With just a few more weeks of winter left, how is your hair looking? The winter season can sometimes be the most damaging to our hair. A big reason for this is because it’s easy to get away from our quality hair care routine when we stay inside and don’t go out much. One of the common effects of the cold weather is getting dry hair, which can become brittle and easily damaged. If you’ve noticed your hair isn’t quite looking as flawlessly as you’d like, here are some tips for protecting your hair for the remaining weeks of winter.

Moisturizing your hair in combination with washing it with a sulfate free shampoo can help keep it healthy for the last few winter months. Preventing dry hair will ensure it’s ready to go when the temperature starts heating up. Plus, you won’t have to worry about damaging it or having to cut off a significant amount of split ends once spring rolls around.

Don’t Overwash

Washing your hair too much can also lead to dry hair. Depending on your daily activities, you may be able to reduce your hair washing frequency to once a week. Just be sure to use a sulfate free shampoo so you’re giving your hair the best treatment possible. The key is to not strip the hair of the natural oils, and the best way to do so is to not wash it as often.

Dry Hair Completely Before Going Outside

If you live in an area where harsh winter weather is common, you need to be extra protective of your hair. Walking out of the house with even damp hair could cause some of the strands to freeze and lead to breakage. Take a few extra minutes to dry your hair completely before going out into the elements.

Protect Your Hair From The Winter Elements

Incorporating a protective hair serum can help keep your hair safe from the winter elements, but sometimes it’s not enough. Try not to expose your hair to the elements as much as reasonably possible, since it’s much harder to revive damaged hair than it is to protect it to begin with. But even if your hair hasn’t made it through the winter looking as good as you’d hoped for, it can always be rejuvenated with a little bit of work and the right hair care products.
