Protecting your hair during the cold period

It is very important for you to take extra special care of your hair within these few cold months of the year. The cold temperatures are well known for having a negative impact on your hair. However majority of people care more for their hair in summer months than winter months.   Below are 6 ways to help you look after your hair in these colder months:  

1) REGULAR HAIR CUTS/TRIMS
As temperatures drop people’s heating get turned up which has a negative affect on your hair. Indoor heating drys your hair which can lead to split ends which can cause frizz and hair breakage.  

2) DRINK PLENTY OF WATER
Dehydration plays a huge role in damaging your hair and scalp. Keep your scalp healthy and your hair will be happy.  

3) WEAR HATS/SCARFS
Believe it or not cold air and wind has a drying affect on your hair. Keep it wrapped up this winter  

4) USE TREATMENT CONDITIONERS
Treatment conditioners add moisture to your hair. For thicker hair use hot oil treatments too. For finer hair stick to treatment conditioners, as hot oils may make your hair lank.  

5) SWAP YOUR MOUSSE FOR A BALM
Hair mousse is well known for containing alcohol, although a great hold it can dry hair. Use a moisturising balm to add moisture but still get hold.  

6) EXTRA TOWEL DRYING TIME
Try to towel dry your hair for a longer time rather than rushing straight for the hairdryer. The less blowdrying you do the better
