Cold Weather Hair Care

The snow has fallen.

Below zero mornings & hat hair makes managing your mane next to impossible, but the change in temperature actually helps keep the cuticle of your hair ‘closed‘, leading to shinier & smoother hair. Here are my favourite hair care tips & tricks to help you with the ‘most wonderful time of the year’.

Hair Masks

Moisture. Moisture. Moisture. Your hair is begging for it! If you’re like me & use hot tools everyday, you've got the perfect recipe for parched strands. Applying a hair mask once a week will help deeply nourish hair while preventing split ends & breakage. My favourite way to apply a hair mask is to shampoo your hair as usual, apply your hair mask & let it soak in while you finish your shower routine & then rinse!

Hat Hair

Heat & friction from the fibers in hats can create tons of static. To keep fly-away strands in place, apply a smoothing cream through your hair while it’s still damp & carry around a bottle of hair oil to apply on frizzy hat hair. This will refresh your hair & prevent that dreaded hat hair look.

Hair Colour

Lighter shades look gorgeous all year long, but there's a reason stunning brunettes pop up around this time. I mean, don't we all feel a little more sophisticated & sexy coming to the dark side? If you like your blonde, why not opt for some low-lights or a shadow root to help tone things down for the season? For some inspiration, check out my Pinterest Board below.
