Straight hair
After you have washed your hair, apply leave-in hair oils or serums. Avoid applying them closer to the roots as that can make the hair look flat. Hair can become frizzy due to excess humidity and so adding a leave-in helps with combating it. Rice water is a great way to manage frizz. You can apply it on your hair for 15 to 20 minutes just before shampooing. Use products as per the density of your hair. Limp hair needs light weight products whereas thick hair will need slightly heavier products to tame the frizz

Wavy hair 
Avoid a lot of hair styling this season and keep it simple. Covering your hair while travelling helps a lot.  
For this hair type, depending on the thickness, you can either use leave-in conditioners or balms. This helps to keep frizz at bay for a longer time.  
Try applying curd to your hair. This moisturises and prevents frizziness in the hair. Leave the curd for 15 to 20 minutes before washing it off.  No matter the hair type, deep conditioning once a week or a hair spa is highly recommended

Curly hair
Special products for curly hair like curl creams or slightly heavier leave-in conditioners are recommended. Curly hair tends to be naturally frizzy as compared to straight hair. So it might need extra attention during monsoons because of the humidity. A hair pack of coconut milk or flax seed would be great before a hair wash. Apply coconut milk on your hair for 10 to 15 minutes before shampooing. You can also apply flax seeds that have been soaked overnight, which give a gel-like consistency. Apply two tablespoons, depending on the length of your hair. Using silk bonnet or silk pillowcase works wonders for wavy hair, especially if you have long hair.  

Bye Bye Frizz Mask
Well-suited for curly, wavy and straight hair, this mask helps in taming, hydrating and adding a shine to your hair. Wash your hair with shampoo and then begin to massage your scalp and hair with this mask. Leave it on for 3-4 minutes and then rinse

Homemade Avocade Mask 
There are a few hair masks that you can make at home in order to keep your hair hydrated. Crush the flesh of avocado and make a paste, which you can directly apply on the hair; or mix the paste with coconut oil and apply. Leave it for 15 to 20 minutes and then wash your hair. If the smell doesn’t bother you, apply egg whites in your hair and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes and before shampooing
