Healthy and shiny hair even in winter!

Many people are familiar with dry, electrified, dull, stringy, and unmanageable hair caused by the cold, mostly from the dry air of winter. All this is caused by the frequent alternation of dry, cold and sultry weather outside and warm, usually dry air indoors. Neither hair follicles nor hair fibers take frequent transition well, but there is a solution!

Don’t let it dry on its own!

The winter climate is not good for hair and hair follicles, as the scalp can get dry and itchy, which can lead to intense sebum production and we’re already getting more greasy, dry hair and dandruff. All of this is compounded by the fact that for this reason we wash our hair more often and dry it more thoroughly, and by definition a “let it dry in the sun” attitude isn’t typical in the winter. In addition, in the colder months, we tend to “over-straighten” our hair, which can lead to many effects that are very damaging to the hair and scalp.

According to the Dyson experts, during winter hair care we have to be extra careful not to expose our hair to extreme heat – not even while blow-drying – and so, in addition to using the right tool, it’s also worth shortening your styling and drying time. Following the advice of experts, with a little care, our hair can be as healthy and shiny in the cold months as it is in the summer.

Hat, hat, and more: hat

We could hear the incantation of the winter hat, mittens, and scarves until we got bored—maybe even as adults—of which the hat is most important from the point of view of our hair. Even in mild winters, it is much colder outside than inside. If our hair and scalp are exposed to this kind of frequent temperature fluctuation, it will not have the same pleasant effect of a sauna. For this reason, wearing a hat outside in the winter is essential if we want to protect our hair and scalp.

Silk under wool

Wool has the unpleasant property of causing hair breakage and electrostatic hair, which is why wearing woolen hats can cause greasy hair roots, and wool weaving can cause breakage and split ends. If this is not the perfect hairstyle for you either, choose silk! Silk is a natural material that does not cause allergies, and its use is gentle on the hair and scalp. Wrap your hair in a silk scarf and put your favorite hat on, or maybe choose a headdress with a silk or silk lining.

Washing your hair a lot – yes, there is such a thing

Bal Batu also said, “Hey, we’ll get to that later!” Take his advice a bit and your hair will thank you for it. Excessive hair washing strips the scalp of vital natural oils that moisturize and protect hair. In the colder months, you need to pay more attention to this in terms of the health of your hair and scalp, so it’s worth experimenting to see how long you can stretch the time between washing your hair without experiencing discomfort. While trying this out, it is a good idea to use dry shampoo so that your hair stays scented and looks fresh.

Take care of hydration!

Adequate hydration is not only important for your body and skin, but also for your hair. Indoor heating also strips memory of moisture from the air, which dries out hair and can often cause a dry, flaky scalp. A good solution to this is to add a little oil to your hair conditioner, so that you can replace the moisture, making your hair soft and shiny, and all of this is also good for the ends. For this purpose, argan oil and jojoba oil are the best, and for intensive care, castor oil and coconut oil can be an excellent solution.

Is your hair burning? You won’t

The static electricity associated with dry hair can be fun, thanks to hair falling out everywhere, but most of the time it’s a pretty annoying phenomenon. There are many practices and do-it-yourself tricks to get rid of this – scrubbing with a paper or towel – but there are more advanced solutions than this. According to Dyson engineers, the secret is using the right hairstyling tool. The hair straightening attachment is especially effective for taming unruly hair coming out at the top of the head, and can be used to create a beautiful, mirror-smooth crown of hair. However, in addition to proper styling, don’t forget to moisturize, because static electricity clearly indicates dry hair.

Shape it, don’t burn it!

One of the main causes of dry and damaged hair is improper styling. In the colder months, hair is already more vulnerable, and heat styling and blow-drying enhance this by practically sucking moisture out of the hair fibre. It’s not well known, which is why Dyson experts also draw attention to the fact that due to intense heat, micropores can appear on hair strands, which scatter and refract light and reduce the amount of reflected light and thus the shine of your hair. Fortunately, there are now hair dryers that prevent the extreme effects of heat with smart temperature control, so you don’t accidentally burn your hair while drying. Less damaged hair reflects more light, so your hair will be healthy and shiny even in winter.
