The dry air can make children's hair dry and frizzy. But as parents, you would always try to protect your Preschool going kid’s natural hair from the harmful dry air of the winter months. But how are going to take proper care of their hair? Here, you can find certain helpful tips to make sure their hair remains healthy during the winter season also. Moisturize the air -If you are planning to use the heater in your home to cope up with the cold weather, please understand it will make the indoor air drier. You can think of buying a humidifier and using that in your children’s room would add some moisture to the air. This extra moisture in the air would help prevent some common skin and hair problems. Use a good moisturizer for hair –The key to protecting your child’s hair from getting damaged in the winter is using a good hair moisturizer. Try to keep their hair moisturized always. Using any natural hair oil would serve the purpose. Take a quarter-size amount of oil on your palm and apply that slowly in their hair starting from the roots to the ends. Deep conditioning –Sometimes applying oil may not work and in this case, using a good hair conditioner is very essential. So, occasional deep conditioning of their winter hair would lock the natural moisture in their hair and this is helpful to maintain the health of their natural hair. According to the Torrance CAdermatologists, you should deep condition your child’s hair at least once a month. Try apple cider vinegar – You must be knowing that apple cider vinegar has many health benefits. It maintains the ph level in the scalp, removes product buildups, softens the hair, removes dandruff, and prevents hair loss. So, you can use the goodness of this vinegar to make sure your child’s hair remains healthy even in the dry winter season. Add a tbsp of apple cider vinegar with 2 cups of water and store it in a spray bottle. Spray the mixture generously throughout their hair. Try protective hairstyles –A protective hairstyle is tying hair in some particular manner that would protect the ends of the hair from breakage and overexposure to the harsh weather.
