No doubt, winter is a beautiful season. But, the dry air and the freezing temperature not only affect our skin but also make our hair dry, unmanageable, brittle and our scalp gets prone to itchiness which subsequently leads to dandruff. Like we care for our body and nurture it with various skincare products and cosmetics products, our hair also needs extra care during winters. Here are some easy-to-use healthy-hair tips to keep your locks happy and healthy throughout the cold weather. Oil Massage: Regular oil massage of hair and scalp is a vital hair care regimen during winter. Change in temperature can cause split ends and regular oiling can prevent hair breakage effectively. Go for essential oils like almond oil, olive oil or herbal revitalizing hair oil that will provide your skin and hair with vitamins. Less Shampooing: Use shampoo not more than twice or thrice in a week and use lukewarm water to rinse your hair to retain the moisture. Frequent hair wash during winter can leave hair brittle and scalp dry and flaky. Conditioner: Hair conditioner is an essential part of winter hair care. Every time you wash your hair, do not forget to apply a good conditioner as it will help increase the elasticity, strength, smoothness and shine of your hair. Apply conditioner only on the hair strands to prevent breakage and rinse it off with lukewarm water. Say No to Heating Appliances: During winters, avoid using a blow dryer, curling iron, flat iron, etc. that dries hair out even more. Let your hair dry naturally. Too much exposure to heat in cold weather can make the hair more frizzy and damaged. If you are using any heating cosmetics products, make sure you apply a good heat protection serum in advance. Cover Hair: Whenever you are outside in the cold wind, cover up your hair with a scarf, cap or hat as it will help to lock the moisture of hair. Avoid Chemicals: Do not perm hair or use chemical-laden products during winters. Use only natural based hair colors during winters. Trim Often: If you are maintaining a length, make sure to trim your hair every month about a half inch to prevent any breakage from moving up the hair shaft which can lead to more trouble later. Winter can highly affect our hair with frizziness, breakage, dryness and itchiness. The above mentioned tips can help in keeping your hair in shape and good condition during cold weather. Use only herbal skincare products for hair as well as skin like OxyGlow hair care products.
