6 Ways To Avoid Dry Hair This Winter

Ever struggle to keep your luscious locks looking healthy, hydrated, and moisturized in the cooler months? With fall right around the corner here are a few tips and tricks to keep your hair looking like you’ve just left the salon!

1. Turn down the heat

I know in the cooler months you want to feel cozy and warm, but when it comes to healthy hair you’re going to want to try using warm water instead of hot, and ALWAYS use heat protectant if using hot tools for styling.

2. Use a leave in conditioner

By using a leave in conditioner it’ll keep your hair looking and feeling softer, shinier, and more healthy. some great recommendations for a leave in conditioner would be Kevin Murphy’s Leave-in Repair or Bumble&Bumble’s UV/heat Primer.

3. Silk pillowcases

These are a must have! Your hair (and skin) undergo a lot of friction when you sleep at night. not only will you be reducing your split ends, but the silky smooth surface can reduce wrinkles and actually help keep hydration in your face and hair.

4. Oil or conditioner based shampoo

Great hair starts with the right shampoo and conditioner. the fall and winter can be very drying months so use products that have the word moisturizing and hydrating. Great examples would be the Moroccanoil Hydrating Shampoo, Keving Murphy’s Hydrate Me Wash, or Bumble&Bumble’s Super Rich.

5. Take your vitamins (and minerals)

This one can be hard for someone whos constantly on the go but try taking the proper vitamins and minerals and I promise your hair will look and feel 100x better. A great way to remind yourself to take you vitamins could mean setting an alarm, keeping them where you can see them, and combining routines to form a habit.

6. stay hydrated

Drink lots of water! keeping hydrated is getting right back to the basics of great hair, health, and wellness. if drinking water is hard for you, try adding different fruits to add different antioxidants and nutrients into your body!
