Freshen Up Your Hair: Simple Tips for a Pleasant Scent

View Photos We may be bothered about body odor that will embarrass us but who on earth actually thinks about whether their hair smells good? The truth however is that hair odor too can cause public embarrassment and ridicule. Ever got a whiff of that stuffy stale smell in a crowded pub where a lot of people are dancing close together. It is not always body odor. You know it when someone's head passes very close to nose and you almost faint. If you want to have hair that smells good then you need to put in some extra efforts but it won't really be that much when you think about the consequences otherwise.

Here are some natural beauty tips for those who want their hair to be fragrant.

Tips To Make Hair Smell Good:

• The first thing you need to do is wash your hair regularly. Greasy and dirty hair is not going to smell any better than it ideally should. Most people don't know how to wash their hair. You need to work on the roots and then move to the tips.

• If you have very thick hair or are otherwise prone to hair odor then you need to wash your hair everyday or at least on alternate days. Use a mild shampoo and a strong conditioner. The conditioner should preferably have a very strong hair fragrance. Fruity smells are the ones that last the longest.

• If washing your hair regularly does not get rid of hair odor then you need to explore other methods. Oil your hair with sweet smelling oils like jasmine or rose oil. Oil your scalp thoroughly and leave it for the night.

• Next morning use a mild shampoo to wash your hair. The shampoo you use should have no smell of its own or else the oiling part will be wasted. Use a baby shampoo like Johnson's baby shampoo for this purpose.

• If you live in a tropical region and your hair sweats a lot due to heat then that could be the cause of the smell. In that case oiling your scalp with cool oils will make your hair smell good. Use herbal oils that have henna, ashwagandha and amla in them. These ingredients cool your head, soothing it and also the profuse sweating is controlled.

• If your problems is very severe and you do not have the time to try all these herbal methods then hair fragrances should do the trick for you. Ideally you should not apply chemicals on your hair but a good quality branded product should be a safe bet.

• Do not spray the perfume directly on your hair. Spay it on your hair brush and then brush your partially wet hair with it. Your hair as it dries will retain the smell. Give your hair some drying time or else the damp smell will overpower the fragrance.

Use these fragrance tips to have hair that smells good and looks great.
