How To Fight Frizz, Dandruff, And Hair Fall In Summer: Expert Tips To Protect Your Hair
As the summer sun intensifies, so do our hair struggles. Rising temperatures and humidity create the perfect storm for hair woes—frizz, dandruff, and increased hair fall. While many reach for quick fixes, experts warn that neglecting your scalp during this season can worsen the problem. 'Frizz, Dandruff, And Hair Fall – Summer's Triple Threat To Your Hair' isn't just a catchy phrase—it's a very real and frustrating reality for many. Dr BL Jangid, Dermatologist and Hair Transplant Surgeon at SkinQure Clinic, Delhi, shares practical and medically backed ways to keep your hair and scalp healthy during the heatwave months. Frizz: Why Your Hair Feels Unruly in Summer 'Humidity causes hair to absorb excess moisture from the air, leading to frizz—especially in curly or wavy hair types,' explains Dr Jangid. 'These hair types tend to have more porous cuticles, allowing moisture to enter and swell the strands. Combine that with dehydration and regular heat styling, and your hair starts to look and feel rough and dry.' How to Tame the Frizz: 1. Choose the Right Shampoo & Conditioner: Use a sulfate-free moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to maintain hydration and prevent frizz. 2. Add a Leave-In or Serum: Lightweight leave-in conditioners or hair serums help lock in moisture and smooth down flyaways. 3. Minimise Heat Styling: Excessive blow-drying or flat ironing dries out natural oils, increasing frizz and potential hair breakage. 4. Protective Hairstyles Work: Opt for buns or braids to reduce the hair's exposure to moisture in the air. Dandruff: Your Scalp's Worst Summer Enemy Sweat, pollution, and excess oil form the perfect breeding ground for dandruff-causing fungi. Dr Jangid says, 'A type of yeast-like fungus called Malassezia thrives in warm, damp environments. It leads to flaky scalp, irritation, and sometimes even redness.' While dandruff doesn't directly cause hair fall, an itchy, inflamed scalp can result in increased scratching, leading to root trauma and eventual hair loss. How to Handle Dandruff in Summer: 1. Use an Anti-Dandruff Shampoo: Look for active ingredients like ketoconazole, salicylic acid, or zinc pyrithione. 2. Avoid Over-Oiling: Excess oil traps sweat and creates a breeding ground for dandruff. Use oils sparingly and wash thoroughly. 3. Keep the Scalp Clean: After workouts or sweating, wash your hair to remove salt and grime. 4. Eat for Your Scalp: Include vitamin B and D-rich foods like eggs, yogurt, and leafy greens to support scalp health. Heat-Related Hair Fall: What's Really Happening 'Increased sun exposure, dehydration, and constant sweating weaken hair follicles,' says Dr Jangid. 'Over time, UV rays break down hair proteins, making strands brittle and easier to shed. Add stress and poor diet to the mix, and you've got a perfect setup for summer-induced hair fall.' Protect Your Hair From the Heat: 1. Cover Up Outdoors: Hats and scarves not only shield you from UV damage but also prevent dust and pollution from settling on the scalp. 2. Stay Hydrated: Water isn't just vital for your skin—hydration keeps the scalp healthy and prevents root dryness. 3. Mild Shampoos Matter: Choose gentle cleansers that clean sweat and grime without stripping natural oils. 4. Oil With Care: A weekly scalp massage with coconut or castor oil boosts circulation. But don't leave oil overnight—apply 2–3 hours before a wash for best results. When to Seek Help Dr Jangid says, "If you're experiencing severe hair fall, constant dandruff, or persistent dryness despite following a healthy routine, it may indicate a more serious scalp condition." He advises consulting a certified dermatologist before the situation worsens. Summer might be challenging, but it doesn't have to spell doom for your hair. With the right routine, mindful product choices, and expert advice, you can enjoy healthy, vibrant hair all season long. Prevention, after all, is better than cure—especially when it comes to your scalp.

Suspicious drone found near Indo-Pak border in Rajasthan, BSF inspects site
JAIPUR: A suspicious drone-like object was found near the India-Pakistan border in Anupgarh, Sriganganagar district in Rajasthan, on Thursday morning, triggering anxiety and a security alert. Shaped like a miniature airplane and fitted with cameras, the object was spotted by villagers around 8:30 am in border village 12A of Anupgarh subdivision on land owned by the Forest Department. Upon spotting the unusual object, locals immediately informed the village sarpanch. The news spread quickly, drawing a crowd to the site. However, villagers showed restraint and alerted the police, avoiding any mishandling. Following the alert, Anupgarh SHO Ishwar Prasad Jangid reached the spot with his team to assess the situation. A team from the Border Security Force (BSF) also arrived soon after. The area was cordoned off with a 500-meter security perimeter, and locals were advised to stay clear of the site. SHO Jangid told reporters that an investigation is underway to determine the origin and purpose of the drone. 'We are yet to ascertain whether it came from across the border or was launched by our own forces during any exercise. Until the probe is complete, we cannot confirm whether it has any Pakistani link,' he said, adding that the matter is being treated with utmost sensitivity from a national security perspective.

