Healthy Hair Tips Although Often Use Helmets

-
For those of you who every day have to wear a helmet because they have to go to work using a motorized vehicle, it is important to pay attention to the health of the hair more carefully. Especially if you rarely wash the helmet, this can make hair limp to cause your scalp itching. Recognizing this condition, many motorists then hook helmets with hair loss.

If you want hair to stay healthy even though you often wear a helmet, you can make it happen with the simple tips below:

1. Maintain the cleanliness of the helmet


As an effort to take care of your hair, you also have to take care of your helmet properly. Clean the helmet regularly, especially the inside, so it doesn't accumulate too much dust or dirt. Store your helmet in a clean, spacious and cool place when not in use.

"If you are accustomed to using a helmet or head cover to drive or move, you should also pay attention to the cleanliness of the helmet and head cover," said Dr. Dyah Novita Anggraini from KlikDokter.

2. Choosing the right helmet


Choose the right helmet in terms of use. Wearing a helmet that is too tight, for example, can cause a health condition called traction alopecia or hair loss. This is because a helmet that is too tight will pull the hair constantly towards the rear.

For that, choose a helmet of the right size, not too tight or too loose. Before driving, take the time to wear the helmet properly to prevent your hair from being pulled too far back.

Based on the criteria of U.S. The Consumer Product Safety Commission, good and precise helmet characteristics are:


  • Fitting: not too narrow or loose, so it's not easy to shift from one side to the other, or from front to back.
  • Flat: form a square on the top of your face to cover the forehead area.
  • Stable: the straps on the chin function so that the helmet remains in the correct position and does not shift. Straps should always be in good condition, replace them if damage occurs. If not, the helmet can still be released when an accident occurs.

3. Pay attention to the condition of the hair


After dealing with helmets, it's time to think about your own hair. Not a few people who routinely clean the helmet, but still have problems with aspects of the hair. Usually, this happens because of sensitive hair.

According to Dr. Dyah, if you are used to wearing a head covering whether it's a hijab or a helmet, you should regularly wash it. That way, your scalp will stay clean. "But before shampooing, make sure you comb the hair first. The goal is to prevent excessive hair loss. "

If you have just washed your hair, take the time to dry it or dry it yourself before wearing a helmet. This will prevent sweat from mixing with your hair and reduce the possibility of other hair problems.

However, to maintain healthy hair, internal care is also important, such as eating nutritious foods. Hair needs nutrients such as protein, iron, vitamin C, omega-3, vitamin A, zinc, and vitamin E. So make sure you get these nutrients in a balanced manner.

Wearing a helmet every day can make hair easy to scratch and itchy scalp. For that, consider the three tips described above, so that hair stays healthy. If you have a hair problem that is not finished, especially if it is worsened by wearing a helmet, immediately visit a doctor to get appropriate treatment.
