   2. Never run a comb randomly on your scalp. 
   3. Don’t comb wet hair because the root is soft and can come out easily. 
   4. Use your hand as your comb on your wet hair to remove the spikes. 
   5. Always dry your hair before going out or going to sleep.  
   6. Winter hair care tips include combing hair regularly which will remove the dry skin of your scalp, combing ensures blood circulation and helps the growth of hair. 

2. Oil massage:

Lack of nutrition causes dry scalp and dandruff, especially in winter. Massage your scalp with Coconut Oil to nourish your scalp. Caressing your scalp with Coconut Oil will help to increase blood circulation and nourish your hair from root to tip.

Warm the solid Coconut Oil in sunlight and let it melt. Then apply it on the scalp of your head.  This is the most common winter hair care tip and by applying warm coconut oil religiously winter hair fall problems can be reduced up to 70%. This oil massage technique helps new hairs to grow. 

 

3. Apply hair packs:

Home remedies for hair fall in winter can be useful and easy to access. Some easy and renowned home remedies are –

• Henna pack:

Paste the raw leaves of Henna and apply the juice to the root of the hair. Henna contains phenolic glycosides, xanthones, B-sitosterol glucoside which bonds with hair to make it thicker, fuller and boost volume.

• Egg mask:

Mix an entire egg with lemon juice (quantity as per your hair) and apply it to your scalp. Egg contains vitamin D, B6, B12, zinc, iron, vitamin A, D, E, K, and lecithin. The egg is the natural protein treatment for damaged and rough hair.

• Cow curd:

Mix Olive Oil, Aloe Vera gel, Cow Curd, and egg and apply this mixture. Curds help to prevent dandruff and hence hair fall. 

• Warm steam:

Put the linen towel in the microwave to warm it up, then put it around your head for 10 minutes. Hair steaming helps blood circulation, heal damaged hair, and reduces dandruff from dry scalp. 

• Methi/fenugreek:

Fenugreek seeds are high in protein and nicotinic acid which helps hair growth preventing dryness of hair, baldness, and hair thinning.
