Holi celebrations involve vibrant colours and outdoor fun but can cause skin and hair damage due to synthetic pigments, sun exposure, and harsh scrubbing. Experts advise pre-festival skincare including gentle cleansing, moisturizing, oil application, and broad-spectrum sunscreen use. For hair, oiling and protective hairstyles help minimize damage. Post-festival care involves gentle cleansing and avoiding harsh treatments. Dermatologists warn that poor preparation can lead to rashes, pigmentation, hair fall, and breakouts, emphasizing prevention and aftercare to protect skin and hair health.
