I am a SSI divemaster and a Padi Rescue Diver

hair and scuba diving

You might not have expected this video on this channel but

the other day one of my coworkers asked me how

I could maintain such "healthy" hair while doing scuba diving

especially because is it true that

when I was working in Malta my hair got a bit fried by the sun

and now that I am working every week ish on a chlorinated pool

it is a bit dry

first of all you might notice that I have short hair

it is not only because I do scuba diving

it is also because I find it more convinient

I shave it...

once every other month

so that it (they) stay relatively healthy

and then compared to when I had long hair

it is not as dry as it used to be

and the other reason for it to be so short is that

in the mask, when it is very long

it tends to go...

you know like ...there (places their hair in front of their eyes)

and it creates a crease where

the water can come in

and it is very anoying to have to check your hair

and check everything

and empty your mask every other minute

I also used to wear bandanas and

and the good old hood is also a good compromise if you have loosy hair

umh, ponnytails also, are a good idea

if you have long hair and that it can stick on a ponytail

as for my hair health itself

I don'tuse any particular shampoo

I usualy use what my partner or sister is using

sometimes I use hena which is some kind of colored powder

that can turn your hair black, ginger ish

or sometimes there is the neutral one that doesn't turnyour hair any color

it just creates some kind of coating

around the hair fiber

so that there are more strenght i think

so that could be an idea for you if you have

time to spare on trying some new products

and when the

tip of my hair is very very dry

I sometimes use some coconut oil

because that is a staple on my ooking cabinet so...

I kinda smell a bit like food but... meh!

that's good enought i don't use a lot of products on my hair

I know that my mother in law buys some

food supplement, I think it is a yeast

that makes your nais and your hair stronger

so that might be something that you want to look into

if you are into supplements and that you can remember to take your pills on the morning

and there you have it, this is all I do to keep my hair healthy as a diver

as you can see I don't spend a lot of energy on it

this is asuper short video, YouTube encourages us to do

10 minutes + videos, but Idon't even spend 10 minutes on my hair on the morning so...
