With henna you can tackle the five most common rainy season hair issues. How? Read the blog to find out.
Why Monsoon is Tough on Your Hair
The monsoon is known as the playground for scalp infections, frizz, and excess oil.
Here is why?
Monsoon causes humidity, which causes hair shafts to swell & frizz up; this leads to your hair looking unmanaged and untamed.
The moisture that monsoons bring in leads to fungal issues and dandruff.
You sometimes also produce a lot of oil during monsoon season due to humidity, which makes the root greasy and dry.
Now, in between all of this, if you use a chemical-based product, it will make your hair worse and strip away all the natural oil and healthy hair.

Let’s get to the 5 monsoon hair problems that can be solved with henna.
1. Frizz & Unmanageable Hair
The first symptom of monsoon hair is the frizz that humidity brings in. When you go out, your hair becomes frizzy; they look like they have been through the war when they have just been through the weather. To solve this, your hair needs moisture, and here is how you can moisten your hair.
Henna Hair Mask
Henna is known to be a natural hair moisturizer that makes your hair smooth & strong. If you blend curd, aka yogurt, with henna, you will get a hair mask that will solve most of your frizzy hair problems.
Here is the DIY recipe
- Add 2 tbsp Henna powder
- 2 tbsp plain yogurt &
- 1 tbsp fresh aloe vera gel
Mix them into a bowl and apply from roots to tips. Leave the hair mask for 45 minutes and wash with lukewarm water; this will give your hair a frizz-free look naturally.
2. Hair Fall & Weak Strands
When you comb your hair during the monsoon season, you see a lot of hair fall. This makes you feel overwhelmed and confused about what you should do to improve your hair. That is when henna comes into the picture.
Amla-Infused Henna
Mix henna powder with Amla (Indian gooseberry), this will ensure that your hair becomes strong and reduces hair breakage.

4. Dull & Lifeless Hair
When you live in a metro city in 2025, your hair goes through hard water, pollution, and so much more. When you get wet in rainwater, all this water goes directly on your scalp, making your hair dull and lifeless.
To fight this monsoon hair problem, we have natural solutions, such as shikakai.
Shikakai plus Henna Rinse
Shikakai softly cleanses your scalp while balancing pH levels, and henna improves your hair’s natural tones and texture.
Here is how to create a hair booster:
- Brew 1 tbsp Shikakai Powder and 1 tbsp henna powder in hot water.
- Let it cool, strain & pour it on your freshly washed hair.
- Do not rinse. Let your hair soak the herbal goodness.
5. Color Fading (For Dyed Hair)
When coloring your hair during monsoon season, remember that your hair will go through a lot, such as unpredictable rains, not carrying your umbrella, rainwater stripping, and so much more.
But if you have a brave heart & still choose to color your hair, here is what you can naturally do to protect them.
