As Pohela Boishakh ushers in a fresh start, it’s the perfect time to refresh not just our spirits but also our hair care and styling routines. The festive celebrations, vibrant outfits, and warm weather call for hair that looks effortlessly beautiful while staying healthy. To ensure your tresses are at their best, here are some essential hair care and styling tips by Shailesh Moolya, National Technical Head at Godrej Professional that will help you shine this Bengali New Year.
Hair Care Tips for Pohela Boishakh
1. Hydration is Key
With the onset of warmer weather, hair tends to loose moisture faster, leading to dryness and frizz. A deep-conditioning mask a day before the festivities can help replenish lost hydration. Look for ingredients like coconut oil, argan oil, or hibiscus extracts to nourish your strands.
2. Gentle Cleansing for Healthy Roots
Sweat and humidity can make the scalp greasy, which is why using a mild, sulphate-free shampoo ensures a clean yet balanced scalp. Washing your hair the night before the celebrations helps it settle and makes styling easier the next day.
3. Protect from Heat & Pollution
Outdoor festivities mean exposure to heat and dust, which can make hair dull and lifeless. A lightweight leave-in conditioner or hair serum acts as a protective barrier against environmental stressors while keeping hair smooth and manageable. Opt for products like the Pro Bio Honey Moisture Spray that helps lock in moisture and protect the hair against sun damage, making it ideal for summer styling.
Hair Styling Tips for Pohela Boishakh
1. Classic Waves for an Elegant Look
Soft waves complement traditional Pohela Boishakh attire beautifully. Use a curling iron on low heat or opt for overnight braids for a heat-free alternative. Loosen the curls with your fingers for a natural, effortless look.
2. Sleek Bun with Floral Accents
For a sophisticated yet festive hairstyle, a sleek low bun works wonders. Secure your hair neatly and adorn it with fresh jasmine or rose flowers for an authentic touch of Bengali tradition.
3. Braided Elegance for a Chic Statement
Braids are not only stylish but also practical in warm weather. A side fishtail braid or a crown braid adds an element of grace while keeping hair in place throughout the celebrations.
This Pohela Boishakh, let your hair reflect the vibrancy and joy of the occasion. A little care and thoughtful styling can make all the difference, ensuring you step into the New Year with confidence and elegance. Shubho Noboborsho to all!
