Dry Hair Protection During Winter -Season Reminders
Keep hydrated internally. Drink plenty of water. Nourish your hair like you nourish your skin. In other words, eat a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables. This will help you to avoid hair breakage and keep your hair soft and lustrous.
Cooler Showers and Baths: Did you know that hot water in winter dries out skin and hair?
Sun Protection- Especially important during winter season for both skin and hair. The sun can dry hair and fade color quicker.
Yes, you should wear a hat, not only to keep you warm but also to protect your hair from the cold winter season. However, a hat made of cashmere rather than wool is preferred, as wool is very absorbent and will suck the moisture out of your hair, leaving it dry and prone to static. Also, the raw texture of wool is harsh and can cause hair breakage, while cashmere will ensure that it stays looking beautifully smooth and silky when you come in from the cold.
To avoid hair breakage, you can also cover dry hair with a scarf, or hat, beret, cap that is satin or silk-lined (you can make these linings yourself or have someone else do it –sew or glue)* If you don’t like hats, try an updo, pulled back in a bun and snood or use clips to hold your hair down to protect scalp from sun.
Dry hair naturally and use common sense: Don't walk outside in winter with 'naked' and wet hair. Ice does not belong on your hair! It will snap it right off! Avoid hair breakage:
Letting your hair dry naturally is best in winter. Make sure your hair is totally dry before going outside. If this is not possible, cover your hair with a hair-friendly head covering. Remove when you reach your destination and let air dry.
Try NOT to turn up the heat. Heated appliances can damage and cause further hair breakage. For our hair, it’s really best to avoid heated appliances altogether if we’re willing to go that route. However, if we simply can’t deal with the results then: Use an ionizing heat appliance to reduce heat damage. Point the device away from your scalp, thus avoiding damage to the hair cuticle. Prior to drying, flat ironing or using heated rollers, etc. apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner or thermal heat protection cream to hair. Keep heat on medium to low and use a heat diffuser on blow dryers.