IIM graduate asks himself ‘What do I really want to do?', then leaves six-figure monthly salary for a creative career
In a time when career stability is often seen as the ultimate goal, one man's choice to abandon a high-paying job to chase his artistic dreams is capturing widespread attention. Anil Jangid, a former product manager at Amazon and an alumnus of the prestigious Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad, decided to leave behind a six-figure salary and a secure corporate role to pursue music. His story, shared by friend Shravan Tickoo in a widely shared LinkedIn post, is now resonating across social media platforms as a powerful example of personal courage and authenticity. From Corporate Stability to Artistic Passion Jangid's credentials followed a well-trodden path of professional success — a degree from NITK, an MBA from IIM Ahmedabad, and a thriving career at Amazon. Yet, despite reaching what many would consider the peak of professional achievement, he chose to take a different route. According to Tickoo, who met Jangid a few years ago, he was a grounded, ambitious individual with a desire to do something meaningful beyond just career advancement. 'A set career — NITK, IIM Ahmedabad, 6-figure earning PM at Amazon — you know the drill,' Tickoo noted in his post.

Tickoo recounted how they lost contact for some time, but then Jangid reached out with a surprising update. 'Around 2 months back, he pings me and sends me a picture of himself. Ripped like a supermodel. I asked him, 'Dude— you look awesome! What have you been doing?' He said — 'Bhai, last year I once again asked myself — what is it that I really want to do?'' Choosing to Sing, Not Just Dream This period of reflection led Jangid to write and record his own music. When he shared one of his songs with Tickoo, the response was immediate. 'I asked him, 'Did you record it as a hobby?' And Anil, being Anil, said — 'Nahi bhai, I'm trying to become a singer.'' The song, titled "#SunLoZara," was filled with raw emotion and authenticity that struck a chord with those who heard it. Jangid's story has inspired thousands online. 'An inspiring story, Shravan! Anil's courage to follow his passion is a reminder for all of us to embrace our true selves,' one user commented. Another added, 'Respect! Courage like this deserves loud applause.'

From AEN to mining magnate? ACB probes 27-yr service record
Jaipur: Anti-corruption bureau (ACB) has begun examining the 27-year service record of Public Health Engineering Dept (PHED) superintendent engineer Ashok Jangid , a day after carrying out raids at locations linked to him across six districts. Jangid is facing allegations of amassing disproportionate assets in his and his family members' names. On Monday, ACB teams searched two of his bank lockers in city's Vaishali Nagar area and recovered about 5.6 kg of gold worth about Rs 45 lakh. Jangid, who joined services as an assistant engineer in 1998 and is due to retire in 2031, spent most of his career posted in Banswara. While he remained stationed in southern Rajasthan for the majority of his service, ACB found he made significant financial investments in and around Jaipur and in his native village, Paota in Kotputli-Behror district. After recovering documents that revealed five mining leases and ownership of 55 properties spread across several districts, ACB is now delving deeper into the source of wealth linked to Jangid and his family, especially his son Nikhil Jangid. Officials said Nikhil's name figures prominently in the ownership of properties and mining operations, and ACB is likely to question him in connection with the case. "Nikhil completed his engineering degree from BITS Pilani. Jangid invested a huge amount of money to open mining leases in his name. Nikhil got married two months ago. Jangid's daughter completed her degree in architecture from a prestigious private university in Jaipur recently," said a senior ACB officer. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [Click Here] - 2025 Top Trending Search - Local network access Esseps Learn More Undo The father-son duo reportedly bought heavy mining equipment, including crushers, excavators, and blasting tools, worth at least Rs 4 crore. These machines were used to operate mining businesses allegedly run under the names of various family members. Earlier raids uncovered documents related to five mining leases in Malpura, Paota, Udaipur, and Sarwar, along with ownership of 55 residential and commercial plots, 22 bank accounts holding Rs 21 lakh, and expenses of about Rs 30 lakh on the children's education. The properties include an under-construction shopping mall in Paota, a three-storey commercial complex in Jaipur, and two farmhouses spread over 40 bighas of land in Paota. "To uncover the mining leases in the name of his wife and son, we collected records from the mining dept and sub-registrar offices," said DG, ACB Ravi Prakash Meharda. The investigation is now focused on tracing the flow of money and establishing how public service was allegedly used to accumulate personal wealth over two and a half decades.
