Protecting Your Hair From The Chill With These Helpful Solutions
Protecting your hair can be a struggle, especially when you have to protect it from a variety of things. From heat damage to dehydration, there are a lot of different factors to consider, and just one more thing to consider when you want to keep your hair healthy. We are here to make it easier. So here, we have a variety of helpful tips to give you the information you need for happy, healthy locks!
Hydration Is Key
As always, hydration is one of the most important things to keep in mind when it comes to protecting hair. So keeping on top of hydrating shampoos, conditioners, leave-in conditioners, and deep conditioning treatments. Cold temperatures can promote dehydration, so make sure to replace them with deep conditioners weekly and hydrating products.
Hats and Covering
Using hats in winter and during chilly autumn days can be key in maintaining your hair health throughout the seasons. But of course, if hats are not quite your style there are a few other options available that might suit your fancy a little better. Using head scarves or head wraps, for example, can provide just as much protection against the elements as a beanie or baseball cap. You could even use the hood of your jacket.
Wash Every Other Day
If you recall, moisture is precious when it comes to hair and cold weather. Shampoo strips the hair of moisture, and can be damaging to sensitive hair types even with conditioners and precautions. This is why it is recommended to instead wash every other day, or even once a week in extreme cases. You can counteract the amount of moisture that is stripped from the hair by using shampoos with formulas meant to promote hydration when you do use them.
The Fight Against Dandruff
Everyone knows that cold weather dehydrates the skin and makes it more likely to get flakey and sore. The same thing can be said for the scalp. Cold weather can amplify the amount of dandruff you have, which means all the more for you to deal with. However, it is pretty simple to combat this. Combining anti-dandruff shampoos and conditioners with a tri-weekly scalp oil will not only keep your hair soft, but it will also provide moisture and nourishment to keep your scalp flake free!
Use Fantastic Salon Treatments
There are a variety of options to use at the salon to keep hair healthy during winter. For example, regular trims are always a great way to make sure to keep your hair sleek and healthy regardless of the weather. PR at Partners also has a selection of hair masks and treatments to help maintain moisture. Getting regular salon treatments like these is sure to help put a little extra love and care into your hair.
Fight Damage and Strengthen Hair With Nutritious Food
One more way to promote scalp and hair health is through proper eating. Keeping your hair and skin nourished with the vitamins and minerals you get from healthy foods is a great way to keep your hair and scalp flourishing. Therefore, keeping up with your diet is especially important when it is cold out.
