Winter is not only brutal on your skin, but it can also dry out your hair

Do you ever notice a change in the texture of you hair during the colder weather? Well the change in temperature and colder season can definitely dry out the hair causing static and frizz. The hair can also become more delicate and fragile, breaking a lot more easily. Today we'll be sharing tips and tricks to help you protect your hair from the cold winter weather!

During the season we also tend to use more heat on our hair, which obviously doesn't help out our hair health. Using hot tools such as blow dryers, flatirons or curlers dries out the hair and can create split ends. That's why it is so important to use hydrating products during the Winter months.

How to Protect your hair from the Winter Weather!

Before I get into different products that can help keep the moisture locked into your hair, there are some other things you can do to leave your hair looking its best during the Winter months.

Getting trims often is a great way to prevent further damage during the colder weather. You don't have to chop off a lot, but some micro trims every couple weeks or once a month can help keep your hair looking healthy.This will help to stop the split ends from running up the strands of hair.

Another piece of advice is to get warm hats! Wearing hats during the winter helps maintain the moisture of your scalp and protect it from the extreme temperatures. Not only does it keep your head warm and look stylish, but it protects your scalp!

The indoor heating is also a culprit of dry and brittle hair. To fix this, having a humidifier in your room will reduce the static in your hair and add some moisture back into the hair.

And as with everything, drinking lots of water and eating healthy food such as nuts, beans and leafy greens will also help promote healthy hair.

Now in terms of products, here are some hair care elements you should definitely be adding into your winter hair care routine. Products that are specifically made for hair hydration and moisture will be your best friend!

Shampoo:

To start your hydration journey,  you should get a hydrating shampoo that's made specifically for hair moisture. The Lakme K. Therapy

BioArgan hydrating shampoo is a great option. It's made with 100% organic argan oil and is sulfate-free. This formula helps to prevent hair dehydration, protects color-treated hair and enhances the hair's natural shine.

Conditioner: 

Conditioning your hair during the winter is a must! This leave in conditioner by Lakme is a customer favourite. It contains proteins to help enhance the softness of hair, helps to detangle, protect and create shinier strands. This product also closes up the cuticle so the hair appears healthier.

Letting your hair deep condition is also a great idea! Take your favourite conditioner, and place a shower cap over the conditioned hair and let it sit for awhile. This will allow the conditioner sink into the hair and really moisturise it well.
