Winter is a beautiful season, but its chilly air can often leave your hair feeling dry and lifeless. To help you maintain healthy, luscious locks during the colder months, we’ve compiled a list of 4 essential tips for winter hair care. Keep reading to discover how you can protect and nourish your hair this season!
1. Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize
The cold weather can strip moisture from your hair, leaving it dry and brittle. To combat this, consider using:
- A deep conditioning treatment once a week.
- Leave-in conditioners to maintain moisture throughout the day.
- Hair oil daily.
2. Protect Your Hair from the Elements
Cold winds and dry indoor heating can be harsh on your hair. Protect it by:
- Wearing a hood, hat or scarf when outdoors. TIP: When wearing a coat, split your hair in the back and pull it forward over your shoulders to avoid snagging preventing breakage.
- Choosing materials like silk or satin that are gentle on hair. Like these silk lined beanies sold at Swirly Co. and at all pro Do Blow Dry Bar locations.
- Using humidifiers indoors to add moisture to the air.
3. Adjust Your Hair Washing Routine
Washing your hair too frequently can strip it of its natural oils. Consider:
- Washing your hair less often, such as every 2-3 days
- Using a hydrating sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to prevent further dryness
- Applying conditioner from mid-length to ends to avoid weighing down your roots
4. Nourish Your Hair from the Inside Out
Healthy hair starts with a balanced diet. Ensure you’re getting:
- Plenty of water to stay hydrated
- Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like salmon and walnuts
- Take vitamins that have minerals such as biotin, zinc, and iron. Our Favorite Hair Vitamins are Hush and Hush Deeply Rooted.
By following these winter hair care tips, you’ll keep your hair vibrant, healthy, and beautiful all season. Try incorporating one or two new habits each week, and soon you’ll see the difference that proper winter care can make. Stay warm and keep your hair looking fabulous!
