Winter Hair Care Tips to Keep Your Hair Healthy

Frigid temps and dry air are often the killers of a good time and a good hair day. Winter weather is notorious for depleting our hair’s health, leading to fragile strands, breakage, and staticky style issues. The good news is there are a plethora of winter hair care products and cold weather care tips to help keep your mane in shape during the snowy season. Scroll on and learn how to care for your hair in winter!

Preventing and combatting winter hair woes isn’t as hard as it sounds. With a few simple shifts in your daily routine, your mane can avoid the dreaded effects of cold weather. While this one seems fairly obvious, it is important to reiterate. Whether you are leaving for work in the morning or going to and from the gym, never go outside with wet or damp hair. Wet hair and freezing temps do not mix. Allowing your strands to freeze and expand will result in breakage and faster color fading. If you must leave your house with damp hair, opt for a hat and a hood. You may have to deal with hat hair later, but that’s better than broken strands.
On the same note, hat hair is an unfortunate side effect of winter. To avoid dents and creases in your style, as well as increased breakage due to the friction of harsher fabrics, invest in a satin or silk bonnet or cap to wear beneath your hat. Additionally, sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase at night to continue protecting your strands while you sleep.
Dry winter air combined with the heat-induced dry air of our homes often causes scalp and hair issues. As this dryness increases, a flaking and itchy scalp can become an annoying reality. If you can, shampoo your hair a little less to avoid drying out. For those who need extra oil control at the root, reach for a dry shampoo and conditioning oil for your ends to avoid overwashing.
