We all know that when winter arrives we are faced with cold winds, rain, foggy mornings and days spent shivering in the office as we wait for the central heating system to warm up the room. Unfortunately, this combination of factors can play havoc with our hair and mean that our normally sleek and shiny locks are reduced to a big frizzy mess of hair that suddenly becomes very difficult to control. It is important that you take extra care of your hair in winter as not only will this mean it looks nicer and is easier to style, but it will ensure it is still in great condition when the weather starts to warm up again and you can enjoy some days outside in the sunshine. So, what should you be doing to keep your hair looking glossy in the winter months? The first thing is to condition it well. This is something you should do every time you wash your hair, but it is extra important during the winter months. As well as using a standard conditioner every time you wash your hair, find an intense conditioning treatment that you apply once or twice a week and leave for ten minutes so that it really soaks into your locks and does them some good. When you are blow drying or straightening your hair it is a good idea to apply some serum or heat protective spray. There are some new oils around at the moment that do the job perfectly and will help to keep your hair soft and luxurious, even when it is being blown around in the wind. You should always blow dry your hair instead of going outside with it wet, or letting it dry when you go to bed at night. Not only will this increase your chances of catching a cold, but it will also mean you can damage your hair very easily, leading to a lot of split ends. Similarly, try to avoid brushing your hair too much or running your fingers through it a lot. Although this is very tempting when it has been blown around by the wind, it can cause more damage and split ends, especially if your hair is weak because it has been battered by the elements. Finally, on very windy or rainy days one of the best things you can do to protect your hair is simply to wear a hat, as these offer plenty of protection. Hair needs lots of extra care during the winter months so it is important you give it the attention it deserves.
