It's hard to escape pollution... Smoke, exhaust fumes, dust and so on! We know its many negative effects on the skin, and unfortunately hair is not spared! It becomes dull, brittle and oily VERY quickly! Zoom in on our tips to limit the damage and protect your hair against pollution!
Moisturize your hair to protect it against pollution
To begin with and as always… We can never repeat it enough, hydration is the basis of a good hair routine . Masks will deeply hydrate your hair. Choose them carefully according to your hair type . Even if your hair is oily , an oil bath on your lengths from time to time is not to be excluded. This will create a protective barrier on your hair and hydrate it deeply. Every morning, you can apply a natural protective spray to your hair, which will protect it from pollution:
- 50 ml of orange blossom hydrosol
- 50 ml of ylang ylang hydrosol
Mix these two hydrosols in a spray bottle, apply a few sprays every morning to your hair, and voila!
Tip: Store your hydrosol in the fridge, as hydrosols keep better at low temperatures. Plus, the fresh effect will be great for waking up!
In the evening, don't forget to brush your hair with a round comb to remove any particles that have settled on your hair. It will also be a good way to air it out!
Warning! Even if there is pollution, it is useless to wash your hair every evening. You risk destroying the protective barrier created by your sebum. 2 shampoos per week are MORE THAN sufficient.
Every 2 weeks, you can make yourself a white clay mask to apply in the shower to deeply detoxify your hair. After your usual shampoo , apply the white clay and massage gently before rinsing!
