Now that autumn has arrived, you’re likely bracing yourself for the incoming cold in all sorts of ways. Now is the season of warm lattes, toasty sweaters and tall boots, spiced apple cider and enjoying the crisp air and gentle, swaying dance of falling leaves before the first snow touches down. However, while you may be enjoying the change of weather, your hair certainly isn’t!
As the holidays start closing in and winter begins to replace autumn, you may find yourself dealing with especially dry hair. While you may chalk this up to simply being one of the less enjoyable parts of winter, you can also do something to lend your hair a helping hand. Here are some tips!
Make Your Humidifier Your Best Friend
Simply staying in the warm indoors isn’t enough to keep your hair properly moisturized! It’s often just as dry as the air outside but with an unwanted bonus of static electricity that can cling to your hair. A common humidifier can help assuage this problem by providing a bit of extra moisture for your hair to absorb. No longer will you have to worry about frizz since the harmful excess humidity you’ve felt in autumn will be long gone!
Try to Limit Your Shampooing
Use hydrating shampoo sparingly this winter.
When it comes to dry hair, you may consider hydrating shampoo to be your ultimate savior. However, using it too often can bring its own poor results. It’s worth mentioning, first off, chilly air and soaked hair do not mix. The cold weather will immediately dry your hair out. Try to cut back on washing your hair by doing so every other day or up to three times per week.
Bundle Up
All the warnings Mom gave you about bundling up before leaving the house really do hold true! Wearing a hat is a great way to shield your hair from the frosty air outside. This will help to retain moisture. Of course, you also want to avoid your hat ruining your perfectly styled hairdo! To keep your hair as sleek as it was when you first left the house, pair your hat with a scarf made from moisture-protecting materials, such as silk.
Invest in Extra Protection
There’s no such thing as being too careful! If you’ve followed every step and find your hair is still a little on the dry side, it may be worth your while to invest in some protective hair serum to really lock in your hair’s moisture. Even a little bit worked into your follicles can help stave off cold air and its unwanted effects.
