Summer time has come and soon we will be reaching the peak of these hot months. Summer works as a warm welcome from the cold nippy months, but brings with it plenty of hair problems. So, there is good as well as bad news with the arrival of summer. First, we would like to share the good news. For all those, who have been waiting to grow their hair long, this is the time. During summer, our hair grows faster, so just get a trim done and see how fast your hair will grow. It can grow really long and that too fast.

The flipside of summer is sweat, dirt and grime which accelerates dandruff and eventually causes hair fall. This is the time of the year when you have to keep your head clean, wash your hair everyday if need be. But be careful with your shampoo, use a mild pH balanced shampoo.

* Sun can dry out your tresses, especially so if your hair is chemically treated. Sun damage can make your locks look like straw, protect your mane before stepping out. The scorching heat can play havoc with your hair.

* Stay away from the swimming pool if you can. Water in the pool can make your tresses dry and weak since this water is chlorinated. Extreme care and protection is needed, invest in a good sunscreen for your hair. Also wash your hair after every visit to the pool.
