We know you are all set to dive headfirst into the colourful madness of Holi and grove to smashing Holi hits like Balam Pichkari and you are sure to get completely drenched in a mix of gulaals, electric blues, and neon greens. This festival of colours is all about letting loose and having a blast! But while you’re gearing up with the perfect outfit and Holi playlist, let us not forget about something super important! – Your Hair!!! Face it, girls, once the Holi colour settles in, your stands will go from silky smooth to as dry as a haystack. But don’t worry, Studiowest by Westside has you covered with the best pre and post-Holi haircare essentials to keep your locks looking absolutely gorgeous and flawless.
Before you step into the riot of colours, let’s talk prep! The secret to avoiding Holi hair horror story – oiling! The oil will help create a protective barrier, keeping colours from clinging to your hair. We know how much you love your hair flowing in the wind, but if you really want to keep your hair safe this Holi, you should tie it up in a chic bun or braid with a comfortable scrunchie that will not damage or pull your hair. Use your bff Pinterest for inspiration and look effortlessly stylish.
You’ve had your fun; you’re drenched in every colour imaginable and are back home to get ready for your Holi after-party. First things first – do not attack your hair with harsh shampoo or super-hot water. Use a gentle shampoo to cleanse your hair. Even after shampooing your hair, some stubborn colours and products can build up on your scalp. Give your hair a mini detox with a scalp scrub that gently exfoliates away any impurities, dead skin, and any leftover Holi colour. Your roots will thank you.
The next step is non-negotiable. Your hair has been through a Holi battlefield, and it deserves some serious hydration. Slather on a rich conditioner and hair mask. Let it sit on for a few minutes while you start sharing Holi pictures. This lets your stands drink up all the nourishment and restore shine, tame the frizz and bring back the soft, healthy glow you love.
Girl! If you thought haircare for Holi ended with the last bit of colour washed away, think again! Post-shower, don’t forget to run a few drops of nourishing hair serum through your locks. It will keep your hair frizz-free, glossy, and shampoo commercial-worthy and not like you just survived a Holi colour explosion. Because we’re aiming for that post-Holi glow-up, and now a post-Holi hair disaster!
Let your hair down, soak up the festive vibes, and celebrate Holi in style with Westside. Head to the nearest store or shop online to get your hands on the best haircare essentials.
Happy Holi!!
