Autumn has really started and before you know it winter will be around the corner! While everyone makes the house cozy and cozy, it is also important to think about caring for your hair during these seasons. The dry air and lower temperatures can have a bad effect on your hairstyle. But don’t worry: in this article we share some useful hair care tips to keep your hair radiant during the coming cold months.
Tip 1. Use less heat on your hair
Although it is nice to blow dry your hair immediately after a shower, it is better to do this less often during the cold months. Heat tools can damage your hair – especially when your locks are even more sensitive in autumn and winter. This not only applies to blow-drying, but also to using a curling iron or hair straightener. Would you still like to use styling tools? Then choose suitable tools, such as the BaByliss PRO tools. In addition, protect your hair well with heat-protective products of hairdressing quality. On the Vakappers website you will find good heat protection sprays to limit damage to your hair.
Tip 2. Use a sulfate-free shampoo
Use a mild shampoo without sulphates. Sulfate can dry out your hair, which can cause additional damage to your hair in the autumn and winter period. You would rather avoid that! A mild sulfate-free shampoo helps to retain your hair’s natural oils, repair and strengthen your hair.
Tip 3. Hydrate your hair well and regularly
In autumn and especially in winter the air is often drier. This can also have consequences for your hair. Prevent dehydrated hair by regularly moisturizing with quality hair care products. Consider a nourishing conditioner or a moisturizing hair mask. Even a few drops of oil can do wonders for dryness and frizz.
Tip 4. Have your hair cut regularly
Cold and dryness can make split ends worse. It is therefore important to schedule a haircut regularly to keep your hair healthy.
Tip 5. Protect your hair against the cold
If it is really cold outside, it is wise to protect your hair with a hat, cap or scarf. It is also important to let your locks dry properly if it has become wet due to rain, fog or snow. So don’t leave your hair in a bun all day while it is still damp.
