4 beauty tips to keep your hair healthy when you opt for chemical hair treatments

As the seasons change, so do hair needs. The advent of hot and humid weather brings signs of change, such as dryness, frizzy hair and hair fall. This is a common problem, as heat, humidity and exposure to UV rays can wreak havoc on even the healthiest of hair. Gone are the days when sitting for hours wearing a hair mask made from several kitchen ingredients was the first choice. Instead, women today are prioritising quick application, protection for both hair and scalp and long-lasting results.
