1. Hard water. Dhaka's supply is high in calcium and magnesium. Those minerals deposit on the hair shaft, leaving it rough and dull, cutting shampoo lather, and stopping conditioner from doing its job.
2. High humidity. Airborne moisture swells the hair shaft — that's frizz. Advice written for dry climates ("apply heavy oils") backfires here and just leaves hair greasy.
Building the routine
Once a week — a clarifying wash. Removes mineral deposits and product build-up. Always condition on that day.
Other washes — a gentle shampoo. Focus on the scalp, not the lengths; the ends get clean as it rinses down.
Conditioner — mid-lengths to ends only. On the scalp it weighs roots down and makes them oily.
Tresemme Keratin Smooth (৳749) is the most affordable well-known option for frizz and roughness; L'Oréal Elvive Hyaluron + Plump (৳1,397) leans toward hydration for dry hair.
Hair oil, used properly
- Pre-shampoo: oil the lengths 30–60 minutes before washing so shampoo strips less natural oil. Ribana Organic Coconut Oil (৳450) is plenty for this.
- Post-wash: 1–2 drops of a light oil on damp ends to control frizz. L'Oréal Extraordinary Oil (৳1,999) is light-textured.
- Don't: leave heavy oil on your scalp overnight. In humid weather this worsens dandruff and fungal issues.
The honest answer about hair fall
No shampoo stops genetic or hormonal hair loss. In Bangladesh two very common causes are iron and vitamin D deficiency — those show up in a blood test, not in a shampoo bottle.
What shampoo can do: keep the scalp clean and healthy, and reduce breakage. Any product guaranteeing to "stop hair fall" or "regrow hair" is not making a credible claim.
