Cold air vs. dry hair and split ends – Temper your hair in the fall!

Proper hair care before the onset of winter will protect them from excessive electrification, frizz and brittleness. Autumn is the best time to harden hair, where the remnants of summer are manifested by split ends and dryness.

When the temperature outside drops, the risk of drying out again becomes real. Hair needs to be regenerated and moisturized. The first step should be switching to a moisturizing shampoo.

7 tips on how to care for your hair in autumn and winter

1. Let’s protect the scalp from thermal shock. Although it is small, but when we leave a warm apartment straight outside, and our hair has not been carefully dried, we will lose more hair than usual, despite all care treatments. This happens as a result of limiting the supply of nutrients to the hair, as a result of constriction of blood vessels. As a consequence, our hair bulbs become weaker.
2. Choose a hat with your head, too tight lying exposes us to the flopping of the hair, and promotes hair loss. As a result of the pressure, the hair follicles do not function properly. The ideal hat should be made of materials that allow air to pass through. Alternatively, you can protect your head from the cold with a scarf. Regardless of what we choose, let’s wash the headwear with a softener that has an antistatic effect.
3. If after removing the headgear our hair is electrified, apply a moisturizing varnish or spread a mist of water using a spray.
4. In order to prevent the unfavorable appearance of the hair, we should use a brush with natural bristles, as well as reach for cosmetics that improve volume and prevent frizz. Avoid alcohol-based products as they can overburden your hair.
5. Conditioners are worth using, even when our hair tends to get greasy. When spreading them, avoid the scalp itself. The most important thing is that the conditioner together with the shampoo should contain such ingredients as: provitamin B5 – it will take care of hair hydration, silicones – they will protect against the effects of mechanical damage and sudden temperature changes, and silk – we will avoid electrifying the hairstyle.
6. Start using the keratin and oil treatment for hair reconstruction and regeneration as early as possible before the onset of winter. Both argan oil, castor oil and keratin will help your hair regain its smoothness and good condition. It is recommended to rub the oils into the very ends of the hair each time after washing them.
7. If you already notice split ends among your hair, be sure to visit a hairdresser. You don’t have to go through a diametrical metamorphosis right away, just cut off the damaged ends, for which unfortunately there is no other solution. In order to protect your hair from splitting again, apply argan oil or serum to the ends as often as possible.
