laughter and a lively festival of life. However, when colors are printed, they are fun, they can take a toll on your hair, making it dry, brittle and damaged. To keep this Holi healthy and shiny, follow these pre–hairs haircare tips to save and pamper your locks.

1. Liberal oil to your hair
One of the best ways to mold your hair from hard Holi colors is to apply a generous amount of oil before step out. Coconut oil, olive oil, or almond oil can create a protective layer, preventing colors from penetrating the hair shaft. Massage your skull and hair well to ensure a coating well.

2. Opt for a protective hairstyle
Loose hair is more prone to tangling, rupture and color damage. Secure your hair in a protective style such as a tight braid, bun, or ponytail exposure. It also reduces the chances of leaking of colors in your skull, which makes the post-holi cleanup very easy.

3. Use a leave-in conditioner or serum
Applying a leave-in conditioner or serum with SPF can provide additional protection against the effects of drying of synthetic colors. It also keeps your hair hydrated and makes it easy to wash the colors later.

4. Cover your hair with a scarf or cap
If you want to go extra miles to protect your trace, wear a scarf, bandana or cap. This color acts as a physical barrier against powder and liquid colors, which reduces direct contact with your hair. In addition, it adds a stylish touch to your Holi outfit!

5. Avoid shampoo just before Holi
Washing your hair just before the celebration can snatch the skull of its natural oils, making it more vulnerable to damage. Instead, let your natural oils act as a protective shield and clean your hair one or two days before Holi.

Bonus Tip: Hydrate and Nutrition from within

Healthy hair starts with good nutrition. Drink lots of water, eat foods rich in vitamins and antioxidants, and include protein -rich food to maintain strong and shiny hair.
