Beautiful and healthy hair also in winter!
The winter weather outside, in addition to spoiling our mood, also has a huge impact on the condition of our hair. Frizz, lack of volume, brittleness or damaged ends are challenges that each of us faces. How to take care of your hair in winter so that it is strong and healthy all year round? We have a few tips for you!
Hair in winter, what about m is threatening
Winter is not a kind time of year for hair. The changeable weather typical for this period in our country puts the strands to a serious test. Hair is then exposed to sudden changes in temperature. We spend a lot of time in warm rooms of offices or houses, where the humidity is low due to the heating. Then we go outside, and the temperature there is already fluctuating around zero degrees. Such a combination can be unfavorable for the condition of our hair, both externally and internally, as well as the scalp itself.
Winter care basics
There is no doubt that hair needs to be looked after all year round – depending on the season, but also on its current needs. However, there are certain activities that, when implemented into everyday care in winter, allow for increased protection against adverse external factors. We have focused on four – in our opinion, particularly important!
1. Focus on moisturizing
In order to protect against dry air, it is worth taking care of proper hydration. This applies to both the strands themselves and the scalp. Dry air causes excessive drying of the scalp and affects the hair cuticles to open more strongly than usual. Then the hair is more susceptible to damage. Here, delicate shampoos based on the action of natural ingredients that moisturize the strands and gently cleanse the scalp will work perfectly . In everyday care, we should not forget about conditioners, masks or hair creams with a moisturizing and smoothing effect. Remember - a solid moisturizing treatment is a killer of frizzy hair!
2. Treat yourself to a hair SPA
In addition to regular care, it is worth planning something extra from time to time and additionally pamper your hair using, for example, oiling. Such a treatment nourishes the bulbs and protects the ends from splitting. Natural oils lubricate the strands, while protecting them from moisture loss. You will give yourself a moment of relaxation, and your hair will reward you with incredible softness, elasticity, bounce and shine - a perfect win-win.
3 . C zapka is your must have!
To wear or not to wear? It would seem that a hat deprives our hair of volume, makes it more electrified or excessively greasy. However, in this situation, a balance of profits and losses should be made, and it always comes out in favor of a hat! It protects the scalp and hair from direct exposure to cold air. A way to make friends with a head covering despite everything is to buy one that contains natural fibers such as wool, cotton or noble materials - cashmere or silk. In winter, we should also pay attention not to press the hair too tightly with a scarf or not to put a handbag on the shoulder covered with hair, which can damage the hair cuticle.
4 . Massage and strengthen
Every day, we lose dozens of hairs - this phenomenon is completely normal and should not be a cause for concern. However, in winter, we can observe that the loss is more intense. It is best to use cosmetics that strengthen the hair and its bulbs. Lotions are perfect for this task. It is a good way to stimulate growth, improve the condition and strengthen the hair from the roots, as well as stop its loss. Lotions are a preparation intended for use on the scalp. Its application, as the name suggests, involves rubbing the liquid into the scalp using the fingertips, special "rakers" or massagers.
Regularly massaging the scalp has a positive effect on its blood supply, and as a result, the active ingredients contained in the lotion act faster and better on the bulbs, which are responsible for the condition of our hair.
