The easiest of hair care tips is to simply switch up your go-to hairstyles according to the seasons. Opt for protective styles like braids during hot summers and elegant buns to combat humidity and rain in the monsoon. The only time a ponytail or open hair may not cost you is during the cooler winter months. Of course, this doesn't count if you are out trekking in Kedarnath in the snow.

You can add protein like eggs and fish, omega 3 which can be found in walnuts and flaxseeds, and vitamin E from spinach, almonds and avocados to keep your hair healthy and happy from within.

If you have a shower head, add a shower head filter to reduce the mineral level. But if you are direct from the tap girly, you may have to use other means like rinsing with apple cider vinegar once in a while. Clarifying shampoos help too as they melt the buildup caused by hard water.

Yes, there is but it is not the same sunscreen you use for your skin. Hair care products that have UV filters protect your hair from the sun's UV rays. This can be found in leave-in conditioners, serums and sprays like the TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Heat Protect Spray.
