Helmet Hair

Hello Readers,
Firstly, it has been raining cats and dogs in Mumbai and around the city today. The monsoon has officially begun! 
This calls for a session of 'Prep and Rep.' In this segment, we will look at a simple hairdo for my rider chicas (both riders and pillions). The video below is an example that will help you choose a comfortable style to fit into your full/half face helmets and look Fabulous as always. Braids: the true BFF of long hair on motorcycles. Even I twitched my nose a little the first time but believe me they look fantastic, neat and nice.



We all know the truth ladies, you may use Mousse or Hairspray but its not going to last even 20 minutes under that helmet. In hot temperatures like that of my city I recommend you the 'oil and wash' ritual. This will help you maintain the strength of your locks and fight hair loss. If you are unable do this 2 times a week, you may choice once only to bounce to Aloe Vera gel by simply massaging it on your scalp. Let's keep it simple and easy the way we like.
Keep riding! Cheer!
P.S. While riding in rain to destinations where clouds touch the roads, please be extra careful of rash drivers and remember that your machines will react in different ways, both best and worst to water sprayed roads/off-roads.

  1. Nice post Suhani! One practice that I follow and works well with my dry hair is - shampoo your hair 2 days prior to the ride. That way, by the time you wear the helmet, your hair would be less frizzier and will stay in whatever hair style you use.
