Pre-Holi Safety Tips To Follow

We suggest following these tips to ensure that you take every precaution during Holi 2024.

Hair Care Tips

The Holi colours can mess with your hair making it dry and causing damage. Hence, before Holi, keep your hair protected in the following ways.

Do’s Don’ts
Oil your hair before or on the day of the festival to easily remove Holi colour Avoid shampooing your hair before Holi as you will have to wash it thoroughly after playing with colours
Get a haircut to remove split ends before Holi as the colours might add to the dryness and frizz after the festival Avoid leaving your hair open before and during Holi
Cover your hair strands by tying them into a ponytail or a bun. This helps prevent the colours from entering your scalp directly. Avoid exposing your hair to the sun for long hours

Skin Care Tips

Wondering how to remove Holi colour from your face? Follow the below-mentioned Holi skin care tips to protect your skin.

Do’s Don’ts
Lather your skin with an oil or cream to create a protective barrier. You can try using    the Ainhoa Luxe Hydro-Nutritive Cream (Gel) which is enriched with Vitamins A and E, keeping your skin moisturised and hydrated throughout the day.                                                     Avoid getting any facials, chemical peels, waxing, threading or laser treatments since they will make the skin more susceptible to contamination and allergies                               
Use petroleum jelly to avoid staining your skin. This can also help remove Holi colours easily Avoid using harsh scrubs to get rid of the colour that stains your skin after Holi
Use sunscreen before playing with colours and re-apply it every 3-4 hours Avoid showers with extremely hot water or harsh products since it exacerbates dryness

Post-Holi Safety Tips To Follow

Once you’re done enjoying Holi 202 with your friends and family, it’s time to wash away the colours without ruining your hair and skin.

Hair Care Tips

Holi hair is a task to rinse off, don’t you agree? Well if you’ve followed our pre-Holi tips already, the job might be easier for you. Nevertheless, you can follow these tips to wash away the colours from your hair after the festivities are over.

Do’s Don’ts
Use a gentle shampoo to rinse out the colour from your scalp and hair. We suggest using the System Professional Purify Shampoo which is ideal for calming, moisturising and restoring your scalp while nourishing your tresses. Avoid colouring or smoothening your hair immediately after the Holi festivities as the colour might make your strands weaker
Continue oiling your hair post the Holi 2024 festival to ensure that your tresses remain moisturised. Practise oiling hair at least twice a week for the best results. Avoid heat styling your hair without heat protectants
Hair spa is a good option to consider post-Holi for re-hydrating therapy that restores vital oils and moisture to your hair roots. Avoid tight hairstyles or accessories that can increase breakage

Skin Care Tips

If you’re wondering how to remove Holi colour from your face, we have you covered. Follow these Holi skin care tips to ensure your face remains soft and supple even after the festival.

Do’s Don’ts
Opt to double cleanse your skin if the general cleansing routine doesn’t help. Try the Ainhoa Ultra Purifying Cleansing Gel to remove dirt, oil and other impurities from your face followed by any hydrating cleanser of your choice. Avoid getting a skin treatment immediately after Holi
Keep moisturising your skin regularly to make your skin supple and soft Avoid using topical creams or products that are not dermatologist approved as they might make your skin drier and prone to acne and chafing post-Holi
Consider getting a Hydra-Medi facial at any of our Bodycraft clinics near you. It is a 3-in-1 treatment that restores hydration in your skin, tightens pores and tones skin, and clears congestion. Avoid physical scrubs
