How to Get Bouncy Hair in Summer?
1. Oiling your Hair:
Oiling is a great way to cure most of your hair problems. Whatever the hair problem is, oiling is a great way of scalp care to abate the condition.
Apply coconut, almond or olive oil on your hair overnight and wash it the next morning. If possible, avoid shampoo and let it stay for a day.
Doro, a YouTuber, shared her experience of applying coconut oil to her hair and leaving it overnight. She says, “My hair is shining like a diamond and is extremely soft. It looks and feels silky. One of the things that I love the most about these results is that I never felt my hair this thick before. Wow, after using this overnight hair mask I’m more convinced than ever that everyone should use this once a week to achieve extremely moisturized and healthy hair (i).”
2. Keep your Hair Clean:
The sun, sweat and dirt work against your hair during the summers.
Make sure you shampoo your hair about twice a week to remove all the greasiness. Avoid too much shampoo as it can dry your hair out. Use a conditioner whenever you can avoid shampoo as it makes detangling easy.
3. Homemade Hair Packs
Just like your skin, your hair also needs some extra care to combat the ill effects of the weather.
Go in for a hair pack to give your hair some much needed pampering and care. Use a homemade pack to add that extra shine, softness, smoothness, volume and bounce to your hair. Alternatively, you can use an herbal pack or one that is made of natural ingredients. Egg, honey, mayonnaise and yogurt are especially good for keeping hair frizz-free.
4. Nutritious and Healthy Eating
Our eating habits make a big impact on the condition of our hair.
A balanced diet of fruits and vegetables is very important for the nutrition it provides your hair. Include almonds, soyabean, flax seeds, milk and milk products, chickpeas and tomatoes in your diet. If you eat meat or eggs, make it a part of your regular diet. You will no doubt gain the volumizing effect and give you the summer bouncy hair!
5. Drink Water
Your body needs at least eight glasses of water a day. The summer months need you to drink as much water as you can. Keeping your body well hydrated will naturally protect hair from the summer heat and humidity, making sure your hair stays in shape.
6. Avoid Heat Tools
Limp hair tempts you to style more.
Blow drying and styling saves the day when you have limp hair. It also causes damage. The heat blowout sucks out moisture from your hair, especially without heat protection. Styling tools will only make it even worse so air-drying is best to prevent any heat damage.

Note:
Use non-alcoholic beer. Alcoholic beer, if used too much, can dry out your hair and scalp.
- Give your hair a final rinse with beer. The properties in beer will add an instant shine to your otherwise dull and limp hair
- Apply some fresh aloe vera pulp to your scalp and hair. Wash this off after 20 minutes. This lightweight, aloe naturally conditions the hair making it moisturized and improves its quality.
- Apply less shampoo on the tips of your hair. The shampoo suds will automatically come down from the top of the head till the tips. Using shampoo on the tips will further make them dry and lead to split ends
- Go for regular hair trims to avoid split ends and keep your hair looking healthy
- Use a sun protective hair serum and protective hairstyles like updos, braids for your hair
- Using baby talc on the scalp and rubbing it with light fingers will instantly remove the greasiness from your hair making it humidity-resistant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my hair so frizzy in the summer?

Can I wash my hair every day in the summer?
Yes, you can wash your hair everyday in the summer. Ensure that you use a mild shampoo to avoid stripping your hair of its natural oils or irritating the scalp.
How often should I wash my hair in the summer to get bouncy hair?
The ideal frequency of washing hair to achieve bouncy hair in the summer varies, depending on the hair type, activity level, and environmental factors. While frequent washing may be necessary for oily hair, those with dry or curly hair may benefit from the opposite. In general, it should be no more than twice or thrice a week.
