Split ends: Once the hair strands start splitting in the end, the best solution is to cut it off. Regular trims are the best solution to get rid of split ends. However, ensuring your hair is perfectly nourished from root to tip prevents split ends altogether.

Frizzy Hair: Frizzy hair is a sign of dry hair that lacks moisture and takes it from the air around (humidity, here's looking at you!) and makes it worse. Damaged hair is most susceptible to frizzy hair and the best way to keep frizz at bay is by deep conditioning or using packs on your hair which provides natural oils to tame the frizz. Tone down the temperature of the water you're washing your hair with because while a hot shower is relaxing it can damage hair follicles. Use a shampoo with hydrating agents like glycerine that lock in moisture. Another basic change you can opt for is swapping your cotton pillow sheets with silk ones to avoid as much friction that can cause hair to frizz up.

Dandruff: Dandruff has often ruined our good hair days just by blatantly being around. Dandruff signifies an unhealthy scalp. One of the reasons dandruff occurs during this weather is the irregularity of washing the hair which breeds microbes and makes the scalp flaky. So, a regular hair wash a chemical free shampoo with ingredients like ginger and tea tree oil can help prevent dandruff from increasing drastically.
