Keep your winter haircare strong during false springs!

Winter can be a challenging time for your hair, with the cold weather and dry air leaving your hair feeling dry and brittle. Potentially even more challenging this year has been the seemingly constant ebb and flow of the season’s grasp on different parts of Canada! No matter what your local groundhog’s shadow may have indicated at the beginning of February, it’s certainly not time to be storing away your winter haircare! Here’s just a few easy reminders to keep your hair looking and feeling its best all winter long.

Protect Your Hair from the Elements
Protecting your hair from the cold is essential to keeping it healthy during the winter months. Wear a hat when you go outside, and try to stay inside when the temperature drops below freezing.

Moisturize Your Hair
The dry air of winter can be very damaging to your hair, so it’s important to keep it moisturized. Choose a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner that are specifically designed for dry hair, and use a deep conditioner once a week to keep your hair hydrated.

Use Heat Styling Tools Sparingly
Heat styling tools can be very damaging to your hair, so it’s best to avoid them during the winter months. If you do need to use them, use the lowest temperature setting possible and apply a heat protectant before styling.

Trim Your Hair Regularly
This is true all-year round – regular trims are essential for keeping your hair healthy. Get a trim every six to eight weeks to keep your ends from splitting and your hair looking its best.

These tips can help keep your hair looking and feeling its best all winter long – even with all of these false starts of spring!
